Overview not refreshing since patch

Since today's citadel patch there's a bug with overview. It seems to work the first time undocking but after docking and undocking again it's always coming back.

Ships on overview are going dim when I warp out of range of them but never disappearing. If I warp back on grid w the ship then I have 2 instances of it on the overview. One dimmed where I last saw it and one normal.

Also when warping to a point 150+ on the same grid, the overview line item for ships that were on the grid stop updating. For example. I undock and there's a typhoon sitting on the undock, 44km away. I warp to a BM 500 km away. The ship label in space continues to update the correct range to the typhoon but on overview its not dimmed as if I warped off grid but still shows the ship at 44km from me.

I run 2 clients and both are experiencing the exact same bug. Only solution thus far is to completely shut down the client and start over but it keeps coming back anyway. Due to risk of having a heavily borked overview I don't think I'll be undocking much till this is fixed.

Changing sorting of columns starts the overview refreshing again but has to be done every time I warp.

Just an update to this, selecting a different overview tab or reordering the columns makes the problem go away UNTIL you dock again and it doesn't come back after every warp. Every time you dock and then undock the problem returns.

So work around atm is to switch overview tabs every time you undock. Only time will tell of course if the problem comes back under circumstances other than redocking.

Maybe related and I tried submitting a bug about it ingame, but the ingame bug report gives me an error

Quote:
An unknown error occurred when sending bug report.
Details:
Unexpected error from the bugs service


But anyhow, if I set a destination while undocked the "next gate" isn't highlighted anymore.

1. Undock
2. Set destination to something
3. ??? nothing happens on overview

Have you tried changing tabs and see if it updates? And out of curiosity, seems some ppl have this issue while others are uneffected. So just trying to rule out causes. Are you using any modified or imported overviews? Tab colors, custom font sizes, that kind of thing.

Out of curiosity I've started asking other ppl with this problem if they have custom ui's. (tab colors etc) So far it seems everyone does. If anyone else can verify that would be lovely.

Meh, Doubt that it's related. Curious though if you (CCP) have been able to reproduce the problem? If so that would go a long way towards shutting down my OCD and letting me stop trying to figure out whats wrong on my end. Smile

Experienced something similar last night. Fair amount of lag on the overview resulting in inaccurate values such as incorrect transversal, velocity and distance readings or trying to dock into a jump bridge or trying to jump into a station etc, seeing reds/neuts that weren't there, not seeing reds/neuts that were there etc. Plus my camera is ****** (doesn't focus on my ship by default, have to select look at my ship to fix it after every jump), plus I cannot turn off modules whatsoever. What's going on?

Yup. Found myself docking in a station other day when I activated a FW complex gate due to overview not refreshing (had previously undocked from said station). Lol

Funny at times but seriously annoying bug. Will spam you with some bug reports when I get a chance cos two patches later would indicate you don't have fixing it high up on your to do list. Blink

funnily enough i have this problem only with 2 of 3 accounts. one is working fine.

you can use this workaround when you undock.

Just sort your overview at some column and change it back to how you like it. it will work then.

+1 to this, overview bug involving distance after undocking, will show something is 30au away when it is actually 0, changing tabs temp fixes it

I am experiencing this overview issue as well. It reminds me of the bug several years ago when Crucible was released

Just to share, in the patch issues thread CCP have stated they have a fix for this in testing (one that should work this time I assume Blink) and its due to be deployed tomorrow (tuesday).

The fix didnt work! I just warped to a belt and the overview didnt update at all! I saw the stuff in space, but overview showed nothing. I waited 2-3 min ... still not updated. Then i went AFK for like 10min and then the overview finally showed the stuff around me.

This is a serious bug. Just imagine you warp into a fight and you cant see the enemies because your overview is bugged.

This bug still exists ... it just took several minutes until overview updated. Even after ~10mins some wrecks are shown greyed in the overview, although they dont exist anymore in space.
