I've been having a problem where my engines "restart" while i'm flying in space. It's like I'm going full speed and all the sudden it's at 0 and accellerating back to full speed (if people are following behind me, they'll fly right past me).


Anyone else experiences this?

Yes, it happens "visually", but the game is still reading you as going full tilt.

I think it's part of the game. Happens everytime I go into a nebula.

It happens when ever your client synchronizes your position with the server, and changes your position to where the server says you should be.


This happens on the ground as well as in space.


Its irritating as heck. but im used to it.

Yep, it happens to me too every few times. Until now I thought that it was because I overloaded my engines but now I see that it has nothing to do with it, heh.

This happens to me when I am on autopilot and on a straight line to the station. The engine will occasionally cut to zero then restart to full. Usually happens 2 or 3 times before I make it to base.

Happens to me all the time in a lot of different situations... especially annoying when you're on someone's tail.

It seems to happen to me if I get into my inventory, datapad, hyperspace map, zonemap, etc...


They will cut out then kick back in. I really hope this doesn't happen in combat, though it isn't like I can keep up with my enemies anymore.
