out of combat. on campaign layer.

I lay in a course to some system, then I evade something, and from that point on, I gotta steer by mouse or the fleet does not move.
or I go into map again and tell to fleet to go there...

I figure there must be a key that re-enabled the autopilot?

I searched before asking, even asked chatGPT but I got nowhere

where in the menu is that?
It's on the 'resume course' button in the main campaign screen, under the information about the autopilot course you currently have set; if you've been using the mouse for that then possibly it's been obscured by the cursor.

I didn't see it (or, for that matter, the shortcut key for cancelling an autopilot course, 't') listed anywhere in the Settings menu, so if you were looking there then that might be why you couldn't find it.

Check the bottom right of the screen above the minimap next time you set course.
