Cyclops stuck

Before I file a bug report on this, I thought I'd solicit some help from the community in identifying the source of an issue. I'm playing a hardcore game in the latest stable patch. I've built a cyclops, which I parked near my base on the south edge of the safe shallows, and began stockpiling things on it for an eventual move to the lost river. I have on board;
Fabricator
Mod Station
Battery Charger
Radio
Medkit Fabricator
Indoor growbed full of marblemelons
Aquarium full of reginalds
Single bed
Desk
Chair
Dozens of wall lockers full of resources
Posters on wall
Plant pots with decorative plants

So anyways, I got in tonight to actually commence my voyage to the Lost River.... and the cyclops can't move. I powered up the engine and can only move up and down, and even that is limited - I can't surface the sub. I suspect something I've put on board is somehow preventing it from moving. The question is what? Has anyone else had this experience?

    Don't put anything in the small area between the bridge and loading bay.

    I've filled that area with Wall Lockers and other items. It's particular items that lead to these issues, like posters.

    Removing the posters did indeed solve the problem. It's pretty annoying that they do that (although it's better than the old days, when having a poster in a locker on board caused the cyclops to tumble uncontrolably). So thanks for the help!

    Yeah but I've had things become detached or jammed in that area too. Not just posters. That's why I don't put much in that small area. At most I put the med pack and battery chargers on the bulkhead wall. Right near the door edge. Nowhere near the inner wall.

    I use that middle room all the time. I took down my posters, but I still have a bed, desk, chair, picture frame, wall shelves and 2 potted vase plants. No issues from any of those.

    It's random. I've put stuff in that area, it was fine. Reload jammed, reloaded again, not jammed. I got tired of hot potatoes. Just left only small things on the bulkhead walls.

    Clearly the DEVs have drawn a line in the sand. This is a working sub and not a party sub. No posters allowed!!

    :)

    Looks like they're fixing the stuck issue in the Cyclops: "Disable colliders and rigidbodies of pickupables placed in the cyclops so they don't stop its movement. Disabled colliders now are assigned to the Useable layer to prevent them being invalidated as targets by Targeting due to becoming triggers."

    Nice! Looks like another Belgarel fix. AWESOME!
