Eve online : T2 icon glitch, Apocrypha v1.5

Odd Yellow triangle icon glitch, for the T2 symbol. If you notice while looking at the variations of a module the T2 icon jumps around, away from being on top of its correct module.

the music is pretty nice indeed,

for the bug, its theoretically imposable;

All t2/t3 icons are placed in a window with one single function, so in theory if one fails, they all should fail... so its kinda weird this happens with only one item.

Kaiidyn, If the icon was a single picture than I'd agree with you.

What appears to happen is the standard icon is placed, and than the T2 icon is added afterwards on top of the original using odd code to posistion it over the original icon.

[Kaiidyn]

Yes, but that odd code is just one single piece of code that is being used to add all t2 icons on top of a item icon,

for example, the game reads the items list from the database, and in the record it says its a t2 icon, the client has 1 function to add that t2 icon on top of the other icon automatically.

if(item_tech == 2){ call function add_t2_icon; }

in the function add_t2_icon all the code is what actually adds the t2 icon on top of the item icon.

at least thats how i would do it. =p

Kaiidyn,

Yup. It just seems odd how it tries to keep the T2 icon in position.

I wonder what the fix will look like? Hopefully it'll just appear to be 1 icon in the future... even though we know it will actually be 2 icons layered.

Love the creepy music of EVE!!

[rfry]

Hmmm, I never really thought of it as creepy.

EVE is such a complicated game, every time they fix something, they end up breaking something else.

the bugs are often times very minor though, and not a big deal. I haven't paid real money to play in over a year, so it's hard to complain.

[Kaiidyn]

I personally use GD library a lot in PHP, it is usable in c++ as well (i think) so using GD they could merge both images as one actual image, instead of 2 hovering above each other (and thus failing).

[GunGuy0]

Well at least we can both agree it is an excellent music selection for that game

i second that
