All my bookmarks are stacked on the sun in system map view.

As above. http://i.imgur.com/uBBS4cr.png

None of my bookmarks are near the sun.
None of my bookmarks are showing up where they should.

Is this working as intended?

Yup, "so and so system locations (23)".

Not so much "as intended" as much as "as it ended up being written." I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for how it got this way, and that probably has something to do with Pinky Pie, the Banhammer and a little too much Brennivín.

But seriously, that marker on the star just tells you how many locations you have bookmarked in that system. It's not actually a stack of bookmarks that you can't navigate through.

The bookmarks themselves will be visible when you zoom in and pan to the appropriate locations. I don't like it; you can't see all the bookmarks in a system in one view.

Hit esc to bring up settings, should be a check box in there to opt out of beta map testing Oops

Try using the other map, it's not buggy.

It also has the advantage of being functional.

If you keep using the old map instead of reporting problems with the new map, the new map will never get better.

Sure, meee, but what about newbies that don't know the difference. And still, bugs reported, no need for vets to use the map all the time. Seriously, I lost a Tengu because of the beta map.

Thanks for all the help!

I submitted a bug report, I might just have to use the old map for a wee bit. I understand Maras point, but it can be hella frustrating for new people trying to learn around a buggy interface.

When they add D-scan back into the new map it MIGHT become usable. Until then it is a "pretty" liability and should be avoided at all costs. (What if CCP misinterprets usage numbers as approval and disables the old map? The thought horrifies me.)
