Hi there,
I bought SSE when it came out on CD. Meanwhile I moved on with PC's, now I got a Windoze 10 machine. Also I lost the CD, so I couldn't reinstall. Therefore I bought another version, this time on Steam. No probs at all.
I played a couple of Greenpeace campaign missions, no problem too. So today I tried to carry on with that, playing the No Scutling mission. Much to my surprise I could release the mooring lines, and put the bowthruster on, but when trying to get dead slow ahead the thing won't react. Even when manually manipulating the thrust control it moves forward then back to zero again. Bowthruster is OK, but main engine fails completely. How can?
I tried to restart the mission, same thing. Next I tried roaming with one ship I've done dozens of times before, same problem. No thrust.
Is this a "reward" for completing 5 other missions in Greenpeace OK?
FWIW, it has nothing to do with the F12 key, or my Numlock is off or whatever. It simply fails to do what it normally does OK. Anyone???

PS: after a few hours I fired up SSE again, tried roaming one ship, no probs, then went to the campaign again and played Greenpeace nr. 6 without any problem. So an incident? Cannot play too many campaign-missions in too short time? Probably will remain a mystery.
Most important is that all works OK again.
