Dear support team,
the HUD of my ship is spinning like crazy since i was in an nebula. Nothing i've tried so far fixed the error.
1) join another server
2) switching HUD modes
3) playing SP
4) reboot system
I've recorded this and uploaded to YT:

How to fix ?
kind regards,
Rob

That's what happens when you enter a high energy nebula and are struck by its lightning/energy. It can also happen in combat if your Nav subsystem is damaged by weapons. Note how your Nav subsystem indicator on the lower left cockpit display reads '0' and is red in color. That means it is effectively destroyed, which throws off your pitch ladder, compass, and radar nav guides. You now either need to repair it at a station or purchase a repair device so you can fix it in open space.

Yeah, if you're still in the nebula and your nav system is getting zapped, you usually can't perform a hyperjump either. Only way out of those suckers is to pick the nearest boundary, line up with it, pin the throttle to max, IDS off, and lay down on the inertial forward thrusters to keep your speed rising, then just wait until you clear the nebula.

Late reply, but Yes, some repair at station fixed the problem. Thanks.
