If you mean when the CC is in space and the drone is deployed, in the bcmtutorial.html it says you can use the SMD, Stores Manifest Display. "You can also use this mode to view the stores of your mining drone when deployed on a planet as well as any cargo pods you may find." Hope this helps.

It's working! Everytime now. I tried updating my drivers to 28.32 but still had the same problem. I then shut off Hyper Jump FX in my Config and I haven't had the problem since. Thanks Papi and everyone else for your help!

The target is selected in the TACSCAN and does appear in the CVD before I hit SHFT+9 to HJ. I'm not trying to be a pain. I'm a big fan of this game and have been since BC3K. Maybe it's something in my specific configuration, I don't know. I'm just looking for some suggestions.

You do know that velocity goes to 0 and stays there for a moment before ship actually makes the hyperjump? Do you have hyperjump effects on in your config? - I'll try upgrading the video drivers as suggested. - Yes, I know it goes to 0 before the jump. With this problem it just stays there. - Yes, I have hyperjump effects on. Maybe I'll try shutting them off as a test. Thanks for the suggestions.

I wish it was only styrofoam. After starting a new game (no damage) I selected Genesis as my target through TACSCAN which I believe is over 1,000,000 km away. I hit SHFT+9 and nothing. I can exit the game at this point and then go back in with resume and the ship will activate the hyperdrive and head to Genesis. I have a screen shot I took when this happened where I click on cloak and it shows 'Clocking system locked during Hyperjump' and my speed is 0. I'm baffled. Tried complete uninstall, scan disk, defrag, reinstall, patch 1.0.07 and I could play one game then it started up again. Maybe I'll try going to XP, been meaning to anyway. I really want to play.

It's not a range issue, I'm way over 1000km away. When this happens all ships stop moving. Also the range to target seems to cycle back and forth between two values very quickly. I am able to manipulate other systems during this problem, I just can't move. Like I said, when it occurs even the thrusters won't move the ship.

My first post I love this game but I am having this weird problem. I start a brand new roam mission, right out of space dock, I plot a course, turn on the autopilot, it says engaging hyperdrive and...nothing. I try shutting off autopilot press a number key for thrust and...nothing, although the thrust indicator does move up. Tried selecting a spacestation and SHFT-9 and...nothing. I tried a fresh install and repatched to 1.0.0.7 and same problem. Running ME and DirectX 8.1 my other info is in my profile. Help I want to play! PS Couldn't even run the game with my CD-RW drive although I could install it, I guess it doesn't like Safedisc. Had to add a second Goldstar basic 8X CD to run the game.
