I don't know why but my lower arm actuators suddenly stopped working in the middle of a match in the bog and they don't seem to be working again...

how can i fix that?

There is no key set for arm-lock (or toggle). Even if i set a key it just snaps the view to center.

Edit:
It works in testing grounds nut not matches.
seems like everyone having the same problem

Yeah same here, doesn't work in testing grounds either - game's completely broken for me as I refuse to use a mech w/o arm actuators.

I think that may have to do with the loss of the arm actuator during the battle.

That's just my guess.

I was just wondering if this was happening to other people, making it extremely hard to aim at light mechs without the arm actuators working. Yes I have them installed, yes both of my arms are still attached to my mech, they are just no longer working.

Same problem here.

I've tried removing and readding the actuators, enabling and disabling armlock, toggling armlock, restarting the client and nothing seems to work. Running the repair tool right now to see if that fixes it.

Update: the repair tool didn't fix it completely. I tried an IS mech wtih lower and hand actuators and it was fine after the repair tool. For Clan mechs I removed the actuators, saved. Re-added and saved and it seems to have fixed it.

I can confirm this. TBR with actuators works in testing grounds, but not in game. The arm reticule separates from the torso reticule vertically, but not horizontally. Using SHIFT to toggle arm lock works as expected; the reticules do not separate. Have quadruple checked loadout. Again, works in testing grounds, but not in game.

Edit: Reinstall did not fix.

It might have something to do with this...

I guess we can't have nice things?

Just chiming in to confirm that I too am having issues. Only on clan mechs, and only the lower arm actuators are gone; the upper arm actuators still work fine.

Update 2: I managed to get through 2 matches before this reverted to fail. Filing a ticket.

I'm having this issue as well, I was wondering why last night, my Warhawk was able to move its arm side to side, and today, it can't - no matter what loadout I put on, the lower arm actuator is no longer functioning.

Your lower arm actuators were working after the repair tool?

tried the repair tool but no effect. still no horizontal movement.

Indeed, worked fine earlier today , seems this ac2 change affected clans so much they droped the lower actuators...
So can anyone with an tweeter acc notify Russ about it, as he posted a tweet not too long ago so he might see it.

They were after I ran it, removed then saved, then added them back, saved. It broke again after two drops in public queue
