EDIT - RESOLVED thanks GM Bigglesworth!

It seems my character is stuck! I logged out in a weird game state and now when I log back in and click my character, the screen stays black.

Before I logged out, I undocked in a Hyena, but I right clicked it and clicked 'Leave Ship' at nearly the exact moment that the station undock timer completed. I flew to my destination station and docked. Once here, I realized there was a bug, because the Inventory window showed the Hyena as being present in that station, but I had no ship or pod visible in the rendered station. Dragging stuff into or out of the hyena gave some error 'that object could not be found at this location' or similar.

At this point I quit with alt-shift-Q and restarted the client. I can't get back into space or station.

The character selection screen shows my character as being docked in a pod at the first station.
After clicking him, the screen goes black and presumably gets confused what ship is being loaded to where.

I did notice one UI element appear over the blank screen - a notification "New mails: x; New notifications: y" pops up in the top left.

The client does recognize the alt-shift-Q shortcut to exit from this screen.

Clearing my client cache did not help.

I have no problem logging into an alt.
