It was working fine with Hakabase, then I switched to the other BadoBest panel last night as you suggested. It had the same behavior as the other one, where shooting would drastically change my zoom.

I realize I'm not following all of the instructions for reporting a bug. I step by step manually figured out why this is happening and thought I'd pass my findings along. Whenever I would shoot with the zoom active (after pressing space bar), the camera would not stay at the same level of zoom but would automatically zoom out to the max every time I would shoot. This was almost impossible to play, especially in a DD knife fight. I tried many things to resolve this, including: Choosing different zoom mods Removing zoom mods Trying different FOV options in settings, etc. I finally resolved it by removing the BadOBest Side panel (the one that shows the hydro and radar for each ship). The problem went away completely after removing this mod. I replaced it with Hakabase. I don't get the hydro and radar details, but at least I can play the game.

I was experiencing the same symptoms (not entering into battle, start button not working, have to kill client with Task Manager and re-enter game) about 50 to 75% of games. I use the Autospy Minimap and the Advanced HP bar mods others were mentioning. I was going to start disabling mods one at a time and try to narrow it down. However, I first tried getting the latest standard mod pack (10.3.0._05) before removing any mods and this has fixed my issues. I've played about 7 or 8 battles now and have zero problems entering the battle.
