Known issues updated to include the wormhole EoL issue, and the reduction in Combat scanner probe strength. Both fixes are currently scheduled for tomorrow, providing final testing goes well. Thanks for your reports and patience everyone! ---

please bring back the ability to use mouse scroll wheel to adjust the probe scanner slide bar. clicking on it is a bit cumbersome as the notches are a bit small and tends to cause the radius to jump too large / small then what is wanted. the wheel was much easier to use and accurate. ---

So far the patch has been great. I enjoy the new content and it has been a good release. There’s only one minor bug: When in space and performing an action such as docking the notification popup flashes in contrast colors. Its the popup that shows messages such as: "Your docking request has been accepted. Your ship will be towed into station." or "You cannot do that while warping." It did not do this before the patch. Now every time when docking or clicking a greyed out icon (such as “warp to”), it flashes in a bright color (almost white) and then turns black. This is very annoying and distracts from the game experience. Eve design was always very subtle and enjoyable. For example, the combat and mining notifications are very friendly to the eye. This new change is a departure from that. Reverting this change would be great. Or even having the ability to turn it off in the options would be an amazing improvement. ---

Using the refitting window, removing/adding expanded cargohold modules to a JF will not update the cargo-hold window view of available cargo space. Same for modules decreasing cargo space - no update. Trying to undock however, displays an error message that your cargo hold is to small for your cargo, so just connect back that function to the cargo-window update again, will you please? You know what? After writing the above down with my EVE-client open on another screen, suddenly after a few minutes, the window DID update the available space, I just saw the bar shift in the corner of my eye! But it took like 2 minutes or so. Also, now, the updates are immideate again when adding/removing expanded cargohold modules to my JF, as it used to be before the patch. So it seems the above is only valid initially, I guess once enough hamsters has been assigned, it works as intended. So get more hamsters pls! ---

I believe that fitting screen can get visual delays (the actual fitting change is done, it’s not just shown) if you start making changes immediately before all icons have been drawn. If you wait 2-3 secs until all fitting screen icons have been completely drawn, you will get no visual delays. This is older issue, not introduced with this patch. ---

You broke simultaneous delivery of courier packages somehow. When I highlight several packages and right click -\> deliver on the highlighted lot, I now get only 1 notification. After confirming that one notification, only 1 package is delivered. This one notification also shows several checkboxes “Do not ask me again”. EBR-139705 ---

@CCP_Habakuk and @CCP_Lebowski Hi! Not sure if this is the right sub forum… I tried to place the info into a german sub forum but I guess nobody reads it there… Regarding actual Arms Race Agency event: Does it works as designed? If i have finished the mission part 5 (kill 80 drones), it switches to part 1 again (kill 5 drones). By this, I’m able to grind the event within a few hours, get 180 points, claim my Battlecruiser, the alpha injector and my battleship I guess there should be a daily cooldown on the missions. Or is this event intended to be finished within one day? checked it with 3 chars, all with the same result o7 Carl ---

OK. Delays of litterally minutes? I have never seen it before the patch, but now encountered it several times after the patch. Still think it’s the hamsters though. ---

@Carl_Lauer, Arms Race event is working as designed, but … > [@December 2017 Arms Race Release – General Feedback](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/december-2017-arms-race-release-general-feedback/43336/43): > > The kill drones challenge probably should have a cooldown of a few hours, but I wanted to see how it affects things when we leave it off. > > We are finalizing a design to replace the reward system. The current reward system is ill-equipped to handle our veteran players’ level of commitment to EVE without seeming overwhelming to new players. That’s been known since the beginning, but I pick my battles and the live event reward system is on the horizon now. I expect some minor changes for the next event, I think the new reward system mentioned above, will take longer. ---

We are aware of an issue with the fitting window in Upwell Structures, that the stats in the fitting window will not update in some cases, if nobody is in space in the same system. This is a quite old problem, but we are working on a fix, which might reach TQ with one of the next patches. Possibly you were affected by this bug, if this happened in an Upwell structure. Note: As workaround you can switch to the outside view of the structure.
