I know there's probably a good reason for it, but I'm having trouble elucidating precisely what some of those bullets points means in exact terms. I get a gist of the idea from the vocab and the context used, but... :(

For example I have no idea what the transfer authority thing means. I'm guessing it has something to do with the code itself.

I think these notes are mostly for the programming team's reference - Michael is just kind enough to post them here so we get a sense of what's going on.

The messages are straight from the commit logs of their version control system, so yeah some of them are a little esoteric.

You hear it ALL the time BUT, thanks FD team. Hopefully you all get some rest after SB1.0.2 - as in rest with bug fixing ;-)
RESPECT and APPRECIATION.

Most translate as "things hopefully crash less now" ;)

I guess the transfer of authority is either some internal mechanism for managing objects in memory, or it's related to peer2peer network "islands" changing owners.

And for all that has holes in it, would you just stop losing space stations FD? I mean, they're those massive chunks of metal, couldn't you just keep them on a magnetic tether or something? :rolleyes:
 
I think this is most hard working game design team on this planet. They release one 0.01 version every day.

I have only problems with connectivity, that sometimes I don't get bulletin boards lists and then I was thrown off from the server. But I guess this is because of many people today.

Mike is here collating the comments the programmers add to the code when they checkin the changes into the version control system.
Authority Transfer is a process that happens when one person's PC has control of an AI ship or station, and they leave the session (eg hyperjump out, or die in flames) - the PCs negotiate transfer of control to another machine in the session.
 
Hi, thank you for fixing missing black markets!

Where can I see demand of Black Market in specific station? Is it similar to Commodity market demand or something else determines the demand on black market? Or that part is not implemented yet and I have to fly across multiple stations until one of them accepts my stolen goods? Just asking. Thanks in advance for an answer!

You guys rock, your updates is like "the fasted gun on the West routine" lol, yeah i like K-Pax hehe.
 
Brilliant, the only repeatable crash I've found so far, the Type 6 repair one, has been fixed, awesome work!
 
Many thanks to the good folks at FDEV for the jolly good updating process.

And remember guys 'n' gals. You find it, you ticket it. The more tickets for the same problem, the better and more data FD will have to fix it. :D
 
Hi everyone,

/snip
- Possible fix for soft lock in hyperspace

//snipMichael

Sorry, but this is still happening for me, & it locked up on me as I tried dropping out of SC a little while ago :(

I usually tab out & kill E:D with the task manager within a minute or two of this happening (and it's happened to me a lot these last 2 days, ~50% of SC/HS transitions), but I figured I'd give it a bit longer this time, and we're at 10 minutes and counting so far.

Thanks for the great job you guys are doing in finding & fixing things so far - two revisions in as many days? outstanding work! - but it looks like this one is going to take a little longer :/
 
Hi ! The 1.02 patch broke my game completely. Once i finished patching and booted up the game. When i try to push on any menu options, it waits for a while whited out on the button, and then i start to hear a constant sound as if i was clicking somewhere constantly, and none of the options work after that and so it goes on and on. So basically this patch broke my game and made it completely unplayable :(
 
I presume the soft hyperspace lock is this thing..is this what you were talking about?

I'm talking about where you transition from normal to SC or to HS, and the game just sits there at the transition, before the screen goes white & you switch into the next stage of flight. For me it's been happening when going from sub-luminal, to super cruise, or to hyperspace, in either direction.

And it's 21 minutes and counting, it doesn't look like it's going to drop out on its own :/
