Since I have bought my carrier the livery icon has always been greyed out when I am docked there. Anyone else seeing this? Can’t change my livery.
Notice Fleet Carrier Update - Known Issues
Dear developers, can you tell the community a little about how you work on bug fixes? Unfortunately, after the last message that your team went to sleep, there is no more information or special changes in the game...are you still sleeping? It can be the approximate time of the next hotfix or the time of technical work on the servers, or a new list of known problems...anything at all.
Not sure if this was reported but apparently ship names and ID's got stealth "fix" that capitalize them after you type/paste them ... in addition the dash / "-" is removed from allowed ID symbols and it is auto removed if pasted.
Not sure why this is done but altering user input to fix some display issues do not look as good practice.

That's really annoying. I rely on a dash in my ship ids for the naming convention I chose.
I suspect that they've done that because Fleet Carriers have a dash in their UID, but that's a poor reason.
I dread new content these days, because it always changes something for the worse, and it takes a good 10-14 days for the bugs to be removed. I honestly wouldn't mind if the game got mothballed.
You can still have dash in id if you edit the default one.... Just do not apply new name or copy paste. The default id is something like first two letters of char name, dash some random numbers and a letter. By editing you can keep the dash.That's really annoying.

However, there is no work around for capitalising input and new ships will always have capitalised names in journal.
P. S. In general using non unicode fonts and capitalising names of everything is very lame.
Got my FC & took it out for a spin, got low on fuel so I made a pitstop then I noticed the poor poor fuel transfer system, what were you guys over at frontier thinking of when you came up with that doozy? I hope the person who suggested it was given a verbal warning & the person who implemented it was fired. Where is the logic in being able to plot jumps & manage your FC from across the galaxy but I can't get one of my crew that are paid copious amounts of money to do a fuel transfer, no no I have to physically be on the FC & then transfer it to my ship to transfer it back to the FC. Real emerging game play, needless to say after only one day I've put my FC into decommissioning state. Please sort it out Devs you gave us this awesome thing & then
ruined it by simply not thinking it through

Haven't ship names always been changed to capital letters when you name or rename your ship? They have as long as I've been playing but the removal of the hyphen is new.
Lads and Gents. Maybe one of you all noted this in the millions of comments above but, I have an observation. Way back when we couldn't even log onto the game because of a copious black adder, we were told to Machine logout and log back on. This worked for me immediately and no problems with basic logon since.
I perceive that the game devs are repeated going in to the game shell and making reprogramming adjustments right now. As they do, the fixes are usually good but, the dynamic game memory can get a bit messed up I think. I have noticed that every once in a while when I do a machine logout and new logon, the game stops having current lock issues and etc... and the game runs much more consistently. No, this does not fix many of the fundamentally logic issue still outstanding but, it does let me proceed with the game play better - a lot better in fact..

Well they've been completely mute on this but I suspect they want the player to have to be involved in the movement. I can't shuffle the carrier off to beagle point while I stay and do power play. Why? I don't know, but this fueling thing and the flat out refusal to address it in any way seems to suggest that's what they want. Yes it sucks. If I want to BuckyBall back to take part in some Thargoid event, and tow the fleet along after... "too bad". Gotta drag my cross on my shoulders all the way back or pay to have my fleet delivered off my fleet carrier.
Anyway...
Sure would be nice to have any feedback what busted game parts we can expect to be addressed in the patch for the patch.
i see we still have the very annoying sound problem after visiting the remote workshop?? anyone else experiencing this or is it just me?? we had this problem in beta 2, and i did report it to fdev at the time but it never got addressed i see .....

Yep, Casper stays in your ship till logout.
No, the journal records contained names as the were typed. Only in game they were displayed with capital letters.
My carrier just left me behind even though I was docked on it. I set it to jump and it went through the motions, but after completion I was still in the same system, I checked the gal map and it was also at the destination existing in two places at the same time. I undocked from it and then requested docking at which the game crashed. on restart the carrier was gone and I had to fly to the destination to catch it up
sounds like your carrier crew played a bit of a joke on you.... lol
It might have helped if we could have tested owning a FC for more than the 1 week (those of us not blessed with 5 billion credit bank balances)
More of these issues may have shown up.
I've not had any real problems myself, so rest of game seems to be working pretty much as before.
