Originally by: CCP Gangleri We are aware of the issue of players extending the aggression between pilots by interacting with their wreck, this is being fixed.
There is however no other 'hidden aggro timer' issue that I am aware of, if you have a way of reproducing this error then please file a bug report or an exploit petition listing the exact steps required.
Thank you.
You can't be serious!
This has been a issue with GCC for YEARS!!! Like said above. Dock WITH GCC at a station(not getting shot by the station sentry guns), LET YOUR GCC RUN OUT(While in station).(Within 15min of docking)Undock from station and you WILL get blasted by station sentry guns!!! ------------

Note that even if the sentries don't shoot you as you dock they may still start a timer, so even if the GCF has run out you will still have the yellow NPC countdown since it started later than the GCF.
Exactly, but that timer is hidden. It will not show as a yellow timer.
The only time it doesn't create a hidden timer is if A) they actually shoot you B) you dock in a pod ------------

So if you dock fast enough the timer will start in the background but will not show in the client? Does the timer show once they start shooting you?
I'll try some more tomorrow but I have never been able to repro this in game, I would really appreciate if you could take some time to file a bug report including a logserver file and a screenshot of sentries shooting you without a timer. Put 'for CCP Gangleri' into the title to make sure it reaches me.
That is exactly right! If the sentrys start shooting you it starts the yellow aggro timer to the station. I will fraps it tonight if I can, a video would be the best description for you.
But the best thing to do is, get a global criminal, dock with it(do not let the station guns shoot you!), let the GCC run out, then undock shortly after the GCC runs out. You will start getting shot by the station guns. Then a yellow aggro timer to that stations corporation or faction will show up.
You get a invisible 15min timer to the station when you dock with GCC without getting shot!

Originally by: CCP Gangleri OK, so I came into the office today specifically to research this case (need to stop reading forums on Friday nights) and wasn't expecting anything really. I had heard of this issue before but never been able to reproduce it.
Took about an hour of warping to various stations (love those CONCORD stations in Egbinger) before one finally let me dock quickly enough to evade the sentries. Sure enough, after waiting for the timers to run out I undocked only to be blasted by sentry fire.
I can't promise that it will be fixed in Dominion but we'll do our best.
Thanks.. ------------
