What happened?
a vanilla example: this circuit in the hissihiss beacon elevator has the sole purpose of maintaining the x position of the elevator, which is why it's wired to an engine, so that it can't be knocked off track. however the circuit just doesn't work, because even if you toggle it to "maintain position", then save, if you load it, it will always be on "manual". (as shown in the images)

This absolutely makes sense for drones and shuttles on a mainsub, because that would result in it "fighting" the controls of the mainsub. however in the case of beaconstations (or in my case, an outpost) they do not move, therefore it wouldn't be fighting anything, and should be allowed to save on maintain position.
I believe this issue is also true with manually setting the engine force like so.
