EVA bug - everything freezes but the camera (Mechjeb)

[DD_bwest]

So ive been having this problem, and this may need to be moved to the modded installs, but all i have is mechjeb and i dont think its whats causing the problem cause ive seen it happen without MJ installed.

Essentially what happens is i hit EVA, and everything breaks.   any part windows are closed, wasd  do nothing,  escape wont do anything.  The only thing that responds is the mouse and the ability to move your camera.   The only course of action is to close it and re open ksp.   Sometimes when i do this, the persistent save wont have the ship i was controlling, the kerbal will be "lost" and ill have to settle for manually loading a quicksave.

has anyone had this happen?  or know of a way to make it happen less frequently?

sry for taking so long, got a tad busy.  also not the greatest on PC since im primarily a console gamer.  hope this works.  I have MJ installed, but its had it happen without it plenty of times.  if i gotta make a new log without it just lemme know.

Essentially it happens randomly, its have it happen on dozens of ships, around any planet or moon.  I hit EVA and it breaks.  I cant switch vessels, bring up esc menu.  no control over kerbal, nothing works, except i can move the camera, and if i right click on some things i can get a window that only gives me the aim camera option(oh and i can bring up the alt-f12 menu).  ive had this problem going back before the 1.2 pre release.  I was hoping 1.2 would fix things lol

 

I may continue to add info to this post as i figure out how to get it lol

I've never run into this, or heard of it before now, the log does show an error though.

Can you please try without mods?

sure, ill get rid of MJ and play for a bit,  sometimes it doesnt happen for a while,  then others itll happen over n over after restarting the game.

I've been trying for the last 6 hours to reproduce this in stock, and I can't.  so It most certainly seems to be a mod issue, now to narrow down which one.

it hasnt happened to me since i got rid of the mechjeb+MM, but ive had periods when it stops for a while then comes back.   I may have had something to do with module manager.

I doubt MM would be an issue. It is not active at all during actual game play. It only runs when the game first loads up or if you do a database reload.

The next time you have this problem, do the following

1. Open up the debug menu (Alt-F12)
2. Click on Input Locks. What you want to see at this time is 'No Input Locks in effect right now'
3. If you see anything else, any input locks at all then click the button that says 'Clear Input Locks'
4. Check and see if the game is working again.

If MJ2 is installed when this is happening, it may have an input lock listed as MechJeb_noclick. You should only ever see that if you have the mouse over an MJ window. If you see that during EVA or after a craft has been destroyed then that's a definite MJ2 bug.

I had the exact same problem, thanks Starwaster!

Moved to Modded Support as it seems to be a MechJeb bug.

[Bornholio]

This seems to be consistently happening for me on EVA.  Mechjeb_noclick in the current input locks each time it happens.

5 rescue/eva in a row had it happen.  Had Man-Plan and Orbit Info windows up each time.

My problem was having my orbit window over a kerbal and clicking through to the eva button.

move window solved problem...
