Hi,

After today's patch I got a map bug.

Specifically, I patched fine, no problems. I have 3 accounts. 1 of my accounts works fine (no bugs). The other 2 accounts have the following bug: When I hit F10 (map), it doesn't show the world map control panel. I hit contrl tab in case it is hidden somewhere but it's not. It's just not there or anywhere. This happens for all chars in those 2 accounts. I have tried resetting cache, using the repair tool through Eve launcher, rebooting, etc.

Hoping for some advice(s).

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

same here. (link to my post in issues thread)

Problem exists on one of two accounts.

As a workaround i found out you can bring up the control panel by right klicking in the map and choosing the correct option.

Ah, a little too late to test your workaround.

I, myself, as a last resort, I just cleared all my user specific settings through eve launcher -> eve client settings -> user specific client settings -> clear

This brought my world map control panel back but ofc, I lost all my settings. At least it worked.

So anyway, I remembered I had my old settings backed up, so I re-installed them to give your workaround a try cuz I was too lazy to re-do all my settings in all my chars in all my 3 accounts :-/

Your workaround works the same for me (brings back world map control panel) but the problem is it doesn't keep it permanently. Meaning, once you exit map, next time you go to map again, you have to re-do the same procedure.

So I've searched around a little, tested some settings and stuff and I found out that if you go to world map control panel -> star map -> animation and un-check the auto-zoom to selection, then the bug dissapears. The paradox is that by un-checking the auto-zoom doesn't actually work as intented because you still get auto-zoomed when you go to the map.

So to sum it up, we go to world map control panel -> star map -> animation and :

1) un-check Auto Frame selection --> works as intented
2) check Auto Frame selection and then check Auto Zoom to selection ---> bug where the world map control panel dissapears from there on when you go to map
3) check Auto Frame selection and uncheck Auto Zoom to selection -> bug dissapears but strangely enough when you go to map you actually auto zoom to selection

I decided to stick to #3 option till we have some official word about it or w/e. It's just too much of a pain in the a** to re-do all your settings for all your chars otherwise.

Moved / copied this thread to the more appropriate Rubicon 1.2 issues thread -> https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4252355#post4252355 so this thread can be closed I guess.

Good job doing all this research. :)

I have just deleted and redone all my settings. Took approx. half an hour, though at least i had a backup of my overview Settings.
Map settings window is back.

Thx ccp. "Patches" in this game regularly break things. What?
