U15 update notes are online!

Could someone explain how a particular fleet carrier is selected as a target now?

If you choose a group of FCs in the system map, it will select (I think) one of them, possibly the "first one" (by some metric). But what if I don't want to select the first one?

Fleet carriers now appear in the points of interest menu, but they can't be targeted there either. If I try it goes through the "targeting" animation and and then... nothing. It doesn't get targeted. (This is quite probably a bug.)

The only way I have found to target a particular FC is to do it through the navigation tab in the left HUD panel, but that's a very inconvenient way of doing it.

POI target selection seems to be somewhat bugged, not just for FCs. At least settlements are affected too it seems.

The Hamlet Cigar mode.

That would have been a reaally cool moment if that music had started playing...

Its what I heard in the early days when I saw people self destruct by having to overheat the ship and wait for the inevitable.

Is it just me, or have they adjusted/fixed some graphics when flying in a system? More particularly, for the longest time I noticed that when eg. flying towards a planet it would look like a bright dot, but then it would disappear, and only when you get quite close it would start appearing again. Now the dot doesn't disappear.

(I haven't read the entire announcement thread, so this might be discussed there...)

Yes that particular bug has been fixed.
