No turning/facing control when switched to a new mech (after mine gets destroyed)

[Scott]

This has been something that seems to happen maybe 30-50% of the time(?), didn't notice it for first 50 hours of game, but lately has been happening. If my mech gets destroyed, when I take control of a new one, I can't turn or change facing. Using PC, K/M. Wonder if anyone has had the same problem and found a fix. Only mod I think I've added recently was the TTRulez AI, but that is in such widespread use hard to imagine I would be only one it happens to.

I frequently get this problem as well...

I've found it is less likely to happen if I don't turn the mech left or right at the same time as switching.
If I AM turning as I Switch, then either I can't turn at all, or I'm stuck turning in a single direction forever.

it's a bug that has been around ever since they introduced mech-switching.

Thanks, glad to hear I'm not the only one! Sometimes I can clear it by switching to another mech. then back again. But annoying as hell... usually have to abort mission.

Its a mod doing it, I've had it several times but it never happens on vanilla. TTRulez breaks a lot of stuff, I stopped using it since lancemates are still useless even with it.
