Ship flies uncontrollably

John Trasler shared this bug 4 years ago
Reported

A ship flies uncontrollably once it begins to fly. It will continue to accelerate until it hits an obstacle. Turning off power/thrusters does not stop the acceleration. The direction of the acceleration seems random, but is always in the horizontal plane.

I have seen this bug before, several months ago, and this workaround used to fix it; it doesn't any more. https://steamcommunity.com/app/244850/discussions/0/2259060348500655858/

I created this ship on a shared server (where it still works just fine), and built it on a different server using the projector. It cannot be controlled on the second server.

I attach a log file and a save game file. I don't know how to export the Blueprint, as copy to clipboard is disabled in Survival mode.

Hello John!

Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue. In regards to the blueprint, if you ALT F10 you should be able to enable creative mode tools just while you create the blueprint. You can access your save files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Blueprints. Select the correct folder where your blueprint is saved (local or cloud), zip the file and attach it here.

I don't think your save file worked sadly but the above should work for you :)

Kind Regards

Thanks Laura. I was able to create a local copy of the blueprint by renaming it (attached). I also think I have attached a save file.

It doesn't look as if the Attach a file worked - I don't see the files in the comments. I'm trying again.

Hello John!

Alternatively, if you are having difficulty attaching files you can optionally use Google Drive. When sharing a google drive link please make sure it is set to be downloadable by anyone with the link. :)

Hello John!

Thank you for this. I'm getting a warning about some blocks not being available in my world. Does your blueprint contain modded blocks? If so, can you please test your blueprint without the inclusion of the modded blocks to see if this causes an issue for you?

Kind Regards

Hi Laura, I think this version should have the modded blocks removed. The problem persists.

Sorry, missed a couple. This should have no mods. Still flies away on it's own. It's necessary to apply a small thrust in the x-y plane, and thereafter there is no stopping it.

Hello John!

Thank you for providing the unmodded ship. I have successfully reproduced the issue and reported it internally.

Kind Regards
