autopilot.log Hi!) I downloaded the latest binary release (autopilot_portable_v19-05-15-alpha-18.exe) After some tries set up the keys required for it to successfully start up, but after I hit Home nothing happens.If the ship was moving, it just stops. Hope this helps to get whats wrong. Unfortunately, I didn't get to test the thing)

Hi according to your logs you have only tried starting the autopilot when docked. is this correct? if it is then please try undocking manually then starting the autopilot. if you have already tried this then there is something wrong with the journal reading that needs to be fixed.

please follow these steps to produce a clean log file:

  1. leave the station and enter SC then drop out at a random place (away from a planet or sun)
  2. close everything down (autopilot & ED)
  3. delete/rename the autopilot log file
  4. start ED
  5. start the autopilot app
  6. start the autopilot (home key)
  7. wait for at least a minute
  8. b. if nothing happens close the autopilot app and send us the new log a. if the autopilot starts stop it with the end key and send us the new log

Hi! thanks for advice) It didn't help though, I

  1. Left the station, entered SC, dropped out in deep space away from sun or planets. 2.Closed everything down. 3.Deleted the log. 4.Started the apps. 5.Started the autopilot while floating in normal space. 6.Nothing happened. It seems like I keep doing something wrong. autopilot.log

Finally got it to work. Probably the problem was in Home being bound to Cargo Scoop. I rebound it to other key, reloaded everything, and pressed Home while just floating in normal space having my route plotted. Worked like a charm, did 10 jumps with d-scan hits and one fuelscoop no probs. Thx for the help!

hi while the cargo scoop issue was probably not helping i think another problem is that you didn't have a target selected before. i missed it in the first log file because i just assumed it was because you were docked.

i also ran into the keybind issue because i use that whole block of keys for all the toggle functions (cargo scoop, landing gear, night vis and lights) so in my fork i changed it to pg up and pg down and am working on making it changable via the taskbar icon. that is on the side for the moment because i want to test in the beta because i have been messing around with the computer vision stuff and don't want to mess up. if you want to use it don't worry, i test everything before each commit
