Powerplay update 1.3.08 is incoming. The servers will be down at 10.30 BST this morning and will be offline for around 30 minutes. This update has the following changes:
Fix crash trying to update a drones location post physics when attached to a target ship which has no longer got any attach points
Fix crash on drones when changing authority fails
Fixed issue with mission cargo generation not storing the starport type on its destinations. Was allowing players to accept delivery missions to outposts with large ships
Avoid deadlock when a machine (re)connects and the machine also has a pending routing query (from a different machine)
Request routing data from the server as soon as we receive a sync letter from an unknown machine - may fix some connection issues
Fix for merging islands in supercruise
Fix for
LAN connection issues (after conencting over lan, if both players had upnp enabled, it was switching back to wan connection)
Allow recognition of a
LAN-connected machine, in cases where Turn had failed to initialise
Add a new appconfig option, RouterPort, to tell the game that a port has been explicitly mapped on the router (another config setting affecting upnp has also been renamed to avoid ambiguity)
Various telemetry fixes
Make sure a machine is released from the server if they have disconnected
Improved invalidation of client-side caching of Powerplay cycle changes
Low level thread affinities change - possible fix for some stuttering seen on some machines
