Earlier when I got my hands on a terrain walker I noticed that after I had deployed the terrain walker and returned to my ship that the ship's tractor beam no longer worked.
whether or not I had actually used the beam installed on the terrain walker had no effect on this but uninstalling and reinstalling the ship's tractor beam seemed to fix the problem.
Changing the key binding for the tractor beam had no effect on the issue. I've only been able to test this with the basic tractor beam and none of the specialized variants.
Has anyone else come across this issue?
(I'm running the new version of Evochron on a machine running windows 7 64-bit, the update was installed over the steam version.)
/Edit: I Failed to mention that I've only tested this in Singleplayer so far
Also redeploying the Terrain Walker after reuturning it to the ship does not restore functionality to the Mining/Tractor Beam

It might be that you left it on in the Walker.
Try turning ut off before getting in to your ship.

I got this as well, but I didn't notice it had something to do with the walker. (I ended up selling and buying the tractor beam to fix)

Ok, here is a replacement EXE you can use to test the fix. It'll be applied to the full installer version shortly as well.
