FSS crashing when zooming in on bodies over 40,000Ls away

#FH · May 2, 2019

i've been out exploring since chapter 4 dropped and i've only noticed this very recent. But when i zoom in on a body this happens

i have to fly out to a distant star to scan the bodies. This is really breaking the game. i've reported the issue and i see others are getting a black screen as to my funny screen collapse back into 1D

I am getting the same thing happen.

I put a bug report in last week but it seems to have been removed.

Ah wait, found it https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/1242

Same here. Same thing happening to me.

Same here.

It's now almost unusable for me.

I am on my way to WP11 catching up & I am considering turning the scanner module off, when I zoom into a body the screen slips sideways & I cannot scan.

Pointing the ship at angle & flying for a few seconds usually cures this.

Yup, OP I had the exact same thing... restarted the game several times... now the planet doesn't show up but the details do... can't work like this guys

Both mine and buckrabbit had the same problem in our streams too last night i found if u do travel a little way towards the planet it seem to fix it for me not sure if any one else tried this fix for now

I seem to get this with planets over 150k LS away. I had two systems, one after the other, with clusters of planets over 300k. It took me repeated tries as I flew closer to get the FSS to work. It finally did at 137k. I've raised a ticket (I think there are a few now) yesterday morning.

It happens to me too every time. It seems related to the bodies' distance and alignment. Pointing at the body and flying to it, sometimes, eliminates the bug. I'll have to check specific distances and post more details.

So, no acknowledgement from ED yet?

Same to me

это началось после Апрельского патча, когда заходишь в FSS происходит такой глюк.
it started after the April patch, when you go to the FSS there is such a glitch.

i logged a report on the issue tracker and noticed there are +6 reports about this problem. None of them are confirmed as of yet.

I was getting this, but it was when over 100,000 LS. Just within 100k it worked.

krusty23 · May 3, 2019

Same, which is quite annoying when you are returning from Beagle Point wanting to scan as you go. :-/

I'm going to pretend to be Wight Night and say, "I'm tired of you people calling things game-breaking when they are not! Is your disc actually broken? Did your PC shatter into pieces? If not, then this is not game-breaking! You are ruining Frontier's reputation with these words.. STOP IT!!!"

And then I'd brag about how I can work around the bug by flying 40,000 LS and just scan whatever up close, because I'm just that cool.
