I found a workaround for the centre console not working [Q&A CPP-3]
Moderator: Moderators for English X Forum
Yeah, this issue seems to happen randomly when you enter the cockpit of your ship. A good way to tell is if your chair does not rotate when you go to sit down. For whatever reason, nothing in the cockpit animates when this happens, static screens still work but anything that's supposed to move, like the terminal screen that's suppose to rise up does not.
So far, I've just docked and re-entered cockpit to fix the issue, but it keeps happening randomly. Seeing how many people have this issue, it's beyond me how they managed to miss this in Q&A...

Information regarding a potential cause for the Disappearing menu between you and Yis
This issue has come up a lot, but it wasnt one i had experienced, so i spend the last hour trying to do things that might break X-Rebirth. Now I don't know whether i managed to break it per se but i have managed to work out one way/location where it happened for me.
I'm currently hunting around looking for a Trojan Drone for a certain mission, and a lot of the places i'm going to have PMC ships shooting at me.
As i came into Zone: Sinister Poem i was flying around the stations looking for a drone dealer.
What I found was (what i originally thought was a shipyard) Its an Arms Tech Supply 1 = buying fusion reactors. the Area that has amount and price was originally red and when i clicked on it to try and sell the reactors i believed i had, Yisha went through the requesting permission to land, at which point Ren stood up and walked through his seat then walked through the door. After this he went back and forth through the door and seat which also prevented the sector maps etc coming up. Once i used Enter > 5 to get to the crew quarters i spoke to both crew, an engineer and a marine officer, then used Enter > 5 to get back to the cockpit and the animations played correctly again.

EDIT
I've been playing around with a savegame i have in sector, Was looking for the same location again to try and check some extra bits when i got sidetracked into landing at a repair pad that had a drone dealer on it. The first time i did this, i overshot slightly ( going too fast, and was reversing back over the pad, I was actually receiving fire and taking damage as the docking cutscene started and Ren walked through seat again, off the ship on the ship and he walks through chair and menu doesn't come up.
I reloaded and tried again, no overshoot wasn't under attack no issue.
I tried again several times, those times i was taking damage as i docked i was hit by this bug, If i wasn't under attack I didnt have the issue/bug. Whether thats just a co-incidence or not i don't know.

Status/trading window missing
Shortly after obtaining the first freighter and assigning a captain, the window between Ren and Yisha, which displays status information (personal, trading etc.) is missing. For example when pressing MENU and (4) for trading, the screen which is supposed to pop up between Ren and Yisha is no longer existent and I'm just looking to Yisha.
Result: not able to perform any kind of buying and selling.
Only repair option is to load an earlier save. Possibly a glitch.

BUG - Plasma Screen for Trading Gone..
yep, it's gone. It disappeared on me while executing one trade, and it wont' come back.
I've re-started the game, re-booted my computer nada. When I enter the trading sub-menu, I turn to where the screen should be and, nothing, I'm sitting there staring at my co-pilot. No Screen

It'll get fixed.
Pretty sure it's triggered by something not firing right the moment that door you go through to get onto the bridge (in that cutscene sequence).
You can also press <enter>, then 4 to get off the bridge and then just activate the panel to go back if you can't be bothered using the drone trick [especially if you don't have any].
Works every time.

Menu Gone
When I call up to sell my energy cells I hear some woman say yes, the camera point to your co-pilot but no menu comes up to sell them. How do I get my menu back for trading any ideas?
Savegame showing the trade screen bug. [Workaround]
Savegame for anyone willing to give correcting this bug a crack.
When reentering the skunk the captain's chair doesn't rotate AND the trade window will not open.

Is game breaking.

Bug: Inactive cockpit animations - Tempary fix
So a few times I had a bug where the cockpit animations do not work like the door opening or Chair rotating which also makes the menus not work.
Not sure whats causing it but I found a temporary fix. Just go into your menu (enter) and select crew and visit crew now return to your cockpit and hopefully the animations work again if not keep trying till they do.

Lame, just read this. Saved after I'd sat down, loaded up my save and I can't do anything
Wouldn't mind so much but I've just been trying to find somebody to build my construction ship, got it all set up then saved. Flew somewhere "not enough fuel"
Fair enough, I'll load my save up and put it somewhere closer.
NOPE YOU CANT MOVE NOW LOLOL

Found a possible way for egosoft to find the source of the menu glitch. need yourhelp
I have noticed that after different things happen within the game. I save the file and even after resetting my entire computer the menu still doesn't pop up. However If I load any save game previously before the glitch starts it loads fine so this is what I ask your help in doing. Take 2 saves one before you notice this glitch and one after. Take both of these files as I just did and email them to info@egosoft.com under the topic "SAVED FILES BEFORE AND AFTER MENU GLITCH. and course listing which is which in the email. Perhaps if egosoft can look and see what we have in common in our save files they can know in what part of the programming this glitch is originating from and fix it. Because if we can somehow save something that makes it permanent that means it should be relatively easy to trace for them.
