it seems to happen if you install more than 1 ion disruptor- just 1 and you see the sparks, but more than 1 and its invisible - dont know why...

Thanks for this thread - I had the same trouble with invisible IonDs last night and was wondering what was up. Happy to know that just using 1 will fix it!

yep, I have the same problem, the IonD's fire in a huge flash then vanish, but for some reason it only happens when I pilot capital ships NEVER when I'm in a fighter.

I also ran into this problem last night when I put IDs on my new Centaur. Today I found out how to move the cockpit position to the front where it should be according to those huge viewports on the model, and lo and behold, I could see my IDs fire now, both of them. I guess the different angle makes a big difference to the rendering engine.

Yep. A known bug.
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games
