Cargo hold closing on docking

So, we went from the cargo hold opening after every jump to now having the cargo hold close when docking? What was wrong with leaving it open if we had it open and leaving it closed if it was closed?!? This adds an extra step for unloading loot when returning to station. Was this intentional? Anyone else having the same issue?

I never saw the alleged "cargo hold opens after every jump" issue.

I DID see an issue with trying to drag a stack of an item to a similer stack of an item IN the cargo hold and that erroring out with a "lack of space" issue, even when there was tons of space available - THAT at least had a workaround and got fixed in the current client release.

The current "cargo hold closed when docking" issue though I'm seeing 100% of the time, and is VERY bloody irritating. Once again, it seems that CCP didn't bother TESTING a "fix" before they released it.

Confirming that I am experiencing this issue as well. I cleared my game cache just in case, but both accounts still experience this.

It's not a huge deal, but it's somewhat irritating--especially since I can no longer just double-click the hangar background to open the cargo bay of the active ship. I would really appreciate it if this issue saw some love from the devs. In theory it should be a really simple fix.

I'm having the same issue... and yes, it is really, really, really irritating. Ugh

not only does it now shut when you dock, but if you then undock it will actually reopen when you get into space

The worst thing for me about the cargohold bugs isn't so much it closing, easily opened quickly via keyboard.

I have a nice layout for stations with every window precisely positioned and locked where I like em. Switch ships, old cargohold stays open, open new cargohold and it pops itself above the old one, time to unlock and reposition windows.

And great, the cargo button on the hud now opens and close the hold, how about giving the shortcut key the same functionality. You know, the shortcut that appears whenever you hover your mouse over the cargo button and you're all like, gee there's a shortcut that has the same functionality as the cargo button? Awesome! Nope.

i get the same thing, and as a freighter pilot, it's annoying for me .. also when hauling ore from belt to unload in station, have to reopen cargo to unload. ..

thats one bug i'd like to see fixed ..

also, warp tunnels are very much random if they wanna be visible or not ..

My warp tunnels occasionally get confused. The ship will align to the object, but the warp tunnel will form off by about 90 degrees, making it appear that my ship is warping sideways. However, at least that doesn't affect gameplay.
