I can confirm that I get softlocked even with the mouse, I always use the mouse. Tried with hotas because, maybe I'm bass ackwards from you, but no. softlocked. It's like there's an invisible popup window there, have you tried scrolling up with hotas? you'll see some message about biowaste. It's just f-d up. I'm going to play something else till they get their crap together. This is amateur hour from a company that made a mind blowing space sim. I would hate to be in their developer "war room" right now.
