I have played Freelancer long ago and wanted to return to the old classic, but am new to Discovery. I am trying to play Discovery on a private multiplayer server, and I have an issue with ship engines randomly dismounting rendering me unable to move. This occured multiple times, either when I exit the game in open space and load back in later, or when the game kicks me out of the server.
Sometimes when enemies appear the game boots me out and when I load back in the server my ship engine is unmounted and since I am in space I can't move at all because of it. There are no bad connection signs or anything prior to getting kicked out, it happens suddenly and only in combat, I did very long cargo hauls with no issues.
If I load my character while docked on a station, the engine is also always unmounted, but at least I can mount it right away in that case.
Is this a known bug? Any help would be appreciated.
I am not playing on the Discovery RP 24/7 server, this is on a separate private multiplayer server, but we are using the Discovery mod, and it happens for other people on the server too, and for any ship.
