I have been playing around with bubbles today and I have noticed something very odd.

Here is my setup:

  1. I set up a start point (A)
  2. ! put a bubble 2AU away (B)
  3. I then created a series of bookmarks at 50km interval starting 150km behind the bubble (when viewed from A) and finishing 150km in front of the bubble.



I then proceeded to warp to my bookmarks so see where the bubble caught me. The bookmarks in front of the bubble operated normally (i.e. pulling me to the surface of the bubble), but the book marks behind did not.

When I warped to the BM that was 50k behind the bubble, I landed at my BM (I should have been caught in the bubble).
When I warped to the BM that was 50k behind the bubble at 30km, I landed 30km behind my BM (20km from the bubble). Is this a bug or did something change with the way bubbles work?

Yeah. Bubbles won't stop you during warp anymore. They can either be used as a drag or a stop from / before a gate unless you want to put the bubble on the gate or a station etc...

I wish they would pull you from warp still Twisted Welcome back to pvp. How long ago did you stop pvp'ing and start mining?
