    Summary: HV does not rotate anymore after switching on thrusters and engines

    Description:
    I have a HV for the very early game with a fridge.
    I am switching my lights, thrusters and engines off with a Custom on the main control panel to save fuel
    When a get back, turn my lights, thrusters and engines back on, the HV moves forward, backwards or sideways, but I can't rotate the HV with my mouse.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    Get in the HV
    Turn on the lights, thrusters and engine by turn on Moving on the main control panel
    Steer the HV with the mouse

    Screenshots, Crash Logs, any other Relevant Information or Download links:

    In an older version of Empyrion, this happend as well. But in that build, thanks to a tip,
    I could go into the statistics panel and this solved the issue. This does not work any more.
    Even worse, the roll, pitch and yaw are zero. Only option is to guit back to main menu and resume my game.

    Did you check if the Torq/Rotation Sensitivity settings are eventually at 0(Zero)?

    When removing the HV hover engines & re-placing them the issue goes away.

    Any idea how this can be made to happen again when the HV engines have be re-placed onto the HV ?

    Rotation Sensitivity are all set to 10.

    When i just restart Empyrion, it seems to work. But it will happen soon during normal gameplay.

    From having the game just reloaded, this seems to do the trick:
    Turn off the thrusters and engines using the shortcut Moving
    Power off the HV completely
    Exit the HV
    Take out some items out of the cargo box into the inventory and back.
    Enter the HV
    Power on the HV
    Put the Moving shortcut back to active.

    I actually found an easier way to do this.
    Turn off the thrusters and engines using the Custom Shortcut
    Exit the game
    Resume the game
    Turn on the thrusters and engines using the Custom Shortcut

    Can confirm this happening for me too. Exp 1.5. Solo.
    Steps to reproduce:

    Park your HV somewhere, turn off Thrusters in Controlpanel.
    Leave Game.
    Return to Game.
    Switch Thrusters on again.
    Try the yaw axis.
    No reaction.

    Reload save with trusters on again fixes the Problem everytime.

    100% Reproduceable.

    (Sidenote: applies to Vanilla Solo and Vanilla Dedi 1.5.)

    Input Hardware Status: Nominal
    Logs: Nothing unkown.

    From my observations: Left/Right thrusters turn on as expected BUT don't react to input event's as if they where still switched off.

    Requesting Bug Report Status Change to:
    Severity: Blocker.
    Status: Open.
    Reason: Reproducible.
