  2020-03-10 Sync
Posted by: Haxus - 03-10-2020, 06:37 PM - Forum: Updates - Replies (10)

Sync
I just walked into a building and teleported into the ocean miles away. Pick your variation of this event. It happens to everybody at some point.

Another symptom was a lag spike that always hit me when launching from Atlantis, just as the fighter left the ship. That is where I would sometimes find myself at the bottom of the sea.

Redesigned the way certain syncronizations are negotiated between the client and server. This eliminates the jitter and fixes a number of reported issues.

A lot of crucial things are affected, like respawning, teleporting, transporters, getting in/out of vehicles, wormholes, warp travel, turbo lifts, entering leaving spacecraft, entering leaving the domain of worlds. I tested all of those things, more thoroughly than usual, but there is always potential for a problem. Please be patient if there is a problem.

Hit Sync Lag
When character or any driveable vehicle that is under control by player gets hit by weapon or fists or anything like that, it stuck on one place for a second. Unable to move and rotate camera. This gets worse when there are many sources of damage

This was fixed by the previous work on sync.

Previously, it was not possible to induce a vector onto a player controlled avatar; it didn't propagate to the avatar properly, ending up as a lag spike instead. Now you will be moved by explosions and kinetic damage to your body. Large animals may throw your body quite far when hitting you.

Try having a fist fight with an indigenous person. I think it feels more solid when your blows knock them back a bit.

Cache Options
Cache options still mention old style ship designs.

Removed references to old style spacecraft designs.

Bullion Q
Bullion production says "Produced x at Q141"

Bullion production is always Q255. The manufacturing panel was showing incorrect information. The information is fixed.

Gov Policy
Government Office > Can change join policy and password

Removed obsolete join policy permission

Republish Design
Should be able to republish a design with the same name. It can tell you that's what happened.

Fixed error that prevented republishing an existing design. The error reported a duplicate name which should have been ignored when overwriting a design id. The new design replaces the old design with the same name. Duplicate entries are not created.

Gas Giant Refineries
Refineries in gas giants dont "see" exotic atmospheres

Fixed.

Sky Box Seams
Since the update on the 21st, I see large seams in the skybox

I could not find any error or cause for the seams at the edges of each panel.

There is a setting to disable mip mapping of the skybox texture. You could try that.

I added a debug switch to disable GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_SEAMLESS when drawing the sky box. You can try that. It's a rendering state that affects the seam. It is the b31 switch on the Program page of the Settings window. The check box has a tooltip. If that works for you, I'll replace the debug switch with a setting on the Scene page.

Empire Standings
Empire standings pages have links that say 2015.

Year reference removed from empire standings pages.

Big Flags
Flags larger than 64x64 are causing sizing problems on the web site.

Big flag size issues fixed on web pages.

Blank Paper in Notebook
I made a notebook with a bunch of blank pieces of paper. I put my welcome letter in there and I can't tell which one it is in the list.

Blank paper is now identified as "Blank Paper" in the gear list.

Bought Blueprint Error
I bought a blueprint onto one of the blank pages of my notebook. I got the blueprint but it didn't use up the blank page.

Fixed an error finding the media when it was inside a nested container. My notebook was in my backpack. The user interface found the blank pages and listed them for storing the blueprint. The server did not find the blank paper inside the nested container so it was not removed.

System Map Error
When I display my solar system map, the first planet starts with roman numeral II.

Fixed an error that was introduced in a recent update.

  Spacecraft require non-Spare Parts
Posted by: Deantwo - 03-10-2020, 05:28 PM - Forum: Prerelease Bug Reports - Replies (2)

Spacecraft are supposed to only cost modules and metals to construct. This is not always the case.

Station Blueprint 22111 Solar Station No Transporter by Jack Katogh

This space station require Textiles, Plastic, Mechanical Parts and Electronic Parts alongside the expected modules. But those commodities are not part of the "Spare Parts" category.

  Can Haxus remove an avatar's blueprints please?
Posted by: plek - 03-09-2020, 06:46 PM - Forum: Design Studio - Replies (3)

Yeah I deleted my guy before I thought about it and now there's a bunch of blueprints on the exchange that I had wanted to improve upon over time. I'd rather not clutter it up if I could avoid it so if we could pull Kelpi's buildings I'd appreciate it.

