The hotkey to change symmetry counts is no longer working for me.

[Clayel]

If I recall correctly, the button to increase your symmetry count is "X", however this is not working for me currently for no  apparent reason. I have a lot of mods installed, but I don't think any of them could mess this up. Can someone help?

This is a known issue. The mod Editor Extensions Redux has a button to restore that and other buttons to working as well as a lot of other nice feature I can't live without

Weirdly, this bug started when I had that mod installed, and when I uninstalled it the bug persisted, which is why I decided to report it. What's the button in Editor Extensions?

Something like "reset symmetry  buttons" or similar,  I'm not in the editor at the moment.  I'm thinking that correlation is not causation, but you could always try to replicate that in a test install and report a bug if it is so

Here is a better explanation of how this bug occurs and is not related to the EER mod.  From the EER mod forum page.  Basically if the game crashes or is killed while in the editor and a save is occuring....

• Note in very rare circumstances the symmetry and angle snap keybindings might be lost.  This would only occur   if another mod triggers the game to save its settings while in the VAB/SPH, *and* the game subsequently crashes  or is killed before exiting the building.  If it happens, you can easily restore the keybindings (X and C by  default) by hovering over the toolbar button and selecting the menu option "Reset Mode & Snap keys".

Thanks! This worked well.
