[Solved] Constant pitching

Post by rCX »

I am using the latest svn version (12572) and under Ubuntu 9.04. During flight, my spacecraft yaws downward at a constant angular velocity, even when the velocity is zero. I have to compensate for this by pressing the up key every few seconds. This problem does not occur when the spec is activated. I can get more debug information if you tell me how to do it. Thanks

Edit: Suggestion fixed it.

I had that problem when I had my gamepad plugged in (Thrustmaster Dual Analog). Try unplugging any joysticks. If it's the joystick, we can work on what is causing the issue, if not, we can debug the application.

Thanks :D
Setting it to Joystick to "No Joystick" worked. Ubuntu mistakes the multi-axis accelerometers in my laptop for a joystick.

LOL. So you could drive a racing game by using the laptop as a steering wheel huh?

I'm glad that fixed the issue.

I had the same issue with a thrustmaster afterburner joystick.
it wasn't a Linux issue because it happened on windows and Linux.
turns out the problem was my mouse i turned off the mouse control and it fixed it.
People do a lot of work in the name of laziness.
Don't be one of them do it right the first time and do it now
Use GNU\Linux
