When I set Do_Jump command in a way point, say way point 8, the way point will disappear and the grid line will now connect from way point 7 direct to way point 9, then the plane will jump FROM way point 7, instead of way point 8, to the new way point.

The worst had yet to come, I set up a auto landing approach in the same mission, The plane fly to the way point as plan, when it reach the final way point, it was still 10 meter above the ground then turn toward me. I immediately switch to manual mode and fly away from crowd and land safely.

What happen was when I set Do_Jump command in way point 8, that way point disappear from the map, but it is still appear in the command line. All the altitude setting had been shift one place up, i.e altitude for way point 10 now become altitude for way point 9 and so on. I can confirm this because when I mouse over the way point in flight planer view, it show the wrong altitude. As a result, my final way point for " Land "  for which the altitude had set to 0 now become 10 meter, which is my second last way point altitude. That's why my plane reach the final way point with 10 meter altitude and turn randomly because it HAD finish the mission.

It is very unfortunate while update the MP a major bug occur. In my case it is potentially dangerous. Is it possible for the development team to do more testing before release of new update? Yes, I do know this is an open source program, but a lot of us take the UAV project seriously.

Last but not least, please fix it ASAP. Thank you
