[LAUNCHER] Anyone else having little launcher problems suddenly?

DragonIV · Apr 7, 2018

I'm seeing this kind of thing from the Steam version launcher as well since the last two minor update patches.

NascentChemist · Apr 7, 2018

Logging out and back in did not fix it for me.

Same issue.

Selecting other mode (i.e. going up and down on the list) and then back to Horizons (64 bit) allows to launch it for me.

Same issue.

Restarted the Launcher twice and now I have only a 'Purchase' option.

"Options/Check for Game Updates" may help, switched from Purchase button to normal for me.

Seems to come up with Purchase or Install at random. The "Options/Check for Game Updates" worked for me too.

Progress.

First it said I do not even own the game...

Then it said it needed an update. It did not.

Then it signed me in with my account but only offered me the "Play Demo" option which I don't think I have ever seen before in the launcher.

Well now at least I am having the same issue as the rest of yall where it offers Horizons but leaves a grey install button.

Its almost like it doesn't want me to play it. Maybe its a sign.

I'm getting the same message as above. Was working last night.

I Stopped Steam and restarted - fixed it for me.

CMDR Dreamstate · Apr 7, 2018

Same, I'm getting "Purchase" at the bottom :/

Gully Foyle · Apr 7, 2018

Mine says PURCHASE ?

I get this strange launcher behaviour whenever they install patches or updates. Have - until right now - never had it happen "just so".

Good thing is, my ship is now no longer using any fuel [big grin]
Great time for those long range missions, and for sure very environmental friendly. Don't think I'm going to raise a bug report

Synther · Apr 7, 2018

Steam restart works as well. The server claims there's issues though.

Halfoat · Apr 7, 2018

It took me about 7 open-and-closes of the launcher to get in; most times it only gave 'Purchase', once 'install' (ignored this) and eventually 'play' came up.

OldManKnott · Apr 7, 2018

Rebooted PC, ran launcher 5 times before got the usual screen, sorted.

Lyronix · Apr 7, 2018

Had this problem on the 31st of March I think and today. On the 31st it needed 3 tries, today somewhat 7 or 8 tries and hopping around in the menu (after it came up with install instead of purchase). Oh, and I'm from Hamburg/Germany, so no local problem.

Gully Foyle · Apr 7, 2018

reboot fixed it.
remote ip reset on aws prolly

Got this a week+ ago.
Just restarted launcher. Didn’t work. Restarted computer, worked.
I think clearing the cache should solve the problem.

There seem something minor broken with the launcher.
When I close the game and then restart the launcher, it do not show me "Play" in blue, it shows "Buy" in yellow/orange instead!
Then I closed launcher and startet again - then it shows OK the "Play" button.
Again closed launcher and restarted, then it shows "Install" in black.
Once more closed and opened launcher - now shows "Play".

So each end and new start of the launcher toggles its appearance at the moment...
Seems some issue in contact to the servers.

The same here.
