Version 21.02 - Known Issues

Starting from simple one. Show special brackets (like moons in space) settings are not saved after relog.

But there is more serious problem than brackets.
Photon UI is showing misleading informations and/or misrepresenting available commands (like warp or activate).
Look at screenshots below:

Both pictures show identical situation (landing on militia plex).
When coming out of warp in Photon UI you can see available commands in selected item window that should be grayed out.
This is also happening when you eject pod from destroyed ship and you try to save capsule by preselecting celestial to warp to.
Warp or activate are ignored by UI but showed as available.
Old UI had no problem with this and also radial menu works fine.

I lost capsule to this bug and standard answer from GM was “our logs show nothing” unironically this is correct because UI is not registering any commands at that shor period of time (finalizing warp or ejecting capsule).

I raised ticket over week ago and had no serious answer, only automated message to clear cache.
I tested this on Sisi and TQ before todays update and after.
And yes cache was cleared.

So if you lost ship or pod while using new UI and you damn sure you’ve click that warp button open petition to ccp for reimbursement. I know its wall of text but it’s not easy to explain and now even to compare as they force Photon UI to everyone.

EDIT: example on video Photon UI bug - YouTube
EDIT 2: after last patch all works as it should but in patch notes they only mentioned docking
“The Radial menu dock function no longer appears to be available while in warp.”
