[Hangar issues:] Ships being destroyed while they're stored?
TL;DRShips showing as destroyed while stowed came from Benoit's back-end optimization change that stopped updating ship location IDs, so ASOP showed them destroyed for a couple of days; that is resolved.
I've got to come clean first. On the ships being destroyed when stowed, that was 100% me. So that was a back-end change that we did to try to alleviate some of the load that we were seeing in some areas. And one of those side effects that was unplanned was that the location ID of ships wasn't being updated when they changed. And so the way the ASOP terminal, again, moving sands, right, does its reconciliation, which shows you what's available for you, it actually uses the location as the key element to know if a ship is actually available. Not only is it stowed, but it needs to be in the right location. Now this change that I had made for optimization did cause, for a couple of days, the issue where the locations weren't updated, and so all your ships that were stowed in other locations would show as destroyed. They were there, but they would show as destroyed in ASOP. Yeah, I'm going to take the blame for that one. That was me.
Is this like if a branch falls in a forest and nobody can hear it? The ship's not technically destroyed, but if it reports destroyed and you can't call it because it reports destroyed, isn't it destroyed even if it's not destroyed?
Well, actually, claiming it would actually destroy it, too. So technically, it's destroyed.
Right, but we resolved that one.
Yeah, that one's resolved.
