Issues, Workarounds & Localization

In the past few weeks I have noticed that when clicking to lock targets after immediately using another action the client has a tendency to lock up. In several cases this only causes the game to become non responsive for a minute or so then it comes back around to working. Other times the entire client locks up and has to be force closed.

I first thought this was just a localized error with my client and had not paid much heed to it as I had not lost anything of real value and I have not done much PVP since Rubicon. I found out through a few other members of my corporation that they have had similar issues with their clients locking up. The inter-corporation discussion started upon me losing a Proteus after undocking and targeting an hostile player.

In this specific case, the interface became unresponsive but I kept taking damage. I could see chat messages appear and was able to still communicate through the voice communication client I was running in the background. I had to force close my eve client and restart it. Once restarted (and in a station after losing ship and pod) the game worked fine.
