gatten and multilog errors immediately upon logging in, no impact

Unable to jump. I set course and get a countdown of 15 which is immediately aborted.
{UPDATE} You have to be in physics mode to jump.

There is a timer in the station, at least in the bar, that imposes a time period before you can chat again, but the timer seems to be broken, so you can't speak after the first time. Hmm, maybe this should be a feature in Earth bars.

also, crash if you leave certain stations.
One Serco station and one NT station.

Thanks for the jump hint. Could someone explain how to chat now? I seem to talk to myself in global chat, teamchat doesn't work, and I just see in-sector talk.

Man, I'm confused...

I was able to jump in arcade mode, but I had to be very, very careful not to move the mouse. Even then 75% of the time the jump would abort. Very frustrating.

Also.....Black market mission, Not gonna say which sector, I took the mission to trade for other nation special ships, messaged the bot, and it told me to talk to the sector 18 bot.....BUG

The OS X 10.2.x client doesn't run at all due to a library Ray didn't realize was only available in 10.3. We are releasing a fix for this and other crashing bugs in a few minutes.

Ok, this jump sequence aborted bug get's annoying, both physics and arcade don't work for me.

Weirdness. Do you see a countdown at all, or is the "plot course" button unavailable to you?

[edit: d'oh, the countdown has been temporarily removed]

3.5.1 is released; bugfixes, listed courtesy of Ray:

- made Vendetta run on Mac OS X version other than 10.3.4
- station chat maximize text is now the same size (more or less) as the minimized station chat
- station menus all correctly hide when chat is maximized
- The Bar station chat timer should work correctly now
- fixed client crash when leaving station and server closes your connection at the same time
- couple stations had missing launchbays which caused the client to crash
- black market missions don't require you to be in sector 18 now
- chat msgs that have sectorid now show sector name instead
- temporarily removed jump countdown
- tweaked trade mission so you don't have to go so far.

...except now long-range chat looks like this:
(nation) [Odia sector M-14
] <You> what happened to my message?!

so.. that will be fixed for 3.5.2.

Actually that did belong here....The def bots were in the wrong place, which the devs fixed, so HAH!

Uhhhh... gatten doesn't work, and the default value was lowered. It used to be 0.12, which was fine, although I set it to 0.15. Now it's too low. How do I change my gatten back up to 0.15?
Jun 24, 2004 Forum Moderator link
Ya that's one of the first errors when we log in. Something about a gatten variable not found.
Jun 24, 2004 raybondo link
we removed some of the glow parameters because the defaults should have been fine.

i accepted a trade mission from Eo's Welcome and it told me to bring some cargo to Odia J-9. Problem is that J-9 is to close to the sun and as such you cant actualy get there.

The MkII Centurion (same specs, med engine) cheaper than the Centurion (same spec, light engine).
Jun 24, 2004 roguelazer link
That's not a bug Cohen. Sometimes it's cheaper, sometimes it isn't. The centurion is available everywhere, the mk2 only some places. So it's a "semi-special" ship, and thus has different prices, which fluctuate more than the normal centurion.

I took a cargo mission in Helios D-2 and it said I had to bring back cargo.. from Helios D-2. So, that was an interesting mission, of about 1:47 minute.

Sheean: had one of those too :D
