Dscan and Probe scanner have suddenly started being closed by default so I have to open them every time I undock. Why has this changed ? there is no activity in Eve that I do where these scanners are not open. I now have to open them both about 20 times an hour

That's so annoying, undock can't see anything scan is closed. Why can't they just leave the scanner alone the new thing is a fail nobody uses it ?

On the subject of things that didn't need removing why did they change the fitting window so it no longer shows you what the CPU and PG would be if you fitted a module when you hover it?

Click the "pop out" button at the top of the windows and all will be as before.

Isn't there a close window cross in the top right?
Click "open in separate window" icon to get the lists out of the map window then close the map as you would normally.

And it will stay like that too!

It took me all of .5 seconds to figure that out logging in after the patch. I cannot fathom how this is baffling so many people.

The uncoupling of the map isn't an issue

That doesn't make it as before it still closes every time you dock/log out

Hmm, I am not having that issue. I clicked the button to uncouple the scan interface from the map window and put it in the corner of the screen where I used to have it and then closed the map window. Now it pretty much works same as before.

Do you understand what I am saying ? When you undock in an area where you use dscan you need to use it immediately when you undock. So it is inconvenient that it closes every time you dock which it didn't prior to the patch.

I won't be able to test this right away due to alcohol consumption, but have you tried to clear the game cache to make sure you don't have a hung setting?

Best time to test these things IMO. Usually in your shiniest ship, the one with the expensive modules on it. And test it in a wormhole or nullsec or something for bonus points.

The only things I did after the patch was pop the probe and d-scan windows out of the map, and then move the d-scan window to the bottom of the screen because ccp decided to move the scan button to the bottom of the window (otherwise the scan button risks being overlapped if I temporarily have some other large window open).

The d-scan stays open all the time by itself as it used to.

I have made some people some very happy killmails. I once made 6 jumps through low-sec in an Orca... my corp mates lost their minds... and I lived! I have a drunkem dream of visiting all the system in EVE in a Fenrir... but I don't think I can live that long.
