    cannot leave homeworld solar system

    Hi, I have a saved game in the space stage. My game is working fine. My daughter is playing her own game (same account) just reached that stage as well but is unable to leave her homeworld solar system. She can go back down to her planet or travel to the other planets around her sun but she can't go any farther. (again went back to my saved game and was still able to scroll up up and away just fine). Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated. (doesn't make sense that you couldn't play more than one game in space stage)

    Thank you:D

    Have you achieved the interstellar drive? You need that before you can leave your planet.

    YES she did get the instellar drive

    She got the instellar drive (if she hadn't she would she have been able to leave the planet's surface?) and was able to leave her planet's atmosphere and travel to the other ones around her own sun. She is unable to scroll up any higher to see other stars. Also got the mission to find other alien life forms. She just can't leave her solar system.

    Hotkeys work for

    No, i checked the mouse and tried the hotkeys, they work to go down and up like scrolling the mouse but they won't take me out of her solar system. I can close out of her game go to main menu and open my game and it all works just fine.
    Thank you for such quick response time (she's driving me nuts with wanting to play) (can't say i blame her)
    much appreciated.:)

    Also it doesn't freeze or anything and we can land on any of the planets right there around her sun and then lift off from them we just can't get any "higher" than her solar system. Also tried starting 2 different games from space age and after getting (interstellar drive) still couldn't get out of those homeworld solar systems. Same thing can fly to the planets right there but nothing more. Each time i checked my original saved game and no problems.

    (Not sure if this makes a difference or not) but i can see and fly to her saved game planet in my game can't terraform it or anything but i can get to it and land on it and fly around.
