That's the place for collecting problems and bugs to get solved them.
The importance describes the fail level of the issue:
- 3: Game is still playable with the problem or is not reproducible (Autopilot issues, Graphics problem, small performance issue, writing error, ...)
- 2: Workaround is possible or can be ignored (Ai autopilot + Station goes boom)
- 1: Crash, Plot-Stopper, no workaround, "core meltdown" (Crash)

Mouse disabled in main menu | While pressing a key on the keyboard and you hit esc to go to the main menu you can't use the mouse to make a selection. Only arrow keys work. | 3 |
Opening the map teleports you | Seems to be that sometimes going through a gate and immediately initially travel mode and switching to the map breaks you. You're teleported back to the original system you jumped from, instead of the map you get a glitch screen, and any future jumps cause you to teleport back once you open you map again. You can't get out of this state unless you reload your save. | 2 |
Landing a ship in third person mode | I cant land a ship in third person mode. Thats cause the landing support visual isnt displayed (red dot turns green). If i enter first person mode, it instantly succedes. | 3 |

In map mode Legend list is Glitching | Open Game --> Map --> Legend (right side on the map view, little "location" symbol) When i move the list up and down, there are some graphic glitches. I still works (i hope, got no other problems), but is a graphical bug.

Uncontrollable ship after loading a save. | When loading the game while the player is seated in the pilot chair, controls might not work. Workaround is to stand up and sit down again. | 2 |
Highways - Gate issue | Traveling through some highways may "teleport" you to another end of the universe. More information required / see in forum. | 2 |
Repairing data leaks destroys them | Occasionally for random reasons while you repair data leaks they all of a sudden get "destroyed" mid-repair process. | 3 |
Yaw and Roll currently not customizable on X-52 Pro H.O.T.A.S. (and possibly other H.O.T.A.S setups) | Yaw is always Z axis and Roll is always X axis on the X-52 Pro H.O.T.A.S. When the settings are changed, in control options, they either do nothing or are combined with the factory settings. This means that if you want to twist the flight stick left (Z axis -) to turn left, the ship will always roll left regardless of your settings being programmed to turn. Additionally, if you want to tilt your flight stick left to roll the ship left, which makes a whole lot of sense, the ship will always turn left. There is currently no way to undo this setting. If you try to set the digital functions for "Z axis -" to be turn left and "Z axis +" to be turn right, then set "X axis -" to roll left and "X axis +" to roll right, the ship will combine the settings together on you even though the analog controls are unmapped after doing this. For example, you twist the flight stick left and the ship both turns and rolls left simultaneously. Leaning the stick left also has the same exact effect. I have spent several hours trying to remedy this and have been unable to find a fix. | 2 |
Declined (No bug of X4)
- X4 + OBS Capture / Stream issue: https://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?f=146&t=402317
OBS (open broadcast software) is not able to capture X4 in Game Mode. Thats an issue of OBS / Vulcan API, not X4 itself.
Developer Response from OBS:

"Vulcan games can be counted with one hand and so there was no priority to implement game capture for it (beside that it's difficult to do)"
