All_Hail_Autostrut Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Hi, I've been experiencing an infuriating bug every time I try to launch a craft. I'll build a craft, launch it, revert back to VAB, make changes to my craft, and the launch button just won't function. I can press it, it will make a "click" sound, but my craft won't launch. All other UI still functions. If you press the button enough times, eventually it will work. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Hail_Autostrut Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 Also, this seems to correspond with my vehicle saves being deleted. I wrote about this and found a work around over in this thread: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tevac Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 can confirm the missing launch button functionality, very annoying and another reason why I will need to wait for the first patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmus Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 This happens to me when you load a saved game. From what I have noticed so far, when you load a save, the game enters a somewhat buggy state and unexpected things can and will happen. The launch button not working being one of them. The current workaround I have found for this is to just start a new campaign if I ever leave the game, because loading is currently not worth it. And yes, this includes quicksave and quickload as well, which means all my missions are currently "one shot" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elfmaze Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Just ran into this one as well. Can't seem to figure out how to fix it. Even tried closing the game and reopening. Can't get anything to go to the pad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Hail_Autostrut Posted March 14, 2023 Author Share Posted March 14, 2023 Don't know if this helps, but if you click it for long enough (or just wait) it will make a "ding" sound and the bar at the top that says [Kerbol / Kerbin / KSC / VAB] will disappear for a fraction of a second then reappear and set your launch are to "Launchpad 1". Also, I click the launch button and then pressed space bar (I think) and it made the Kerbal voice sound-effect that happens when you start you engines and then played the inflight music. Soooooooo annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenixevo Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Same Garbage problem, Came back to this dumpster fire after months hoping I could actually play the game but they cant program a Launch button to work in a space game............. Just wish I could get my money back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ionized Xenon Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I've found that launching by clicking on the launchpad works just fine. (I have the glitch too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
