I’m very confused right now because I built a lander for Luna and as I was about to begin landing, I activated the engine and it burned for about 3 seconds before stopping. I have no idea why because the tanks are still full and I see no reason for it stopping. Anybody know what’s happening?

    I just figured it out. I didn’t add any extra battery or solar panels. I feel really stupid right now

    @Bob9998 I separated the lander from the main rocket and tested it at the launchpad, problem still persists.

    @zeropol All of the fuel tanks are linked. I am wondering if my attempt to set up fuel draining from the outer to inner tank is causing the problem but everything looks correct.

    Maybe you have multiple fuel tank and only one of them with the fuel corresponding to your engine ?
    Maybe you have multiple fuel tanks and correct fuel, but separated by a "no fuel line" part ?
    (If you upload the craft, put a link here and @me, I'll try to fly it.)