  Unable to export starmap
Posted by: martianant - 03-09-2020, 10:30 AM - Forum: Closed Bug Reports - Replies (1)

My game crashes when I try to export my star map above a certain number of sectors.
Sector only exports fine. +1 sector distance (6 sectors) exports fine. +2 sector distance (8 sectors) hangs the program until I kill it. +3 sectors or more causes a segfault.

Shores of Hazeron/Programs/ShoresOfHazeron: line 6: 181793 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) "$appdir/$appname" $*

It says core dumped, but I have no clue where. Running Arch linux. Others have reported problems with large star map exports. When getting the query data I unselected unexplored systems and cleared star map data as well.

  Remove EV Helmets
Posted by: Deantwo - 03-09-2020, 06:29 AM - Forum: Arena of Ideas - Replies (23)

I'll just start this thread so we can keep the bug reports on-topic.
See: (Idea thread) Metal EV Helmet doesn't require Cryo Heat Sink

I can't see a reason for having an EV suit be two separate parts, EV Helmet and EV Suit. It doubles the amount of things we need to manufacture without any real benefit.


(03-09-2020, 12:50 AM)Xantheose Wrote: - Having a mix between helmets and armor to mix resistances

Valid reason. Not completely sure how much resistances matter, but valid nontheless.

(03-09-2020, 12:50 AM)Xantheose Wrote: - Crafting helmets of one material and armor of another one because it's less expansive

Verse the idea of only having to manufacture one? I see this as a bad thing.

(03-09-2020, 12:50 AM)Xantheose Wrote: - 2 different loots from troops then you can't build a full stuff to every troop you kill

It does look fun on pirates, I will give you that.

(03-09-2020, 12:50 AM)Xantheose Wrote: - You can getting one broken while the other is ok

This is a negative. Since one is lower durability and will always break first.
Plus you have to keep track of the durability of two separate items rather than just one.

(03-09-2020, 12:50 AM)Xantheose Wrote: - Elec parts quality is based on an average quality, metal isn't

And your metal quality is always gonna be 255, unless you aren't min-maxing, so do show me a mix of reasources that would make a worse helmet than suit.
Of course once we are talking about Magmium or Vulcium that point is moot.

(03-09-2020, 12:50 AM)Xantheose Wrote: - All armors have helmet and armor but EV only armor? No. That's called consistency.

Somewhat true. Anr's old ideas had suggested that we should be able to wear armor underneath the EV suit.
But you know we could just remove armor helmets too. Replace helmets with more purpose filled items. Such as something similar to SS13's security and medical HUDs.

  'Nose' in Gen III character does not update
Posted by: Mal - 03-09-2020, 01:08 AM - Forum: Prerelease Bug Reports - No Replies

This is minor but I'm reporting it anyway since it's easily overlooked;

When creating a Gen III avatar, changing the nose does not immediately update the rendering. You have to move the size slider for it to show the new nose type on the avatar. Again, a minor annoyance but also a minor fix. None of the other body parts seem to have this problem, far as I could tell.

  Ships warping in the same sector collide
Posted by: Apollo - 03-08-2020, 04:13 PM - Forum: Prerelease Bug Reports - Replies (27)

It seems ships traveling at warp in the same sector, regardless of destination, end up colliding with each other. The bug is frequent and repeatable.

  Sinking into ship floor post recall
Posted by: Snowmantis - 03-08-2020, 02:26 PM - Forum: Prerelease Bug Reports - No Replies

I see a reproducible bug where my toon sinks into the ship's floor.    I recall this was an issue that was fixed in the last universe/new ship, so might be remnants of and old bug.

How to reproduce:
Spaceship blueprint 2702 Badger  
Recall home - (now on ship - do not release from berth position)
Instruct crew to take off and fly somewhere (still in berth)
Once Ship moves release from berth "E"
walk a few feet and the toon sinks into floor (up to thighs for my toon) (also no metallic floor walking sound)

Once ship landed and you move the toon resets to floor level,  Also noticed that the toon resets to floor level if it takes command of a console.

  Automatically Add To Land
Posted by: Deantwo - 03-08-2020, 02:02 PM - Forum: Arena of Ideas - Replies (8)

A number of players mentioned their cities randomly decaying. They didn't know how lands worked or that they manually had to add a system to their avatar's land.

I simply suggest that when you found a new city, it should automatically add the solar system to the avatar's land. Assuming this would produce the same thought message as normal, new players would notice something is wrong on their own if they get a message saying "I can't add more solar systems to my land." when they found a new city.

This would also help us forgetful veteran players.
