We will release another maintenance update in a few days, to address every reported bugs. Thanks for the patience.
Client update 1.0.3/1.0.4
Today we released two quick maintenance update. Here is the (small) list of changes:
fixed a bug that prevented some users from login and/or subscribe correctly through Steam
fixed a bug that prevented bug reporting from client through Steam
fixed a bug that caused a user-created Base Station to be misplaced in the System
We're working on some other bugs that we collected until now, and we expect to release some other quick fix in the next days. Main ones are:
putting a sell order on a Base Station could cause an Agent to be stuck if order is fulfilled, preventing him from embarking on a Ship. - Workaround: put up another order and cancel it.
switching ship when in fleet while traversing a gate can give an obscure error. and block the client. - Workaround: quit and restart client.
during tutorial, asteroids, probes or wrecks could disappear (destroyed or looted by others, for example) and this, being the filter buttons non-clickable during tutorial, can block the tutorial progression. - Workaround: quit and restart client.
persistency of the chat on Navigation Window seems to be an issue. We're evaluating a quick patch to add a new option slider to change it.
