Hi Devs,
So the saga of the fitting screen continues.
imgur album linkyPicture 1 - Me parking my Onyx to board a Helios, and getting a warning that I don't have enough grid to activate a large shield extender.
The game log:
[ 2015.11.05 14:40:51 ] (info) To bring Large Shield Extender II online requires 160.00 power units, but only 151.91 of the 1071.91 units that your power core produces are still available.
This is odd, because I've just swapped my Onyx for a Helios - so I'm wondering, "Why am I getting powergrid notifications for a ship I just left? Maybe I'll reboard it and check."
Picture 2 - Me reboarding my Onyx, and getting a warning that I now don't have enough grid to run the Medium Neut.
Game log:
[ 2015.11.05 14:42:32 ] (info) To bring Medium Diminishing Power System Drain I online requires 175.00 power units, but only 166.91 of the 1071.91 units that your power core produces are still available.
This is odd, because a minute earlier I was told the LSE wasn't powered, but it looks like it might be after all. I better check the fitting screen.
Picture 3 - My fitting screen, which firstly revealed the Neut was offline, the LSE was online, but the Neut could be onlined. Then I noticed the wiredness.
On the fitting screen, my missile launchers appear to be unloaded. But on my display, they are fully loaded.
Picture 4 - This is me after relogging, and reopening the fitting window. It now appears that all my modules have disappeared from the fitting window, but as you can see, they are still active on the HUD.
Picture 5 - I closed the fitting window, and tried to mouse over the module activation button. There "should" be a tool tip in this screen shot. There is no tool tip.
Picture 6 - This is after I warped off to a safe, jet canned some ammo, and managed to activate the launcher and destroy the can. This picture is me right clicking the Missile launcher to reload ammo. No reload dialogue box has appeared.
After all this, and deciding to try some common bug fixes, I left the game with all clients and cleared my game cache from the Launcher. (Note, this was all after today's patch and emergency reboot.)
My launcher will now not let me enter a username; it has a the wee blue spinning status icon; and the client status bar is all grey. I am able to log into the game using the bin folder exefile.exe.
So, I think there are three issues here:
1) There's a problem associated with fitting when you board ships at a Ship Maintenance Array.
2) There's a serious bug affecting the fitting window, module tool tips, and the module right click interface.
3) At the present, clearing cache may well crash the launcher.
I'm off to run eve repair - will update when I have.
I have. There was a small fix patch down loaded, but this has had no effect on the launcher problem. It still does nothing, and eventually my OS gives a process time out warning.
