Well, I've searched far and wide, but I can't seem to find anything relevant, so here goes.

I have an odd glitch in my installation where when I travel to the moon in the DGIV from LEO, the maneuvering reference doesn't change, so the surface MFD and HUD still reference Earth, as do the autopilots. This would be annoying, but acceptable, since I can take care of things manually through the orbit MFD, but when landing, another problem arises: the moon seems to have no surface. I continue past 0 altitude and toward the center of the moon every time. I haven't had the chance to test it on any other bodies or with any other craft, but I'm assuming the problem isn't limited to the moon.

I've dropped some cargo and some UMmu's on the surface, and they seem to connect just fine, but not the DGIV. I'm clueless as to what's going on, so I'm hoping some of you fine people may have experienced this, or know what the issue is.

My installation is clean, latest official version, except for IMFD, Re-entry MFD, DanSteph's mods, the XR Fleet, and the high-res textures, if they count.

I hope this can be solved without too much trouble. Hovering at 0 altitude and pretending I'm on the surface just isn't much fun. :(
 
What's the value read for 'G' at the bottom of the orbit MFD?
 
At some point near the moon I recall a .18 G. Orbits are fine, and the gravity seems to be normal.


EDIT: I just tried it again and got 1 G at the surface.

EDIT again: Just tried it with the XR2, works fine. Evidently the problem is limited to the DGIV.

Yet another edit: I'm doing a Mars mission that seems to be working just fine. Perhaps something with the specific scenario I used before?
