@Eventure

What have you done ?

I can't even crash ED anymore lol

I've tried everything, pop ups on, leaving carto and summary open, playing around in TCE's panels while jumping ...
Everything that use to cause crashes won't do it anymore.

There seems to be nothing left to do but play.

Still exploring, I'll be do more in depth trading... feature testing when I get back to civilization.

But I have to agree with punkerich ! You have done an Outstanding job !!!
 
Bug Report 1.42 Beta 2 (Fresh Install)

I will try to tackle one point at a time, it’s quite the mess on my note paper. Here we go:
I tried to test the note taking system of the Stored Locations in depth and found quite a few odd things. First I tested the categories with can be located at a station. Blackmarkets, Outfittings, Parked Ships, Points of Interest, Rare Commodities and Shipyards.

  • Blackmarkets:
Note taking works! Note appears after restart, it’s editable and erasable. Star System, Distance and Inner System Location is colored.
Possible Bug the Note is shared with two other of the above mentioned categories. It appears in Shipyards and Rare Commodities. Editing or deleting this Note form Shipyards and Race Commodities results in a carsh.
Thereafter I deleted the Note in Backmarkets, note is gone from Shipyards and Race Commodities and tried to add one in Shipyards and Race Commodities to look for similar behavior which resulted in crashes.

  • Outfittings:
Note taking works! Note appears after restart, it’s editable and erasable. Star System, Distance and Inner System Location are colored.


  • Parked Ships / Points of Interest:
Here is where it gets wired. On its own both categories seem to work at first glance. Note taking works it’s editable and erasable. Possible Bug: Star System, Distance and Inner System Location are NOT colored and after a restart both entries and with it the notes are not displayed.
If both categories have a note at the same time, the note from the Points of Interest category is loaded in Parked Ships. The Original Parked Ships Note is gone and the whole Point of Interest entry is gone.


  • Resource Extraction
Went to a Resource Extraction Site and added an entry. Note taking works it’s editable and erasable. Possible Bug: Star System, Distance and Inner System Location are NOT colored and after a restart the entry and note are not displayed.


  • Conflict Zones: to be tested.


  • Rare Commodities:
Went to another station because of the above mentioned trouble to check out the connection between Blackmarkets, Race Commodities and Shipyards. Added the Station with all available options (different rare commodity)
Note taking works! It’s editable and erasable. Star System, Distance and Inner System Location are colored. Note is shared between Backmarkets and Shipyards. Difference form Blackmarkets: The Note can be deleted, edited without an error form all three shared categories. After TCE restart the Note is not displayed. The Entry is still there.​


  • Shipyards:
Same as Rare Commodities.​


So I am not really convinced that all these problems are a result of TCE, because no one has mentioned them to this point but the fact that some categories are working and others not seems strange. Can someone else test this out? Another Note all entries that disappeared after a restart had a note, without it the entries acted normal.

Hi Eventure
I have to agree that the job you have been doing with this tool is outstanding !
I have tried 1.43 beta 2 on my 4k display. I no longer have the problem with corrupted screen/panels.
However, I am getting the similar "Error in StartSequence Error Line 577 Error: (6) Overflow" - like Punkerich reported.
TCE continues fine after clicking OK.
 
Actually, I am scanning the market now and getting "Application Defined or Object Oriented Error"
TCE will not continue after this error

Did you having it always on start? If so, you are using a fresh database or your old, tranfered with TDM?

Could be an issue with your database.

Hi
It's happening on every start
I'm using my old one transferred with 1.01 TDM

Please upload your TCE.mdb. Have to check it. Thanks.

Does this mean I mght have to start all over again ?

I didnt think so. Must check, why this error happens. Because it didnt appear on my side, it can be your database.

Station Notes are displayed in Blackmarkets, Rare Commodities, Parked Ships and Shipyards, because all are bound to a station. Outfitting has its own note section.
What error message you getting on edit/delete? Cant find it on your shots or text.

  • Parked Ships / Points of Interest:

No coloration for the three, because all entries have automatically generated notes. So all entries got colored and that is not desired here in case of readability and overview.
Save and reload work here, exchange of note not happened here also. i can confirm, that Parked Ship Notes are not displaying correctly.

Reloading TCE works for me. The notes entered before are displayed here.
Perhaps you could upload your logbook.mdb., so i can check it.

dang, i have to confirm some of the mentioned errors.
points of interest is empty after restart.
some entries in other activities (resource extraction) missing also.
stored ships entry is there, but the chosen ships missing.
all of them is only viable for the session time, after restart it's gone.

eventure, i send you my complete db folder, 7-zipped, per pm.
tell me what additional info you need.

Found the problem, when editing a stored entry (Combat Zones, Parked Ships, POIs, Resource Extractions), the category ID was saved wrong. Interestingly, one lower, than it should.
You can modify the Logbook.mdb > Stored table to correct the issue. The correct ID for the categories are:
2 = Conflict Zones[High]
3 = Conflict Zones[Low]
5 = Parked Ships
6 = Points of Interests
8 = Resource Extractions

Check the note column to find out, what the right category of the entries are.

Will release an update asap to fix that issue, have to find it first.
