As the title says, Stormfall managed to break the auto-fire function for weapon primary fire in shooter mode - used to be I could just hold my left mouse button down and my weapon would keep firing until I released it and now it doesn't do that anymore, which is severely irritating not to mention crippling in combat.

What it does now is I'll press the left mouse button and the primary firing mode will trigger ONCE...then I have to release the button and press it again.
Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

#LegalizeAwoo

A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"

"It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
"We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
Passion and Serenity are one.
I gain power by understanding both.
In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
I am a shadow, darkness born from light.
The Force is united within me.

    I don't ever recall it working the way you stated and I only use shooter mode. Is it possible you had some type of gaming software that repeated the command for you?

    I just reported almost the same issue. Glad I'm not the only one. Without a fix for these, I can no longer do ground.

    Shooter mode is working normaly for me. Is only during the ground parts of the new missions arc where you can't fire if some friendly unit is in the way or there are no targets near your sights. Everywhere else is working 100% correctly.

    Well, whatever the issue was, it seems to have been fixed as I was able to have continuous fire holding down the mouse button in Pahvo Dissention last night.​​
