Just a little warning to my fellow pirates out there:
1) In case you haven't noticed remote sensor boosting is now subject to the same stacking penalties as regular sensor boosters...even if you disttribute them amongst many ships . At first I figured this was just a bug, but then I realized that CCP is probably doing this just to prevent anybody from being able to get an instalock with a dread...so I wouldn't expect to see this change anytime soon.
2) Asteroid belts no longer show up when you are at the planet they surround. This is really LAME, and I hope it is a bug. Belt piracy is a dying art, and being really quick with the scanner is essential to success, without having belt icons show up in space so that you can quickly narrow down your search is a big blow to belt piracy.
If anybody from CCP ever reads this post, I'd be very interested to know if #2 was intentional or not.
Anyway, good luck to you all, and have fun trying to sentry tank assault frigates in order to get a quick lock.

Havnt had the chance to play since RMR release.
Does pushing ALT not still bring up all celestial objects?

Not sure, I forgot to try that. It's not that big of a deal, but it will add a few more seconds onto the race against logout/warp-to-pos. If you can't find somebody in 20 seconds you're probably not getting a kill.

Yeah just checked, Alt doesnt work.
But u can always make a scanner preset to show asteroids belts while scanning. Will make it even easier for u then icons.
Then just load PVP preset after.

I don't know about alt but
Originally by: Meryl Stryfe Go into space, open and close map. Triangles are back.
After finding this out, I didn't make a jump, so you might have to redo it for each system.
It's a stupid visual bug, same as ctrl-tab making the HUD go away until you open/close map.
Happy hunting!
So bug would be my guess.

Now why'd you go and tell everybody?! I accidently figured that fix out right after the patch, and it's been quite the advantage being the only one in the system who actually knows where the belts are...

Edited by: Jennai on 18/12/2005 11:13:55 ctrl-tab isn't a bug, that's the hotkey to disable UI for screenshots
just hit it again to get it back

So that might also work instead of opening and closing the map, if it does I'm happy again \o/ |

Another MAJOR problem. Remote sensor dampners and trackign disruptors are totally fubared. For a detailed analysis of this problem, check out the 11 page thread here which the devs are ignoring.

2 is definatly a bug because the belts near you come back if you open and close map. Only works once per system.
So now you have to distance scan then warp to the planet and reveal belts. Takes much longer but atleast it works. With any luck it'll geet fixed once they sort out the really crippling bugs.

Right, but since RMR, pushing ctrl-tab does not bring the UI BACK up...

it worked for me yesterday, but I had a bug today where I minimized the overview with tab and hitting tab again wouldn't bring it back.

It is called stacking penalty. All stats affected by a stacking penalty use the same algorithm, which was changed to reduce dmg mod stacking.

sensor boosters and sensor dampers should not be counted as the same module for stacking purposes. four dampers on a raven with two boosters should not result in a lock range of over 100km.
