Overview bugged?

Hey again,

Im not sure where else to ask this so I figured I'd try my luck here - apologies if i use the wrong forum in advance.
My question is: wrecks, even though checked through overview settings and with the proper setting loaded in my active tab, wrecks just wont show up.
I rightclick a wreck and only get the option to 'remove wreck from overview' so the game does recognize my settings.

Anyone else run into this problem?

There is an option under the states tab (filters -> states) in overview settings that will remove wrecks from your overview if they have been viewed. I would check to make sure that option is not selected. There is also an option under states that removes wrecks from the overview if they are empty, I would check to make sure you have that turned off as well.

Thanks for the swift reply Mathis, but oddly enough, theyre both off.
The wrecks in space also appear white and as full triangles, not just the empty triangles aka looted ones.

I also just noticed during my last mission that this also seems to be the case for Cargo containers.

Quite puzzling.
Its not a major hassle, but simply an oddity that I would prefer to fix.

If anybody else has any suggestions I'd welcome them.

Make sure you are not hiding corp or fleet members. (Having wrecks is quite common in fleets actually.)

If you take all the sand out of the box, only the cat poo will remain.

Try making a new filter showing everything filter-types. If you still don't see it check your filter->states.
If both are all selected and you still don't see em your overview is broken.

Whoops my bad, they should be checked if you want to see them.

What you say is concerning though, if you have wrecks checked under filters -> celestial they should appear if they are full and unviewed even if the two states i suggested are unchecked. As someone else suggested try a fresh overview with everything visible. If they do not appear then you have a bug on your hands.

Apparently activating the default "Loot" setting does show the wrecks and containers.
A bit of a workaround but I've made an additional tab called Loot that I use right now to fix the problem.

Thanks to everyone that took the time to respond.
