Main Navigation Map Bugs

[mordechai]

On the Main Navigation Map, in the status bar on top, the destination shown is incorrect. It gives a possible last point (not necessarily the last point the autopilot will use) just before the destination. For example, if I'm at Syndicate Core [-8,6] and I'm going to Cadar Prime [-7,1], the status bar says "...[-8,6] | NE to [-8,0] 6AU".

Also, the distance seem inconsistent. With the same starting point as above, destinations Baza Prime [-4,3] and Durok [-1,2] give distances of 4AU and 6AU, respectively. This error appears to be due to rounding.

And third, when going to [-1,2] (again, same starting point), the status bar listed [-2,1] but the autopilot used [-2,2].

BTW, unlike the examples cited above, the example on the wiki isn't even close to accurate.

OK thanks for the report. Not a commonly reported issue, but I will add it to the list. Thanks!

As for the Wiki reference, a link would be much appreciated. If you are going to declare a citation is inaccurate, please include the citation =)

Yah that's pretty darn broken. I wonder when that happened =(

LOL ... I didn't even notice that the displayed coordinates (6,-5) and (11,3) didn't match reality. That's what you get from a screenshot taken at 2:05am. From the look/feel, this would have been done a looooooong while ago ... like the year 2010 long ago. The home screen screenshot matches this as well

Since the screenshots were taken, the game has moved in leaps and bounds in terms of not only user experience, but UI as well. There are so many features that have been added to the game that are not reflected in Wiki screenshots.

Solution - I vote for panic and mayhem. That's just me though. Cory'll probably suggest a more pragmatic approach (Just take new screenshots).
