Launch Button Not Functioning

[All_Hail_Autostrut]

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?

Also, this seems to correspond with my vehicle saves being deleted. I wrote about this and found a work around over in this thread:

can confirm the missing launch button functionality, very annoying and another reason why I will need to wait for the first patch.

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"

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

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.

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.

I've found that launching by clicking on the launchpad works just fine.  (I have the glitch too)

Removed - lack of ability to read on my part apparently when it comes to a mod update

This is still happening to me. Lunch button in VAB not working.
