Did we do it? We actually did it. I haven’t had a whole lot of issues at all today. I’m pleasantly surprised. Nice work!

EBR-223270 Local chat is not updating properly / different number of players in local on 2 computers at the same time/ in same system.

Sorry to hone in on this but… that’s very very specific… just saying…

Normally, when you submit 100 Project Discovery submissions within a day (200 for Omega) you get locked until the next downtime. Then you can submit a new batch. Without a downtime, the daily limit only actually reset 24h after your last submission from the previous day. (A bit like the time on Daily Alpha Injector). I think this is intended that way, and previously the timer didn’t make sense.

For example, when I login in the morning (9am ET local), I could always produce new submissions, as downtime was just a few hours ago. Today when I logged in, I still has a 2hr timer left.

I hope this helps. Keep up the good work!

Thanks, I’ve added these details to the defect for the team to review.

I don’t think the drone window blinking on and off is related to no downtime. I’ve had that issue for several weeks now. I just thought it was part of the game (or at least part of playing on an old, under-specced laptop).

They are not “regular asteroid belts”, so just to be on the safe side, I’ve opened a bug report.
Mentioned in many posts, but I didn’t see the EBR being shared. Sorry for the double.

I read the detailed bug report (thanks!) and in fact this new behaviour is what was always intended. With downtime then the dungeon needs to be respawned and since we don’t store detailed information on the state of the dungeon in the database, then we must respawn it from authored data, including the ore that has been mined. With no downtime, once you have mined the ore, the dungeon is just still there waiting for you to complete it.

@Rouque_Vanderbuilt

We put an Ore Prospecting Array 4 in the IHUB and then NO NEW MINING SIDE after 2 Days… so we need DT ??? CCP pls use your brain

What is the EBR number of the bug report?

[CCP_Explorer]

@Elsebeth_Rhiannon

Faction Warfare systems that are conquered need DT to flip for good, so they are staying in a “lost” status and cannot be reconquered. Minor issue for this test but needs a solution before you can run longer without DT

Yep, we already have a few bug reports and have verified what code behaviour is causing this.

Don’t know if related, but had several e-mails not register as being read. (The unread flag stayed, even after close and reopen)

[Geo_Eclipse_Oksaras]

thats happened before, wiithout the no downtime issue…

[Hiro_Logos]

It looks like market history data for some items isn’t populated correctly for 9/9 in Jita.

I checked:

• Stasis Webifier II
• Warp Distruptor II
• 1MN Y-S8 Compact Afterburner
• 1MN Monopropellant Enduring Afterburner

Others either have the right data or don’t have any sales for 9/10 so far (I’m assuming) and it shows the date and current time instead of 00:00:00.

In Hek, Damage Control II was missing data for 9/9.

Submitting a Developer ESI application doesn’t work. I doubt this is related but figured its serious enough for a mention incase it is related. It either gives you a error 500 or returns you to the “Your Applications” page without adding them.

[Noshi_Pallaton]

I had a “stack all” command today with only about 10 items in my invintory take about 15 to 20 seconds.

I also have a lot of problems with eve portal updating skills… the app thinks it has updated but the skill queue does not change.

[Han_Zealot]

No major concerns have been noticed aside with some issues with mouse pointer in conjunction with UI clicks ( often have to click twice ), game stutters a bit and log-in screen takes a little longer than usual.

[Pallara_H_aze_MacLeod]

Every time a scandown is completed using probes, upon the item resolving a new position in the scan window it stutters significantly for me now. Not an issue with anything local from my side and is new. significant enough to be an issue when wanting to scan things down fast.

Hello, everyone,

No Downtime is going well so far. Load on the memory and internal tasklets look healthier than the first time we ran this experiment, and no game-breaking issues have been identified thus far. This is all within the expectations set for the No Downtime Vol. 2!

We want to get as much data, sexy graphs, and learnings from this experiment as possible. Therefore, we will be pushing the daily maintenance by a few hours to get some extra time beyond the 48 hours of service that was initially planned. This will be another important step to gather data that will help drive this initiative closer to the future with less frequent downtimes.

EXPECTED DT DATE & TIME: FRIDAY, 10 SEPTEMBER AT 15:00 UTC
EXPECTED DT DURATION: 20 MINUTES

From a technical standpoint, this is completely uncharted territory for EVE Online. We are genuinely excited to see how our services and in-game chat will continue to perform and this will generate some great insights. The EVE team is well caffeinated and ready to tackle anything that might crop up!

We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your patience. It is amazing that we can conduct such essential experiments on live services together with encouragement from our fantastic community.

You guys are the best o7

Sort the Faction Warfare systems not flipping and remaining in “Lost” status, please.
