Something some of you wont find. or notice but also handy :)

With today's 1.1 Retribution patch, CCP has quietly broken some of your overview settings. Specifically, in the Types subtab of the Filter tab in your Overview Settings window, the Battlecruisers checkbox has been replaced by two new ones: Attack Battlecruiser and Combat Battlecruiser.

As a result, there is a good chance that in some of your overview presets, one or the other type of battlecruiser will be turned off, and therefore "invisible" to you until you turn it back on. Be sure to check ALL of your overview presets and recheck anything CCP has turned off.

This. I don't see why CCP couldn't have automatically had both of them checked in overviews if Battlecruiser was checked previously.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Maybe to force players to do something else than post on GD?

Lol

Sucks for the people who never look at the forums.

Or... for people who have lots of overviews they now have to go through one-by-one.

Thanks for the warning. I'm guessing this would be a good week to pvp in a battlecruiser. Smile

Typical CCP, make changes, but don't consider the initial state of the new change to be important.....Who'd a' thought....Roll


Seems like they did the same thing when they brought out T3's, always nice to have your pvp overview excluding the hot new ship...Oops

Sort of related: mousing over ship icons in space isn't showing any text. I've got to click the ship in order to see the player, corp, ship, etc.

I did notice some ships weren't on my overview earlier. I hadn't narrowed it down to battlecruisers, though that seems about right. Thanks for the information.

From Help chat a few minutes ago:

James Amril-Kesh > Are you aware that ships in space don't give info on mouseover anymore? now you have to click them
James Amril-Kesh > is that a known bug that's getting fixed?
CCP karkur > James Amril-Kesh , yeah, fixed and should be patched on thursday

Thursday is unacceptable by GD standards. Hell, yesterday isnt acceptable by GD standards.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Default should be on if you add new entries.
It's easy to notice and disable with a right click if they appear in your overview.
If they default to off then you first have to somehow notice, then wander through the menus to enable it.

I just noticed blockade runner was off too, but that could just be me.

No, that's the other new class of ships.
