k, i have 3 JTL enabled accounts and on all three chars, the boosters on all their ships would appear to be disabled - this is also on the sorosuub, so it's not a component or power issue, it would appear to be an ingame setting of some sort and it's killing me because i can't figure out what it is, but it's hampering the performance of whatever ship i'm using at the time.
i'm using a joystick and have rebound the key multple times so that it's on only the keyboard or simultaneous use, and still nothing.
if anyone has any ideas or suggestions, i'd be very appreciative.
interestingly, i just tried this on a different machine on two chars, and they STILL don't work - so, it's not a mapping issue, it's not a file that's on my local machine that's corrupted - must be a server-side issue, to carry across to two characters on two machines
but it's so wierd - if it's server-side & not client-side, why's it affecting all 3 of my chars? would suggest it was a local issue that was pushed back to the server.
i don't know. if anyone knows the text command for boosters, i'd appreciate it ![]()
My boosters do not work on any ship, Yacht, X-Wing, or Y-Wing on Flurry.
My boosters do not work on my ship on TC either (Yacht)
I've been through the re-binding keys, double and triple checked boosters, installed different boosters / engines as an experiment, launched with bare minimum components installed, and even unloaded everything from the Y-Wing, re-deeded and unpacked the Y Wing again and re-installed everything.
Currently I'm trying a full scan; to see if that helps.

Somehow I missed this thread and ended up posting my own.. but here is my problem also.
I have /bugged this and have asked other friends in-game and they don't see to have this problem, but I do.
For approx 3 days now I have not been able to use my booster. For a few days I started using an overload chip given to me by a privateer friend. My X-Wing was at about 14200 power, but Reactor drain at 14800. I had no problem using any systems or the booster. Recently I cannot get a booster to work at all. First I checked my keymappings, I remapped and nothing. I tried a different booster, staying under my 14200 power. I tried moving things over to my Y-wing chassis. I tried numerous configurations, stripping my ship to nothing but a booster, reactor, engine, basically bare and still the boosters won't work. I have tried about 5-6 different ones in different configs. I have tried all new boosters purchased from shipwrights, new reactors, still nothing. The booster charge shows up on the HUD, but when I press either B, or whatever key I reset to, nothing happens. Has anyone had this problem and fixed it?

If you haven't already, please /bug this. I'm hoping this will be fixed before I get back from vaca on Sunday. I looted a nice booster, 2050 fuel 150burn 49 regen, can't wait to try it out... Oh, and its around 4k mass
as mentioned in a previous post - "i spent about an hour working on this last night with a CSR, who wanted me to log out one last time, despite my protestations, as she wanted to see if logging in fresh & recreating fresh profile folders helped any (although i'd done this 3 times laready) - while i was logged out, she closed the ticket with some usual bs like "this is a coding issue and i'm only a csr and therefore can't help"
gonna log in, in a few and try the /boosterOn command, but i don't hold out much hope
