Interesting one for carriers of UA/UP

Limpets
- Untargetted collector limpets will not target items owned by their player

So, if you eject one, you have to target it to pick it up again.
 
Here's a sublist of all the changes that might be interesting from the patch notes:

I'm also quite interested in:

- Added permadeath for CMDRs slain by mysterious things
- AI: Improved mysterious thing ramming tactics
- Audio: Added dying CMDR scream to ship destruction
- Encryption on mysterious thing coded messages improved to 512 bit
- Upped NPC aggression level as regards 'fired at barnacle' flagging
- Increased rate of fire on anti-matter cannons to 8/sec
- Added eight new cheese-related rare goods
- Added pilot damage/wounding
- Increased lens flare on player ship destruction as a result of mysterious things doing a mysterious thing
- Deletion of all incidences of the number '8' from game
- Audio: Added subsonic satanic chanting
- Improved puzzles in line with suggestions from GCHQ and NSA
- Deleted all lvl 5 resistance boosters from game
- Audio: Added subliminal suggestions
- Exquisite Focus Crystals now may only be found orbiting Sag A*
- Changes to mysterious thing AI in reaction to players using thermal weaponry. AI will now switch to only using its disintegration ray.
- QOL: Locked 28 explorers eternally in the void by permit locking every system within 200LY of them
- Added antenna to portraits of some NPCs, reflecting their symbiosis with mysterious things

Surface Features
- Biological entities added
My bet is that would be the purple/pink whatevers that we saw in the trailer. Looked very biological to me :)

Thanks for posting. That is an exciting list, and it even includes "a secret thing"!

Are we there yet?!?
 
PS: Is the Space bar (from your keyboard) working weird in the forums from time to time to any of you guys as well? I checked opening a bloc note and it works just fine but once I want to write in the forums from time to time it stops working. THARGOIDS!! :eek:

INDEED.
There's a spacebar issue for sure. When you reply with a quote, spacebar does not work. Only if you hit "enter" and then you come back to the previous line, it starts working.

MODERATORS? Is it a NEW known issue?

PS:
I've submitted the bug...

Just use the 'Go Advanced' button. That one still works.
 
I like those two:

- Increased the distance at which persistent POIs will spawn from 5km to 15km and also made the persistent POI placement avoid placing near POIS from other placement types
- Optimise the wavescanner to better handle multiple signal sources

Could make searches easier a bit.

Disable the rich text editor, set it to standard here: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/profile.php?do=editoptions#optionsmisc - I probably will be changing its default behaviour in the near future as it appears to be a brower update issue. I've not edited the editor code in many many many months.
 
- Added permadeath for CMDRs slain by mysterious things.... er...wow
If this means that you die and cannot re spawn, i dont have a lot o time to play and starting from scratch would make me quit.
there better be a way of keeping the pennies/ships and starting a new cmdr as the son or daughter of the old cmdr.
 
I think you are right: it's a Chrome issue it seems. I've tested it on PC, OSX, Chrome, Safari.
It is occurring on Chrome only, both PC and Mac.

Thanks

Chrome and Firefox, but not all the time. I wrote this reply without the issue(in Chrome). :)
