Since the patch today August 21st, I have not been able to switch ships by right clicking “board ship from bay”. I have to “store ship” then “launch ship”, then board ship from space. Tried on multiple characters, different corps, re-making fleet, logging out and back in, re-setting permissions on the orca/carrier, and making sure I had nothing targeted, in cargo hold, or drones out.

Is this as intended? I could not find anything related to this in the patch notes for the last few patches.

> The right-click option to board a ship from a ship maintenance bay is unfortunately currently missing. As workaround you can launch the ship and board it then from space, but be aware that this is less safe if any other players are around. A fix for this is already in the pipeline.
