Good morning Sally :)
Any news yet on the salvage missions where the POIs are not spawning? The error rate is now about every second mission and there is nothing you can do about it except cancelling. The planets always have the mission marker, the POIs itself are the problem.

I cant believe that it is meant to be that only all 2000 or so stations there are 1 or 2 Restoration/Reactivation Missions? In fact this means senseless searching an no progress in Material gathering for Commanders that are engaged in an Clan and have duties due to the bgs....

went on an ground mission (Phi eridani /rudenko) as is landed tzhe game went stuttering. FPS drops to <5 ! And this with graphics setting all at lowest possible! My 1060 3GB should not be so bad with odyssey ant my system is at good health. All i recognised was there were a lot of rocks in vicinity of rudenko ground base.... Useless to say this bugs did not occur with update 4, with update 5 now it is horrible...
I am playing Elite since Release and i have to say i was never so close to quit it and hit the uninstall button

PS: Strange bug that occured as i played on ground: the strafe left button "A" was assigned and totally disfunctional now back on sudworth orbital it works normally

I would really like to know what's happening to the framerate hitching that was introduced with patch 5. Is it being looked into and will they patch it out before console release?.

Having your framerate drop from the 60+ down to 15-20fps every 10 to 15 seconds is really making it hard to drive the SRV and visit settlements. From my experience it seems like each building is being loaded in causing the stutter/hitch, but every time you go past a building it does it again. So drive the SRV around the outside of a settlement and its unplayable. Might be different for others but so far this is what I have seen.

(Actually, nvm. I'll go and find the bug report and add to that)

Okay, found a bug report but it's expired: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/27950

Basically, Inventory Empty is still showing up over the first cargo entry

Seen that too!

@sallymorganmoore

Couple of mission related bugs showing up.

a) Missions (at least Larceny and Salvage missions) taken from a concourse terminal aren't showing the reward options and defaulting to the financial reward when turning them in. (Gongalungul, Andoyer Station)
b) Got a salvage mission target not showing up (haven't had that happen in a while). Has stacked 2 Larceny and 1 salvage in one system (Gongalungul) , the two larceny missions (on planets A4 and A6) both went ok, but the target POI on plant A2 never spawned. Tried dropping from orbital cruise, going back to supercruise, landing and relogging, had done a full surface scan, etc.

On the upside, i managed to deal with the scavs on foot with my guns without dying! And have a shipload of push hush and lazarus to sell for big spacebucks :D

TAUPE COBRA!! For 4 days now, every time I jump somewhere or super cruise im then met with Taupe cobra until it decides to let me in again hours later to happen once I hit that FSD again, this is "beyond" an "Odyssey" at this stage and being told over and over by Fdev its my router and closing the ticket is ridiculous, I'm a network Administrator by trade, I have checked my router settings including ports and blocked ips etc. and nothing is wrong with it.....seriously......

Out of interest have you tried your personal hotspot on your phone just to test it and rule out the hardware? Other things to try is windows software firewall, see what rules EDO has.

I get your frustration here though, having a ticket closed without resolution isn't the best experience.

One small thing that would make life a lot easier for fleet carrier owners:

When buying/selling at any market, the speed of the cargo transfer increases the longer you hold the button, up to a limit.

But there's no acceleration when transferring cargo to/from the fleet carrier. It transfers at a constant speed, and that's 40-50 seconds holding down the control every single time. (Unshielded T9 or Cutter).

The 'transfer all to carrier' button is fine, but the 'transfer all to ship' isn't of any use at all because fleet carriers tend to be clutter cupboards. Therefore, 99% of the time that button is greyed out and unusable.

Now, if there was a double-arrow next to the single arrow, which meant 'take everything that will fit' ...

Or failing that, please add an accelerator to the transfer so it doesn't waste a minute. I use an allen key wedged under the hat switch, but there's probably a more elegant solution.

Hi @sallymorganmoore , Can you link me to the original question/response please, I've been searching for roadmap related posts to get an insight on what's being worked on. Thanks

I'll save you the time looking at it, Black Ice, because like any of those questions, I wont ever be able to answer them in simple forum replies in a thread I'm afraid.
I can only keep on saying that we're working ultra hard still to get you the next wave of information which will come in the form of a proper, dedicated way of communicating :) I really will never answer such golden questions in casual replies to things in threads.

Hello!! Really wanted to get back to you on this so you're not left hanging.
Thank so much. Been looking at any current issues with missions a fair bit with the guys dev side, so this kind of further info helps a lot. I'll keep working on progressing with these.

Issue resolved. User error as with many issues. I had left the launcher running since Wednesday. Yesterday the servers went offline for a server update. The Launcher (bless its cotten socks) Doesn't recognise this and thought it was still online. A restart of the launcher solved everything.

FWIW in regards to a) i'm playing on HOTAS, don't see how it would make a difference but, who knows?

As to b) i also tried jumping out of the system to go sell the buckets of push and stuff, and then back, still no joy.

Not sure if it has any relevance but the destination planet (A2) is very close to the mission source (Andoyer Station) at just a few Mm away. Maybe it can't resolve the target because the mision tag on the station is so close or something. Although i don't think it's been a problem elsewhere for me.

The larceny mission giving the wrong reward, and no POI showing for salvage missions has been happening consistently since patch 5 was released. I already updated a couple of issues on the issue tracker concerning both of these, with screenshots and so on last week.

Now I'm really hacked off, Dropping out of supercruise to land at Betanbcourt Refinery, Chotec Syestem. Long lag whilst dropping out but the system chose keep plotting my course. Low and behold, I drop out of lag and impact the ground. Thanks FD, that has cost my 17M credits in lost cargo and rebuy of my beloved type 10.

Time to go and find something less demoralising to do.

Do you have a tracker link for them? My tracker-search-fu is weak, but i'll certainly add a "same here" confirmation to it.
