I'm getting pissed of it. EVERY TIME you press warp&jump to gates you NEED to check if system still remembers about "jump" part of an order. Because in like 80% of time ship won't do anything after finishing warp. ----fixed for future investigation ---

Works perfectly fine for me.

Since the warp speed changes, sometimes I stop a little away from 0 and my ship slowboats a bit before jumping, but the warp-jump still works everytime.

Are you sure you aren't just seeing the same thing and assuming the jump part has been missed?

yes, i DO sure.

Usually it looks like this:
- ships leaves warp
- speed gets to 0
- you wait, nothing happens
- you wait, nothing happens
- you wait, nothing happens
- then you press 'jump' and you get 'session is already changing' like this function is already active

it mostly happens when you use d-scan while warping. But not only in this case.

It looks like when you pressed 'warp&XXX' you should not touch Eve client at all Lol

I've played this game for a long, long time, and I have no idea what this is about.

It has always worked fine for me :\.

Both warp buttons are next to each other so it is possible you may be pressing the wrong one.

usually i select gates and then press button 'D' which is shortcutted to 'dock/jump/activate gate' function.

Will check it for sure. Would be very embarassing for me if this is my fail .....

Ive had this issue often but I dont consider it that annoying considering this is a newer function and I'm used to having to click jump after warping anyways. It should be fixed but yea...nothing to rage over.

I think it is a clientside issue as I have lots of weird problems on my ****** laptop, such as dropdown menus not offering the warp function, and instead suggest I approach things that are AU's away. Once everything is loaded after the session change, it updates. Perhaps this is similar. If you have short warps and jump straight away it, the client may have not finished loading.

Just speculation from experience.

back in 2012 i lose Daredevil because of this. Pressed 'warp&dock' and left to bed. Returned to find myself in cloning facility: ship didn't dock and occasional roamer found it. Yes, this was my mistake to not check....

Just recently pressed 'warp&jump' without any flags and timers. Was needed to go afk for like 30-40 seconds. Returned just in time to safe my ship from faction NPC which already started to eat it. Again: ship warped and didn't jump.

It's OK when you sit there and control your ship every moment. Just annoying but nothing to rage about. The problem is when you NEED to go afk for a moment and you simply cannot trust this simple function "warp, approach if needed, jump".

If you are getting that message then it sounds like your client has logged the fact that you requested a jump but for whatever reason it hasn't been transmitted to the server.

I've noticed that my connection can drop as the music stream I listen to cuts out (plugging Eve Radio here) but the game client carries on happily until I ask it to do something that requires a server side check like open cargo. After a period of time the client gets wise and drops you out but if the connection to the net comes back fast enough you stay in as if nothing had happened but some commands get lost.

Could be this is what is happening to you.

Ive had this happen to me quite a bit on a lot of different clients and across 4 computers. Its annoying but I think its a feature tbh.

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

*Snip* Removed reply to a deleted post. ISD Ezwal.

Also, to OP - this sounds like a "transmission" problem at your end (you're clicking the correct button, but for some reason the second bit isn't being sent to the server when you get there?). I've had this occassionally too, but it's been when my internet connection has been...uncooperative.

Edit: Also, could you just confirm for my curiosity that this isn't regularly happening when you're trying to jump into Jita, hmmm?

for me its this. If you press several times dock/jump button, it will only warp to desired object, wont dock or jump. Single click on jump/dock works always.

Happens to me every single time
happens more if you're alt tabbed as well
It's very annoying, but I found the only threads on the issue years back and they "fixed" it..



I should Note that my internet is **** so it's probably that..

Well thank you but no thanks!

I'm having this issue to be honest. Yeah its probably a feature but an annoying one. I mean you used to jump pretty much as soon as you get into 2500m but now you cruise to 0 before jumping (every time and every gate). Sometimes it doesn't jump at all.

This also happens when docking too. Obvious action delay is obvious (probably trying to slow down client commands to the server).

Lol

I do Jita other way: i kill wartargets on entrances.

And nope: most of the times it happens when i use d-scan while warping. Maybe this makes some interference in command queues... Not sure. It looks like when you don't touch client at all it does its job well.

So the problem is you pressing buttons?

Stop pressing all the buttons! Lol
