I was playing around with AMSO and time acceleration and I pushed a random button that locked the EVA astronaut. Does anyone know how to unlock the astronaut?

Thanks!:cheers::thumbup:

"locked"?

I suspect the answer you seek is in the documentation, anyway. "Doc\AMSO\".
 
Thanks. All you had to do is "Numpad-Enter".

Numpad-ENTER will lock AND UNLOCK (it is a toggle function).

Of course, the astronauts you want to lock (or unlock) must have the focus.

Lock/unlock function allow you, for example, the following:

Let your astronaut #1 walk in the desired direction and lock. Now switch the focus to astronaut #2 with "M" key and do the same. You have now the two astronauts walking in the desired direction, even without the need for you to maintain any key pressed. This wouldn't be possible without the lock function.

Thanks, ACSoft, that explained that one. I guess I need to actually run an Apollo mission in AMSO some time >.>
