For some reason, the "exit" button no longer works. Instead of actually exiting the program, I get a message saying "Logging off in 10 seconds" or something along those lines, followed by "Logoff sequence aborted." I eventually had to switch over to windowed mode, open a terminal, and kill the process manually. Anyone else have this problem?

Do you have a joystick plugged in?
Right now if you are having problems logging off, please log off through the station.

Yeah, I was using a joystick. That could've been the problem.

if you move your joystick during the 10 seconds, then you will get that message"the aborting one"

cheers

BTW, don't kill the process manually, it'll just make your ship float without control for 1 min (for either bots or players to get you).

You can't use /logoff at all if your joystick has a throttle unless you are in a station.

I have a joystick attached, but don't use it for my control. It's used to modify things such as volume, or launch programs and scripts. Would this prevent logoff, even though I'm not using an HID in Vendetta itself?

Vendetta automagically configures itself to use all joysticks. You just have to set all axes to "None" in the configure program to logoff. Of course, that makes it if you have a throttle impossible to change throttle with keyboard, but we all have to have a tradeoff in life.

Any chance the joystick sensitivity will be toned down?
Everything I've read from the devs indicates that there will be spots where /logoff is needed to avoid long boring roundtrip flights to a station.

ctishman: How do you set your joystick to control your volume? My speakers' volume control knob is seriously wonky (in some positions I only get sound out of one speaker, or no speakers, or have everything be really staticy) and I'd really like to have an alternate way of controlling it other than having to pop up a terminal and run aumix every time.

Rogue, um, yes you can, if you don't move the throttle during that time that is (either at 60 or 0 is a good option).

If you set throttle to control "Acceleration" (setting it to "Throttle" doesn't work for me for some reason), it seems to be sending acceleration signals to the computer regardless of the throttle control's status, which breaks the logoff sequence.
