FIXES

Experimental Contracts

  • Full details on experimental contract features can be found in a blog from CCP Atlas entitled Contracts Features.

  • Blueprint copies and blueprint originals can now be searched independently by selecting the appropriate option in the Category drop-down.

  • Auction, Want to buy and Want to sell can now be searched independently.

  • Security filters have been added allowing you to search any combination of high security, low security and null security space.

  • An "Auction" tag has been added to auction contracts to differentiate from Item Exchange.

  • Clicking an entry in the contracts search results will now highlight that entry.

  • Full result ordering and order direction are now combined into one drop-down box and moved to the top of the window in an attempt to clear up confusion between full-result (server-side) ordering and per-page (client-side) ordering. When the full-result drop-down box changes a search is initiated and the per-page sorting is changed to match.

  • Added buttons to toggle between 'detailed' view and 'list' view.

  • A new column, "Date Created" has been added.

  • "Find in contracts" has been removed from places where it doesn't belong. It should now follow "view market details" more closely.

  • If you change the per-page sorting it persists between searches until you change the results sorting.

  • The location drop-down now remembers your last five location searches between sessions.

  • The "Item Type" input field now accepts simple wildcard searches using the '*' token. You can enter quite advanced queries into this field when combining the wildcard search with the metatype and category searches.

    • An example might be 'Module:Pith*hard|Deadspace' which will search for any modules starting with pith and containing 'hard' of the metagroup 'deadspace'.

  • Fixed an issue where some filter fields did not remember their values when the window was closed and reopened.

  • The page will always scroll to top when switching between pages.

  • Several grammatical and typographical errors have been corrected in the UI.

Market & Contracts

  • In-progress courier contracts now have an in-space submenu for the drop-off and pick-up stations when you are in the correct system, which is similar to how missions work.
  • Creating a courier contract from a plastic wrap will now fill in the destination for you allowing for easier 'forwarding' courier contract creation.
  • Contract right click menu in all contracts search views now includes a 'station' submenu with two submenus in the case of courier contracts.
  • Contracts now enter 'require attention' mode when there are six hours left instead of 24.
  • Item selector in create contract wizard now shows the number of selected items and will display in red if you go above 200.
  • Context menus have been added to the item list for 'Want To Buy' contracts.
  • Reward per jump is now shown in the contract details window. this will now show you how much isk per jump the contract yields using your current autopilot settings. Reward per jump is likewise shown in the Create Contract windows and uses the creator's autopilot settings.
  • The create contract window for courier services now shows you if your route will pass through a security boundary.
  • The state of your sell window (normal/advanced) will persist (remember your last used setting) on a character basis.
  • Market orders in Player-owned outposts will now display the system name as well as the station name.

Assets & Items

  • Asset searches can now be sorted by number of jumps so that you can easily view your proximity to locally stored assets.
  • You can now drag and drop items into closed containers without having to open them first.

Agents

  • Added a verification message when you remove agents, so removing the wrong agent by mistake becomes less likely.

Exploration & Deadspace

NPC's

  • It is no longer possible to lose a ship to CONCORD by only using logistic modules (like remote armor repairer, shield transporter, energy transfer array, ...) or logistic drones. They cannot be activated in high-sec on targets with Global Criminal Countdown (GCC) or outlaws and they will be deactivated if the target gets GCC while being assisted.
  • Officer difficulty has been increased to reflect their value.
  • Incursion sites are now taxed in the same manner as regular bounties.
  • Adjusted Incursion site contribution to give slightly less influence. We also adjusted the influence regain in low- security and null security, to make sure they can be completed.

Sound

  • An issue has been resolved where Incursion sound effects were not playing for some players when entering an Incursion systems.
  • An issue has been resolved where Incursion sound effects were not playing for players who login with their ship docked in station.

  • Priority modification in the overview settings now has drag-and-drop functionality.
  • The 'Autopilot' tab in the starmap now has drag and drop functionality for sorting waypoints.

  • A fix has been deployed for improved performance to EVE Gate.
  • Some minor updates to the EVE Gate layout have been added.

Localization

  • A number of translation/localization related issues have been resolved in various parts of the UI and item descriptions in game, as well as EVE Gate.
  • Previously unlocalized text in the character creator has been revised and translated.
  • 'Incursion' is now consistently being referred to as 'Übergriff' in the German client.
  • The translation for the term command center, in Planetary Interaction, has been changed to 'Befehlszentrale' since the previous version was potentially offensive.
