Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 9 | Immediate Issues Of Note

Oh Sally...
Update 8 ended up smooth and dandy for me, it was even like the sneaky Devs had polished it every Thursday tick....maybe not..... but I just Upgraded my Odyysey Client and clicked on play = Crash-2-Desktop :cry:

Just played after Update. Planets look mighty fine, SRV sounds crisp.
I had the firegroup issue, and initially could not press my mapped "apply" (spacebar) button in the firegroup menue, either. It had no effect, although it did work in all other cockpit panel menues. I went to the Options - Controls, remapped some keys, logged out, logged in again, and my old firegroups were restored, all was peachy. I thought it hadn´t read the mapping file properly on first launch.
What I noticed, though, is that Guardian artefacts and Guardian materials among ruins and Structures behaved wildly today: items would float some 100ft up in the air, randomly drop from there at certain points. Materials from shot down Sentinels would either randomly vanish , or flip up into the air and then sometimes come raining down at some point, and if destructible panels were shot, the materials would sometimes, not always, flip off at insane speeds out of targeting distance. There seems to be a problem with locating the items in the grid, they seem to be randomly allocated all over the space in 3 dimensions

What do you mean by Reset Fire groups ?
You log in, and your ship´s and SRV´s firegroups are empty, and you can´t edit them.
I relogged, and everything was fine. Probably didn´t read my mapping file after the update, or wrote a new, empty file that was only later at second login overwritten with my former custom file. That´s what it felt like, anyways, what do I know how the launcher works?
 
Guys you can't release an update that causes almost 100% crash. That's just so low even for your standards Fdev. Absolute lack of next-gen (current-gen?) consoles, and an update that breaks existing game. Shame, get yourself together.
I had no crash today. I had a couple with Update 8, but not now.
 
After yesterday's update, when you are at the station and when you try to look at the properties of the installed weapons (laser) in the equipment on the ship, it constantly throws out of the game on the Desktop without any notification. This happens all the time only in Horizons. There is no such thing in Odyssey mode. Therefore, it is not possible to view the properties of the installed laser. Just click the mouse on it in the Equipment - immediately the game ends.
 
This is what I get every time I try to start a game in Open, Private or Solo:

Though I was able to buy a Scorpion paint job from the menu, so it is recognizing my account, which makes me believe it's do with Update 9 as I logged in not too long ago and everything was fine. The account is for CMDR Fizzatron.

Confirmed, some of the exobios (Bacteria, grasses and shrubs) are again not scannable - been to 4 different systems so far and same thing. Here are some short vids showing tool never activates scan ring.

To be fair, and although I'm a bit grumpy at the moment... I've had plenty of CTDs in the past, but none tonight - apart from that somewhat "special" tritium donation bug from above. And yes, I had also accessed my stored modules while buying my new MLCs. So 'stored modules -> crash' can't be a universal correlation.
Grumpy or not, whatever you are saying ain't true, it's on all platforms, when you try to open stored modules, instant crash. issue tracker report
