@sallymorganmoore just FYI, whenever there's a server shutdown notification in game, if you then quit the game to desktop, 100% of the time the shutdown of the game hangs on black screen and must be forced closed by task manager.

This is something that has happened since as long as I can remember. And I'm not the only one that has it happen to them :)

Edit: This isn't limited to Odyssey. It has always happened, even before Odyssey.

FYI this is a relevant ticket for this (sort of, I didn't want to create a new one for this specific issue). I've added my contribution to it.


The ticket is about general hanging on shutdown. My issue is the same but 100% reproducable when the server shutdown sequence is initiated. I'm confident this actually impacts everyone, not just me. This isn't a major issue (in my opinion) but it is a long-standing issue.

Know what, a few of you have said this now and although it was a "hmmmm" let's see...no there's definitely something else, this may also be a contributing factor as you all say! There still looks like there might be something else contributing, which we're looking into regardless, but this is really helpful.

Sorry to the earlier commander I said "Naww it looks like something else" to. It DOES still look like something else isn't helping, BUT this could well be (and looks to be) a contributing factor too! Amazing work for helping look into it, everyone!

Your tattoo artist probably could give you some valuable hints :).

And your new schedule for patch notes is messing up mine. Used to be, I could safely check the patch notes in my lunch break. Now, you're already 29 31 pages into the thread.

Regarding that baseball bat for handling the snakes - I thought you british (and don't deny it - Aldi instant coffee, indeed...) were more into cricket:

Just watching a friend who is on playing via Twitch. I log in and getting constant Orange Sidewinder. But my friends are showing offline which couldt be part of the issue. As I go to log in and orange Sidewinder as if I am actually not connected even though I am..........

Umm, OK. Good long list, but a couple of really simple things aren't there... Shipyard UI - when's that going to be dealt with? The default silly little toggle thing being set to "Sell module" is going to cost me an engineered module soon, almost has several times... I appreciate the need to prioritise, but that's a simple thing - set it to default to "Store" instead of "Sell". How many minutes of dev time would that actually take?

Other gremlins can be dealt with as and when, but I really feel this is a serious issue for players and risks greatly increasing the flames being thrown in FDev's direction. I am very interested to see how the whole stations/shipyard/suits/outfitting etc flow is going to be modified to make it useable, for me this has been a massively retrograde change.

Hi Sally,

Once you get on top of the more important stuff (like snakes), I'd really appreciate it if you kick the EDH combat bonds issue to the devs. It's been weeks now and it prevents me from unlocking the last engineers in the bubble and to part for Colonia. Though I still have to advance from master (81%) to dangerous for Jameson, but this still feels a little bit meh if combat bonds aren't counted. But as the born optimist I am, I'm hoping to go from one combat bond in the Codex to the hundreds that I've earned the last few weeks.

I asked about it last week Friday and had really hoped it got looked into. I posted links to the issue tracker last time (here is one: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/35176), but if you search for combat bonds there are several pages. Not all the same issue, but we seem to be many Horizon players that are affected and waiting with our hats in our hands! :D

Thank you for the constant communication and for the support team to handling all the issues, from a fellow IT professional, its hard to deal with either a launch day or day of change. Love the list of UI changes! (cannot yet get in game - Orange Sidewinder so apologies if these are addressed)

Few issues/queries:
  • ED launcher is displaying "Update 3 is now live!"
  • Are we expecting any more changes to the ship outfitting UI, especially when it comes to equipping stored modules and their ratings for example?
  • Are we going to see an improvement to the UI lighting within the ship, at the moment I am getting a headache trying to read the text because its so much darker than Horizons.

Thank you for the hard work.
