I often have a stuck booster button, when I launch from base. Hitting the booster button usually ends it. Today I was unable to get out of boosting mode... I rammed straight into a rock.
Funny thing is, my sig went down to normal, while my screen moved around as usual during boosting and the accel stayed the same.
Weird bug, deadly bug. (Cost us a damn miner)
I also know that bug. The boost animation runs, but boosters are off... /glare.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":glare:" border="0" alt="glare.gif" />

The history of open-source Allegiance is paved with the bodies of dead code branches, forum flame wars, and personal vendettas. But a community remains because people still love the game.
The same applies for sidethrusters which is annoying since it takes a while to realize why the autopilot isn't working. I'd love to see a fix in a future release.
Luckily the almighty "esc esc" trick works here too! I also regularly have this problem (and also the sidethrusting out of base without input) when I dock doing weird stuff.
I know the standard bug but was pretty suprised, that it did not turn off again until I rammed that rock.
Maybe it is time to fix that stuck button bug. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
