Its actually been broken for years now. modules getting damage after bleeding structure was supposed to be in YEARS ago.

This is likely my fault, I've been tinkering around with the code that applies the damage (I know scary ****) and as a result this might have changed.

Same here, mods and rigs dmged. This is one buggy update, I'm rly confused about what the update was for now O_o
Useless inventory boxes, added lag for missle smoke trails, which is ridiculous, cause there would be no smoke trails in the void of space. WTF is goin on there over at ccp?

If your trying to win an award for "Worst update ever released by a software company", I think u may have won it with this P O S

Wait youre saying its partially intentional? IS this meant to be a new ISK sink then?

And how often is it SUPPOSED to be happening? Cause seriously, how shittily made ARE these modules O.o

Or are we getting new Star Trek shields?

Seriously, watch Undiscovered country some time. When the hole is BLOWN THROUGH THE SAUCER someone says theyre down to 25% shields lol

Smoke is essentially particles of matter and gases.. what about that wouldn't be visible in space? Besides, I watched the Falcon9 launch last night and there was definitely smoke trails of a sort coming off the booster when the were achieving orbit before deploying the solar panels and heading off to the International Space station.

There has always been a feature where damage is supposed to leak to the modules but it might very well be that we start leaking a bit too early now.

What ships were you guys flying and did you take a lot of hull damage?

nvm some of you said only slight shield damage. I'll take a look tomorrow morning.

Let me clarify. Every layer leaks a bit of damage to the next layer when it is sufficiently damage. You start taking a little armor damage while still having some shield remaining and you start taking some hull damage even though have some armor left. This is especially obvious when shooting some structures in missions. However a little known fact is that when your structure gets low then your module take damage. However by that time your structure is so low that you likely exploded and there is a chance that the ship exploded before there was chance to damage the modules. So to sum up, yes this is a feature and always has been but you've likely never noticed it.

As to why mess with stuff that isn't broken. Well it may not seem like broken to you guys but it was broken to us. The code was so complex and weird (and not a single comment in sight) that nobody dared touch it. That is usually not a good place to be in because it means if we want to make any changes to it we need to either, hack it in to the current code and hope it works or simply rewrite it in a way we understood. We opted for the latter.

lol, no it's not.

As to why (...)

Sorry mate don't take it personal but thats a lot of BS and a lot of words. Our mods NEVER EVER did take damage when we undock/dock er our shields are up. there might be some crazy code that got used in some rare cases but what happens here is completly different.
Why are you guys always playing around with something you have no idea about ? you have some crazy Code in front of you and have no idea what it does. Just DO NOT touch it. Let anyone who have a clue do the Job and then after some testing you make an entry in the patch notes and everything is fine. Project Managment, Testing and Qualitiy Managment anyone ?

Can some real DEV give a statement about it please ? Is it a bug or a feature and where is the entry in the patch notes about it ?

What ships were you guys flying and did you take a lot of hull damage?

relax mate this is definitely a bug. Like I said the code was always there but is now being run when it should not due to a rounding error. It's fixed internally and should be in todays downtime.

My draek got broked

PVE Drake, ran 3 missions with no overheating, no hull or armour damage, pic is of repair quote hope it's helpful

First time I've ever seen rigs take a heat hit.

I have never heard of this feature and I troll the forums quite a bit. Just because the code is there and never ran, does not mean you can just dump it on the players all of a sudden and declare it a bug fix.
