Bug: MechJeb different dV stats in VAB and Launch/TWR not updating on thrust limit change.

So I've been encountering the first part of my bug report for quite some time now, hoping that it'd be fixed in a new release or one of the dev builds, I waited on submitting an issue. Given that it hasn't been fixed yet I'd like to bring to your attention a bug I'm encountering where my DeltaV is calculated different from when I have my rocket in the VAB and when I have it on the launch pad, shown in these images.

I am using Dev build 474 and have encountered this since starting my KSP 1.0.x gameplay, I never encountered this issue on the old aero system (possibly the cause??).

Now for the second part to my report I am also experiencing an issue where the TWR calculations are not updating when changing the thrust limits on engines like it used to. I just starting experiencing this bug and have no clue as to what could be the issue with it.

Thats all I got, here is my output log. If you need any other information I'll be happy to give it, thanks!

Sharing the craft file and the used mods would help too

The TWR/EngineThrust is a mistake on my end
I guess the editor / flght change comes from a mass change. It would help to have the same screen shot with all the stats displayed

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Here is what you asked for, I notice now that the mass of the vessel is changing in between scenes so that is probably what is miscalculating my DeltaV.

And here is the craft file. By mods I'm using I'm guessing you meant the ones that are being used on the ship which is:
SpaceY
Proc Fairings
FASA Launch Clamps and Towers
Near Future Solar
Tweak Scale

Hope that helps! If you need anything else just let me know, thanks for your help as well!

I won't have the time to check today but I pushed a new dev version that change a few mass related things and that may fix this bug.

commented

Alright I'll check it when I get home and give you an update to see if it's fixed.

commented

Awesome! This fixed both of the issues, thanks sarbian!!

So unfortunatly the bug is back in the recent versions. I tried on 2.5.3 and now I'm using Dev 496 and I'm getting the different read-outs on my DeltaV stats. As seen below.
