THE BUG I MISSED IN THE NEW AUTO-LINK CODE
by Hazed
I worked really hard to find all the bugs in the new planet auto-linking code, honest I did. But sod’s law dictates I’d miss something, and sure enough, a player pointed out a few days after the code went live that although the new planets were in the game, it wasn’t actually possible to reach them – the movement from the interstellar link to the new orbit hadn’t been added to the space map! Thanks to Munabilo for telling us about the bug.
I can’t believe it never occurred to me to check that you could actually get to the planets. What a failure.
Alan will be fixing this bug, and putting replacement space maps in for all my army of alts so you can reach their second planets, in the next week.
Meanwhile, I wonder what else I missed…
