Patch Notes Update Gamma update 2.06 incoming

[Acier]

Yup, just got punted while waiting to undock - can only hope I don't get loitering killed.

 

[Brandon31]

Just got disconnected. Had to kill the app in TM

 

[Icarus1]

just a heads up: Connection loss still there, and i got one of those "rare" occassions where the game doesnt end itself.

As usual with each upgrade, it takes some time until the server catches up.

 

[Alex Muad'Dib]

No - the rank missions should be available. It's the core Imperial systems that are blocked off.

Michael

How are the Empire missions identified? I've seen Federation rank missions with "Naval opportunity..." but I still haven't seen any missions like those in Empire stations (and I've been completing a lot of Empire missions).

 

[Lithen]

Prevent getting stuck when alt-tabbing If this means I can finally alt-tab again, I'm going to be so very happy

Thanks a lot for your continued hard work FD!

 

[vjek]

Got kicked out with not being able to connect to the transaction server.

Got this just a few minutes ago, then the no commander data error, then "The game failed to communicate with the authentication server".

 

[Antigonos]

im sure fdev will work through the night and tomorrow till this gets fixed for launch.

 

[Marak]

Seems to have borked my key mappings, then booted me out while I was fixing them.

No worries - I'll wait for stuff to cool down a bit & try again.

 

[danjay]

Jumping out of s/c got lost contact returned to main menu, got game failed to load now no servers with start in red

 

[Michael Brookes]

How will that affect already over-saturated markets?

-Additional content-

Ones where they perhaps import an item and have imported far too many, more than they consume and are therefore now selling it off, turning them into a supplier rather than a consumer..
I have seen such a case recently. Tweaking the level of AI may prevent this happening going forward, but depending on how the background simulation works, surely it won't undo what has been done?

It makes them less saturated. It won't stop players saturating a market - but it's not supposed to. It will prevent the AI from doing so though.

[Daeron]

Any server updates going on? Was cut down on a high wave there.

Edit: Nevermind. It's sorted now.

The AI trading has been reduced to provide more breathing room for player trading.

Michael

THis is big news as it appears that the AI trading is sucking the economic life out of the game. thx for the update.

 

[Andromalius]

Can't login at all. Guess I'm in for another rep hit when mission timer expires. *sigh*

 

[Kelpy]

Feel like a bug about to hit a windscreen.

 

[CARLOS3]

EDIT: Issue cleared up, have connected to game successfully now.

 

[zoidbun]

Seems like everyone was disconnected at once. Server update thingie?

 

[ArthurDent]

Was about to give a big thumbs up, as everything seemed to run fine and even more smoothly than before (no stuttering near objects in SC thus far). Did a couple of missions and collected some bounties on the side, when suddenly, as i want to deliver some cargo (as part of a delivery mission) i get stuck at the spinning standby icon. I patiently wait, eventually the mission summary pops up but it just says "unkown" everywhere. No idea if the mission was successfully finished or not.
Then "failed to connect to transaction server" and back to the start menu it is. :/

 

[Krusty McNugget]

just got kicked.. "Could not connect to transaction server."
