Hi all,

I've run some data sites in Null and found the following:

Using a cargo scanner I see that a can has a BP in it, I check the info on the BP and it says infinite runs.

I hack the can and then grab the BP and place it into my cargo hold, upon doing another show info, I see that the BP now has 25 runs on it and is a BPC.

Has anyone else run across this?

Is it just a bug and has been reported or is it intentional?

Thanks in advance.

You will only find BPCs from data and relic sites.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

I missclicked on BPC once and it was showed as BPO. It's one of the info options. Generally BPOs have darker blue image/icon.

All faction blueprints are BPC's. There is no faction BPO.

Thanks for the confirmation Rhys.

I'll get some screenshots and post a ticket to CCP tomorrow.

Thanks again.

If it's a bug, it's a bug with the cargo scanner incorrectly showing a BPC as a BPO.

Might be more than just the cargo scanner. I show information on a BPC and it opened as a BPO with infinite runs. Closed it and reloaded the show info and it showed as a BPC, Then i closed and reopened it again it showed a BPO. . . Well I continued like this for a while until Eve crashed. Blink

Once i re launched Eve it seemed to fix that entertaining little bug to my disappointment.

I noticed this when I opened a loot container and clicked show info on a bpc without moving it to my ship first, it showed as a BPO. So not just the cargo scanner.

Save Nemah!

It happens when a BPC is dragged from contract to chat as well. I suspect it's a case where the client can't get any info other than it's a blueprint, so shows it as a packaged BPO (as you would find on the market)

I submitted it as bug report couple of weeks ago. I received no response.

Thanks for the replies guys.

I'm guessing that it's a bug that isn't affecting the overall gameplay so won't be patched until whenever.

Shon Anzomi, you should request a follow up.

It's a good idea to 'Clear All Cache Files' every once in a while, especially after updating game patch. It will initiate a re-log which usually clears out most of those little inconvenient bugs.

'Clear All Cache Files' option can be found in Esc menu - 'Reset Settings' tab.
