heres a quick fix that worked for me, when in space, say for instance sol, have your hud set the way you want it, press U and bring up your loadout page, now down bottom save your loadout, doesnt matter what you name it, now go change ship, this will warp you out and back in, in the ship you have chosen, now hit change ship again back to your original ship and you should find your hud has remained the way you had it, further test by beaming down to esd or the academy and back up, you should find your hud is exactly as you had it without certain things being re-arranged or gone.. hope that helps..

Tried this and it still didn't work, it's perma messed up for me. The only thing that fixed it was I got lucky and was close to my next rank up to get a new ship.

Yeah.. unfortunately, it seems to be a rather nebulous bug with the loadout system and ship slots. My advice for when it happens is to swap back and forth between ships and then save your loadout in sector space, but there's still a chance you'll get plagued with the issue(I still have a ship that un-equips its batteries every time I dock at a station).

It's probably my biggest concern as they continue to move forward and expand this loadout system.

Go to a space map, get your setup as you want it, save the loadout, remove one of the consoles, and then load the loadout you just saved. That will prevent the bug.
You need to do this every time you do a change in your gear, at least until the bug is fixed.

this game has some strange glitches in it for a game that has been out for ages.

This bug effects my fed char but not my kdf, and it is every single zone I do it resets.

Game refuses to load into fullscreen despite being set in luancher and game option, have to set it to fullscreen every single load up.

Exchange purchases dont refresh the window most of the time, simply loads it to a black screen.

The dyson sphere mission with the sun has a blur line so you cant see the surface of the sun, supposedly fixed last patch but is not.

I bring these up not because they are big bugs, but little ones that should be fixed easily and ages ago, found posts about most of these bugs from 2011!

The action bars resetting has been around since launch. It eventually caused me to stop playing. So I was very happy to see a system for managing action bar loadouts per ship. I was not so happy to see that it does not work.

Presently I simply dont change ship. This stops most problems apart from one character that resets when zoning.

Here is the official forum post relating to the problem. They have said they wil make any announcements concerning this problem in this thread:

"The dyson sphere mission with the sun has a blur line so you cant see the surface of the sun, supposedly fixed last patch but is not."

I got round that by disabling post processing for that part of the mission. Ye its not a permanent fix but makes it a little easier on the eyes.

There is also apparently a problem with active doff resetting:

I enjoy this game a lot altho you get the feeling, a group of guys are running it who just dont have a handle on making changes to the code. A lot of problems you can just sort of ignore as they just dont seem to get around to fixing them but the action bar resetting was a game breaker for me.

Im a new player and have come across this issue aswell. It could be frustrating and I stopped playing because of it. Like you, I asked and researched around for a possible cure or work around method. And I found it. Although not a complete fix, but still effective is using "Loadouts" feature. This way i can manage and save any changes i make on my skill tray and revert back to it everytime im hit by skill bar glitch. thats my method atleast and ive managed.

Unfortunately the loadout system is not working as intended. Hence they are investigating the issue.
The only fix I have seen that works for a lot of people is to loadup everything how you want it, save the loadout, take an item off the ship, replace it, reload the loadout, zone.

Hopefully they will sort it out along with the fps issues and the other problems from season 9.

Thats not the case for me. Im not having problems with loadouts at all.

i just reload again if and when it (skillbar bug)resets,which is very seldom unless i retrain a new doff skill or change doff completely.

Lots of variation on how its happening and how (some) managed to fix it:

edit- reading that again I realise you are having the (a version of) problem, its happening seldomly, when you make a change, but you dont have a problem with it happening.

Personally, I find it unneccesarily aggravating. Its a good game.

found a small fix but only with C-Store ships unfortunatly, discharge the ship claim it back for free takes 2 mins literally and im sure when u upgrade a c-store ship to (T5-U) its free to upgrade again, that works for me until they get round to fixing it.
