[Rubicon] Client Freeze

On Sisi, I was trying out the Paladin with the new bastion module at a Sansha Provincial HQ. It was completely faction and Deadspace fit and having no problems tanking everything. Then when the Commander spawned, the client completely froze. I waited a few moments thinking it was maybe lag, but when there was no change, I hit the Windows key to my desktop.

However my windows cursor was replaced by the Eve cursor and I was unable to click on any desktop icons. I alt-tabbed back to the client only to be greeted by a black screen. I then opened task manager through ctrl-alt-delete and ended the ccp.exe process. I got my windows cursor back and was once more able to use my desktop.

I re-logged into Sisi to find my ship near structure because it had not warped do to the bastion module not turning off. However my hardeners and repper had deactivated. I finished the site without further incident. Later, I was running an Ancient Ruins site, and about 2 mins into the second room, the client froze again. I had to end the process again and re-log. I did not make it back in game however, as the client froze again while loading my selected character.

I got back in after ending the process again and re-logging. I found my self in my pod and all the Deadspace mods were destroyed with my ship. I assume the bastion module did not deactivate for some reason but the repper and hardeners probably did. Needless to say I'm quite frustrated right now. I don't have any Deadspace replacement mods on sisi, so I'll have to wait for the mirror. I'm quite sure the client freeze bug was introduced with the current sisi build as it has never happened to me before but I don't know if the bastion module not turning off is or not.

Hi!

Thanks for your report! I will try these sites to see if this is anyhow reproducible.
For the case that you are testing this a bit more - please run logserver.exe (see https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Log_Server) while you are running these sites. Attach the log files to a bug report and add as much information as possible, if this happens again.

Thanks!

Experiencing the same problem currently, in just about every mission I've run so far. Having to force the client to shut down and reboot to log back in before the ship pops to regain control.

Will run the log server, but for reference this doesn't seem to be site specific, it's hitting me everywhere as testing out my Kronos is going.

When your gut instincts tell you something is wrong, trust them. When your heart tells you something is right, ignore it, check with your brain first. Accept nothing, challenge everything.

This happened to me as well. When shifting out of bastion in a pocket.

This happens to me when landing on a grid with titans on it. For Mac client that is.

This is happening to me now on TQ in level IV missions.

Only when using Mauraders, game locks up, leads to not responding menu in windows. I was lucky to start logging in on other client instance right away, because my tank remained running, ship didn't warp off due to bastion active, but bastion itself turned off in meantime.

Would suggest that bastion remains active after DC, some ships are depending on that module to keep their tank acceptable, and should remain running as any other defensive module.
