So if you run out of fuel it the self destruct button I assume!
It's nice to give SC a go! It's quite an experience walking around inside some of the big ships!
I haven't done the reset yet. I'm intending to do it later this morning.If you just have duplicate ships in the ship terminal, you are better of just living with it. They don't really hurt anything, other than making it more difficult figuring out which ship is the "one" good ship you can spawn. I think I've gotten up to 10 phantom unspawnable duplicate ships.
Doing a character reset almost always works, so if you've done it, odds are you will be fine. But that is one way to lose stuff. One of those bugs you "deal" with if you have been playing for a while.
Save the character reset as a last resort. Like me tonight, when I spawned without a head in PTU. No choice at that point but to do a reset.
And if you've already done it, hopefully you still have all your stuff.
(and my PTU reset worked fine, still had all my stuff)

I seriously do not want to be the regular doubter this time but this is really bad. Duplicate anything in inventory suggests that they haven't yet figured out how to build transactions with untrustworthy clients, which is a basic cornerstone of every software system that needs to model scarce resources in some way. This is a solved problem. Has been for decades - from banking to gaming. This is why sometimes an online game will roll something back or stutter a bit during an inventory change - a set of messages needs to be sent back and forth in a certain pattern for the backend to ack a transaction.
One reoccurant / known issue with a Gamepad is not being detected correctly, and duplicate signals being sent to the game, which can show as bindings not working or inputs not reverting to the defaults.

Well that was confidence building
By the sounds of it, there is a lot of finger crossing when it comes to performing a reset... And the results are... Unpredictable. If I'm going to do it though, doing it now before I build up any rep seems to be as good a time as any. I'll draw up an inventory so that I can see what goes walkies...
The issue with the duplicate ships is a hassle because if I retrieve the wrong one it crashes the game for me. So it's a 50/50 gamble every time I retrieve my ships whether it will mean a restart or not.
I agree that Support very probably don't know what has glitched and the best they can offer is a Ctrl-Alt-Del on my account and pray that I don't pester them again for a bit. I also suspect that this is the default response from them for the bulk of enquiries?
I'll let you know how I get on! The duplicate ships are annoying but the lack of hotas throttle is being even more of a pain. Yes I can play on kb/m but that isn't really the point.
Interesting! What third party app are you using and how do I check whether it is running in exclusive mode?
Yes indeed, these duplicate ships show up in the console screen where you retrieve or do an insurance claim for your ship. The crash to desktop seems to be an issue when your ship was destroyed and you need to do a claim rather than a simple retrieve command. But I haven't fully 'tested' the ins and outs of this bug.
this UI is so infuriatingly bad
can you find the indicator to tell how fast im going? speed control is important in sc pvp....
you might be able to see the tiny little carrot indicator here

"HID-compliant consumer control device" that brings to my mind image of something like cattle prod coming out from computer case and zapping the user
A few hundred when looking at ED + EDO, all the ship cosmetics etc...but the post I quoted didn't mention specific amounts...just something about spending money on a buggy alpha. I pre-orderedYou spent over a grand on EDO Moley?
Bit rash
