Quote: Turret damage is now displayed correctly in the player logs. Wrecking and excellent hits will be shown in all of their pew pew glory.
Is this just a change to the flavor text? Or are you making any change to the way hit quallity is made?
It was only a display issue.

Originally by: Erdiere "Space junk clean up is now running during downtime but will not delete anything it is not supposed to." Well.. isn't that nice to know.
I hope so. The space cleanup downtime database job did not run for a few days, not doing anything. The space dustmen have now returned to duty.

Originally by: sion drifter the patch sounds great.. here's my question:
Who decided to patch on Thanksgiving day? Is this the same person who decided to patch on Saturday?
Thanksgiving is a US holiday, not an Icelandic one and is a normal workday for us.
Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, the EVE Online Store will not ship out any orders on Thursday, November 27 and Friday, November 28. All orders placed after 10 am EST on Wednesday, November 26 will be shipped out on Monday, December 1
So you guys don't recognize US holidays huh?
Operations, deployment and maintenance of Tranquility is done from Reykjavfk, Iceland (Tranquility is located in London, UK).
The original plan was to deliver all post-Quantum Rise last Tuesday (25 Nov) but we decided to split up the release and deliver the critical fixes in 1.0.1 last Saturday (22 Nov) so players would have a better weekend experience. We then had to postpone the second part until tomorrow, Thursday (27 Nov).
The EVE store is located in Atlanta GA, USA. Our US office observes US holidays.

Originally by: Rilwar How about letting us drag/drop more than 1 item at a time into/between corp hangars.
Should be fixed tomorrow, please let us know if there are still problems after the deployment.

Originally by: Zeta Aece Haha, I like how remedying "players experienc[ing] discomfort with duration timers" was listed as a critical fix.
It was brought to our attention as a potential issue for players with certain medical conditions, if they were using guns with a very high rate of fire.

If this is true, where do I send the beer and hookers?
I'm married so no hookers please, keep them to yourself. But the beer:
Grandagardur 8 101 Reykjavfk Iceland
I'm fond of Budweiser Budvar (the Czech version), Grolsch, Pilsner Urquell, Samuel Adams, Stella Artois to name a few

Originally by: CCP Mitnal Please do not ask for updates on bugs or exploits.
Only once they are fixed will they be released in patch notes.
While I fully don't expect exploit updates prior to a patch, patch notes haven't (correct me if I'm wrong) for a considerable length of time listed exploits after deployment.
Is this a concious change? I've been curious about this for a while now.
I think CCP Mitnal was only referring to regular bugs, that the release notes are updated as more fixes are included.
We do not publish details on exploit fixes and we do not discuss them.

Originally by: Maria Kalista Dear Explorer,
Since you are obviously reading this topic, could you please give a flimsy hint on the status of the memory leak-bug?
Dear Maria,
Most of the memory and client performance related fixes were deployed last Saturday and most of the fixes today are functional fixes of various types.
There are however a few additional memory, graphics and client performance fixes in the today's release. From the release notes:
Quote:
- The cache settings for the Classic mode and Premium mode are now stored separately.
- Orbital maps in the solar system show info window now display correctly.
I do notice that one fix in today's release is missing from the release notes, a fix that addresses a memory leak in certain circumstances.
In tests we did this week we saw FPS improvements between 1.0.1 and 1.0.2. One specific scenario tested was 200 entities in the same bubble, all shooting, and demonstrated fair improvement.

Originally by: CCP Navigator Quick update: The changes to the EVE mail system have been delayed by 24 hours. This change will come into effect after downtime on Friday 28 November 2008.
Does this mean a normal DT tomorrow, or will that be extended as well???
Should be a normal DT.

Originally by: Mr Mucker Does anyone know whether the update was annouced through the Eve client? And if so when? I know this thread was created yesterday around 15:00 but I was on Eve last night around 9:00 pm Eve time and i did not notice any details on the login screen about this patch being deployed.
A news item was released yesterday at 14.19 GMT.
And the message of the day on the login screen was changed at 15:19 GMT to announce the deployment.
