VO 1.8.285-286 incuded:

- Conquerable station sectors Bractus M-14, Latos I-8, and Pelatus C-12 are now running experimental code to test a solution to weapon hits sometimes not registering. Please test these sectors and report any problems through support tickets.
- The virtual mouse (when used through a gamepad controller) on mobile devices now highlights the virtual keyboard button that was selected so multiple presses of 'A' on the gamepad will repeat the same action again.

Please note the changes to the current conquerable station sectors. We've been putting a lot of development effort into tracking down and eliminating the periodic "no-hit" issues that crop up during certain types of player events. We think we have greatly improved the situation, but as the changes are quite major, we're unwilling to roll them out universe-wide without smaller "regional" testing in specific sectors. So, testing and feedback on this new implementation is both welcome and likely to result in a more rapid adoption of the new code throughout the galaxy.

We've had daily battles over conquerable stations over the past week. Things are looking at escalating further so you can expect the new sector daemons to get a fair amount of testing.

Wow. This strikes me as a MMO first; specific parts of the universe running specific code, with the intent of further adoption throughout the rest of the galaxy. Welcome to the cyberpunk age :-).

wouldn't hurt to drop the code in Sedina D-2 as well, given that's where nation war usually is. That said, NW has had poor attendance as of late.

But maybe people will come if they know it's testing the new code.

+1 to D2

We'll see what we can do to add Sedina D-2.

I agree. Add it to D2 for the NW tomorrow. Will be great to see if the code is as effective as we hope.
