@NathanMikeska Thanks for confirming that, I suspected the issue was caused by something like that. The bug only occurred in specific situations, for example after taking off from the moon and leaving its soi. In the latest version of the small moons I've removed any quad sphere activation distance value and just set the transition distance to a very large value. The planet now switches from quad to the "map view" normals instantly on soi entry/exit.

The game uses scaled space spheres when outside a planet's SOI. Only a single detailed quad sphere will be loaded at any given time. I'd expect an SOI transfer to switch to a scaled space textured sphere after leaving an SOI (if not already switched). It shouldn't disappear completely. Are you seeing something different? This sandbox appears to be working like I'd expect.
