Cant undock...

[76561197984503913]

Hey, just bought the game and im having probs undocking. Even in the training mission i go to launch and then nothing...i can look around and thats it. I looked at the youtube training video and when the guy clicked launch his craft auto disconnected from the dock but its not happening for me.

Spent so much time trying to figure it out, pressing all the keys.... i just want to get into ♥♥♥♥ing space.

I like the look of the game but all this messing about il end up going over the 2 hour mark and wont be able to get a refund..

you use your thrusters lol?

First off, make sure you've actually asked for permission to "Launch"

Then, as Jimmy said, apply thrusters. If you still get no hot thruster action, it's probably a bug. Or...you've somehow disabled your thrusters in the module tab by accident.

Have you filled up with petrol/gas? The pumps are just to the right of the docking bay and accept Paypal and Bitcoin. Oh sorry...was having a nightmare about a possible future. While you're at it - buy this luxurious paintjob for £10.

Does the same thing when i click on services, nothing comes up and i just sit there looking around, cant even get into any other panels and now when i click on controls in options nothing happens. I also have to use task manager to exit the game.

Buy voice attack. Bind the controls to the voice of "Undock you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ or I'll whip your ass into oblivion you scummy sick ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bastard"

The ship will duly undock and you are done.

[Chaunsey]

sounds like you're having some kind of control problem.

Validated game files and says 22 files missing... just waiting for that then il boot it up again.

Bring up your game list, right click on Elite dangerous, select properties, select validate game files - it will download any files missing or corrupted.

Ok - exuse me --- see you've already done that. lol. Forget I wrote.

I'm thinking you have a pre-flight check enabled. Look at the left side of the screen, find a list of buttons to click, click each and every one of them and off you go. Hope this helps.

Turns out it was the missing files, plays fine now, thanks fella's.
