Hi CMDR's.
After the upgrade to Horizons 4, i got an issue I don;t seem to be able to fix. I needed to cool the system after a rather close (to put it mildly...hahah) encounter with 2 stars in ridiculously close mutal orbit - like a Rizzla skin between them kinda thing. Hit my 'deploy heatsink' button ('B' - same I've used for ages) and... nothing. Managed to get away, but very singed on the edges and consoles/modules etc. Once cooler, & safer, in deeper space, I checked the settings, joystick set up, fire groups, modules, even the gorilla-tape holding my ship together, etc etc, all as should be. Can't get it (heatsink) to work at all now unless I bind it to a fire group - which the blurb at the side says I do not have to if I have keyed it...so..er?
Worse, later that day - and after a bit of opportunistic, yet satisfyingly random, violence - I bagged a nice bunch of (12) wierd blueprints (illegal salvage), headed to a station with a Black Market..close in, ask for docking, hit 'silent running' ('V' key on my set up) and....nothing. no silent at all. Not good in a high security locale...so I boosted in regardless and got away with it..haha..this time...
So, after a bit more testing, neither of said resources will work. At all. Any solutions or work-arounds appreciated! (btw, same issue arose when i re-launched on Horizons original. Now i'm doubley scuppered...or as they say; "some daze you eat the bear, and on other daze...?" Cheers.
