Description

Sometimes when launching KSP and continuing a game, the KSC starts with the wrong view (see attached) and the camera is locked. No buildings respond to clicks, and the keyboard shortcuts for time warp etc do nothing. It's always this camera angle.

Escape to main menu usually works, but loading a save puts the game in a state where most keypresses get no response at all, even escape for main menu, though shift-F12 for debug log works still.

It may be timing/performance related as it's most common if there are lots of flights. It also seems easier to trigger if there are landed ships or debris in or near the KSC.

The KSP.log shows:

Fedora 21, KSP.x86_64. UI is GNOME 3.14 but seen under XFCE too.

Stock game. This particular save had KAC, KAS and KIS loaded before, but not at the time of the test, and I've seen this before I ever tried any mods.

I've seen this issue back in 0.24 too, it's not new in 1.0.2.

I don't remember if I've seen this on Windows too. I think so, but I'm not sure.

I'm seeing this too, on a Macbook Pro 2013

Workaround (at least on OSX) seems to be to quit/kill the game, and try again.

#3 Updated by Corax almost 9 years ago

As a workaround, clearing the input lock stack works for me and avoids having to restart the game. Simply quitting doesn't work reliably in my experience, probably depending on when the persistence.sfs was last updated.
Also, duplicate of #5003.

#4 Updated by terwin over 8 years ago

I generally see this when the KSP window loses focus after leaving the post-load screen and before the saved game is loaded.
Especially if I switch to a flash game in my browser while the saved game is loading.

This is on a windows 32 bit install with mods.

Closing this report out for now. If you find it is still occuring in the latest version of KSP please open a new report (and this one can be linked to it.) For best results, the wiki contains really useful info for when creating a report http://bugs.kerbalspaceprogram.com/projects/ksp/wiki.

You can also ask questions about the bug cleanup in the forum here: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/143980-time-to-clean-up-the-bug-tracker/ and tag @TriggerAu to get my attention
