We cannot say one way or the other. SISI mirrorings are somewhat problematic these days due to our now-very-rapid deployment schedules as we really require as much SISI availability as we can get our hands on.

But I'm currently working on stuff that might help you if your problem is that your user account info has changed. Of course this is just work in progress and I have no clue when it will go live on TQ, but if it does before the full mirror it will have to restore all user data to TQ proper. So that could help you?

If it doesn't, what is it you need? Since I just started this I'm all for considering every nook and cranny of possibilities.

well, I'm getting the incorrect account/password message when trying to login, with both accounts (I know its not fat fingers).
I was just assuming that because the accounts were inactive (1 inactive, 1 new today) when the latest mirror was taken then that was the reason....but I could be wrong!

I want my worlds most over-engineered EFT clone!...dammnit! Big smile

I just bought this toon (using the CCP sanctioned ISK purchase forums). However my account wasn't active when the last Singularity copy was made.

So as far as things your tool will hopefully do: I see lots of people buy toons every day. When toons are transferred from one account to another they should be also transferred on Singularity so the new owner can login and test with them.

Thanks and I hope the new tool is live soon! But I know how it goes when you take on a background project. :)

personally, I love and hate the idea of frequent mirrors, depending on how they're done.

I hate them because, I do a lot of sov testing that is dependent on strategic index, which takes time. Since there are no more "sov bumps", this has become even more problematic when ccp decides to remirror in 45-60 days, right about the time I get the strategic index needed, which leaves me little time to conduct the actual testing I set out to do in the first place.....frustrating to say the least.

BUT: I do love the idea because I also have another account/alt toon with a corp full of newbies itching to get on singularity for testing as their own, as well as using it for our "training ground" for PvP, testing new features, etc....and of course the world's most over-engineered EFT as a huge plus (yes, I'm religious with that.....).

Anyway, just throwing in my two cents. I'm not expecting the devs to allow us to have our cake and eat it too, so to speak, but then again it would be totally AWESOME if, for example, sov came with strategic level 3 (minimum) from the gate to speed up testing and make things less.....painful.
