Patch Notes Update Elite Dangerous: Beyond - Chapter Two 3.1

[HBK]

Anaconda

• Smoothed out some overhead cables in the cockpit

Holy crap.

 

[Martin Schou]

General Fixes & Tweaks

• Numerous performance optimisations for hangers

Thank God! I've been having trouble with my hangers being very slow in the closet. Did you mean hangars?

 

[Daish]

Fixed Mentor missions showing incorrect reward choice upon completion. COOL

Nice one Devs. Let progression begin once more.

 

[Marra Morgan]

Nice patch, thanks!

Can I get some clarification?

• Removed the timed element from assassination missions, so that targets are no longer limited to spawning within a time window. Players can scan the systems local nav beacon to find the targets location.

Does this apply to Piracy missions too?

They also use the time-window mechanic.

What about Bugfixes:


-Wing nav lock not dropping correctly
-Research Limpet Returns with Sample but then there is No Sample in Cargo
-Thargoid Kill Mission Objectives Spawning Incorrectly / Non appering Thargoids
-Wing issues

Its nothing about it in the Patch Notes

Does this apply to Piracy missions too?

Just Assassination for the moment.

 

[CMDR Redcrest]

Still no improvement to material trader exchange rates....

 

[redVENGEANCE]

"Smoothed out some overhead cables in the Anaconda."

Maybe a cable tidy is in order?

 

[Marra Morgan]

Just Assassination for the moment.

Thanks for the reply!

I don't see any fix for NPC Powerplants - I take it this didn't make it?

 

[the100thmonkey]

Background Simulation

• Fixed war missions incorrectly offering influence rewards (influence during a war state has no actual effect)

Great!

Controls & Control Devices

• Prevented Flight Assist from automatically re-enabling after exiting Supercruise

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

 

[Kathra]

What is the status on "Massacre faction Pirates" missions? Targets do not spawn with "mission target" designation.

 

[QA-Mark]

Thank God! I've been having trouble with my hangers being very slow in the closet. Did you mean hangars?

Whoops! Yes, that should read 'hangars'. I'm afraid your spare flight suits will have to continue hanging in less optimised conditions...

 

[dreampage]

Thank you for the patch notes, Frontier! I'm unhappy that the landing bug hasn't been fixed. But it's great to see the other fixes and improvements. Let's hope for 3.2 then. Anyway, onto the Krait soon!

 

[TheGrimCorsair]

No Asp Scout changes? At all?

 

[DMC831]

Are long range cargo and smuggling missions going to spawn on mission boards again? I haven't seen if this is a bug or you removed them entirely.

(During 2.4, they wouldn't spawn EXCEPT for an hour or two immediately after a server downtime for the weekly tick, and then they'd disappear again. I've not seen them at all during 3.0)

Is this intended? I hoped to see a note saying that those fun missions were back in the game since the Krait is a smuggler.

 

[DukeIronHand]

Holy crap.

Was hoping to hear about the overly bright cockpit lights also.
And a “T7 to Medium Pads” announcement.
Ah well.

 

[aymerix]

Cool

Narrative

• New planetary sites added, with audio logs

Love it!

 

[Cmdr Tywin Lannister]

just downloaded new launcher

 

[TheGrimCorsair]

Also no fixes to enemies ignoring the effects of powerplant destruction?

 

[Musaab]

What about the stations appearing wrongly in the HUD sometimes before they are targeted?
