inertia dampeners not working
I built a hydrogen flyer with 6 lifting thrusters but it wont stay in the air, it's more than capable of lifting itself but will not hover the moment I stop holding space, the only mod I have is the one that removes lightning damage. Ive tried turning the dampeners on and off a gain to no avail. am I doing something wrong?

Does the build have large pieces connected by rotor, hinges, pistons & such? The inertial dampers have never been good at accounting for weight that isn't part of the main grid the cockpit is on.

I believe I figured it out, By selecting all thrusters and turning the override to max, then back to disabled it started to work

All the more reason why I usually avoid using "thruster override". I use it for thrusters on sub-grids since it won't effect the thrusters on the main grid.

If you turn on just ONE thruster to override, then ALL intertial dampeners on all the other thrusters pushng in the same direction stop working, even if that means the ship starts falling out of the sky.
