Horizons Weapons not firing

Hi folks,

I've not played in 6 months so perhpas this is a safty feature I'm not aware of but right now i can't fire weapons. My pulse lasers do nothing and the multi-cannons spin up (I can hear the chambers rotate) but that's it - noting comes out the pointy end. All weapons have sufficient power and the key bindings for primary and secondary modules work when I cycle to utility modules (shield bank, k-warrent and scanner).
 
Full pips to weapons and banks are chaged to full. I've tried changing the config between my custom, the Thrustmaster Hotas X default and generic joystick and still no luck. I take it there isn't a weapons override button? I've also exited bck to menu but i might do a full restart shortly.

Not that I am aware of.

If it is joystick communication, is it possible to fire the weapons with the default key press? It used to be the space bar, but haven't used that since I bought my joystick so cannot remember.
 
There have been some reported power management bugs in 2.2. This may be one of them that didn't get fixed.

Is this only happening with your third party stick? Or do your weapons not fire using ANY control input such as a keyboard or game controller?

If the latter is the case, try this...

I would suggest powering down EVERYTHING on your ship using the right panel "MODULES" section. Switch everything off, and then power essentials back up, then power each weapon up one at a time and test for normal function. This isn't a 100% guarantee fix, but it has worked for me when I had something similar to this happen back in Beta 6.
