  Skills:

  • Introduced two new skills: Triglavian Encryption Methods and Triglavian Quantum Engineering which will be required for invention and manufacturing of Tech II Triglavian Ships.

  War Declarations:

  • The next stage of the War Declarations revamp has been released, including the introduction of War Headquarters structures, War cost simplification, improved mutual wars, and war UI improvements.
  • More information about these changes and where they fit into the wider design for war declarations in EVE can be found in this dev blog.
  • War Headquarters:
    • In order to declare an aggressive war, the attacking side must now designate a specific Upwell Structure that they own somewhere in highsec space as the "War Headquarters" for that war. If the War Headquarters structure is destroyed, removed from space, or removed from the control of the attacking organization for any reason the war will enter its 24 hour cooldown and then end. If a war ends due to the removal of the War HQ, the former attacking organization will be unable to declare new wars against the former defending organization for two weeks.
    • The identity of the War HQ structure is included in war notifications for the defender, as well as being visible to all interested parties through the war report window.
    • Wars that are active during the Invasion expansion downtime will continue without needing a headquarters structure during a transition period that is scheduled to end at downtime on July 25th. If a war is active without a War HQ at the end of the transition period it will enter its 24 hour cooldown at that point and end the next day.
  • War Cost Simplification:
    • The cost of aggressive war bills has been set at a flat fee of 100 million isk per week.
  • Mutual Wars:
    • Mutual wars have been revamped to improve quality of life for participating organizations
    • Aggressive wars can no longer be converted into mutual wars. Instead, mutual wars may be started through an invite/acceptance process.
    • Mutual wars may now be started without any isk cost or structure requirements
    • Either side of a mutual war may now decide to end the war at will, triggering the standard 24 hour cooldown before shooting stops
  • Corporations that are allies of the defending side in an ongoing war can no longer join an alliance until the war ends or their ally contract finishes, unless the alliance they are attempting to join is also the only defender they are allied with.

  User Interface:

  • Added the Board My Corvette button; Corvettes will no longer be made available automatically on docking in a pod, instead the player can choose to be placed inside a corvette using this button. If the character does not currently have a corvette then they will be provided one and then boarded into it. If a corvette is already in the ship hangar the character will board it and the standard modules fitted will be repaired.
  • The styling for the Undock, View Outside and Take Control buttons have been updated.
  • Updated Redeem Queue Notifications so that they now appear in the Neocom and not in the notification widget.
  • Hangars are now visible below the station services by default.
  • Remodeled the Agency!
    • New cleaner and more functional UI, using the Progressive Disclosure approach to funnel the user to their desired content.
    • Bookmarking pages is now possible, allowing you to skip the funnel and get straight to your most used pages.
    • Agent Finder is back!
    • Filters are now more visible and easy to use.
    • Filters will now remember their last settings for each page.
    • Reset all filters button is available.
    • Search for specific planet types in the Planetary Production Agency page to establish your colony on, and if they are within range of your Remote Sensing skill, see their available resources without opening the PP window of each planet.
    • The amount of Anomalies and Signatures in a K-Space system is now visible from anywhere.
    • Combat Anomalies, Ore Anomalies, and Ice Belts show the exact type of site from within 1 jump away. At 2 jumps or further, only the existence of the site is shown.
    • Storyline Missions and Escalations will guide the player to their respective pages by displaying the NEW! label.
    • Contested level of Factional Warfare system and available FW complexes are now visible from anywhere in EVE.
    • Incursion locations and incursions types (Scout/Vanguard/Assault/HQ) now shown in the Agency.
    • Amount of accumulated CONCORD LP from completing Incursion sites is now shown in the Agency.
    • Sites shown in the Agency now have the same contextual menu when right clicked as they do when right clicked in space, so you can now fleet warp to a site for example.
    • Tooltips explaining the various features of EVE are present throughout the Agency to teach players about the mechanics of each.
    • Triglavian Invasions are available through the Agency.
  • In-client CSAT (Customer Satisfaction Survey) in system menu
  • The new Help Pointer feature has been added and is available in the Utilities folder of the Neocom.
    • This feature allows players to share links to different UI elements that will highlight that UI element with a label and arrow when clicked. It is expected to be especially valuable for veteran player mentoring their new friends.
    • More information about the Help Pointer feature can be found in this dev blog.
  • War UI Improvements:
    • New “War Info” tab in the Wars tab of the corporation window, which explains the war declaration system and shows you the war status of your corporation at a glance
    • The "Kill Reports" tab for a corporation has been moved from the "Wars" tab to the "Home" tab of the corporation window.
    • New “War History” tab in the corporation window under the Wars tab, which displays previous wars and currently enforced peace periods due to surrenders and War HQ removal.
    • New “Mutual War Invites” tab in the corporation window under the Wars tab, visible to corporation directors and CEO which show all the current incoming or outgoing mutual war invites. Here directors and CEOs can also find a toggle to block incoming mutual war invites if they wish
    • Improved the war history section in the show info window for corporations and alliances
    • Updated and improved the war report, including information about the identity of the War HQ
    • Added a “Wars” tab to the show info window of Upwell structures if they are a War HQ
    • Added an icon + tooltip to structure entries in the structure browser if they are a War HQ
    • Added an icon to the character selection screen that clearly displays when your characters are involved in an active war
    • Added an icon to the top section of the character sheet that clearly displays when your characters are involved in an active war

  Defect Fixes:

  Gameplay:

  • Fixed another edge case of wormholes not expiring correctly.

  PvE:

  • Fixed an issue where a mission site completed right before downtime would fail to persist the completed state with an agent when the server came back up.

  Patch Notes For March 2019 Release

  Released On Tuesday, March 12th 2019

  Features & Changes

  Audio:

  • When encountering the different pirate factions around New Eden, capsuleers will be able to hear distinctly different communications chatter based on which pirate faction they come in contact with.

  Missions & NPCs:

  • Level 4 and 5 Agent missions are now only accessible for Omega Accounts

  PvE:

  • Adjustments have been made to the respawn rates of certain nullsec anomalies. These adjustments are part of a gradual ongoing process that will see further tweaks for this type of content.

  Skills:

  • Added the ability to purchase all core skills directly from the character sheet for a 30% markup on seeded prices.

  - User Interface:

  • The tooltip of a repairing module in the ship hud will now have a count-down, showing how long until the module is fully repaired.

  Defect Fixes:

  Gameplay:

  • To prevent exploits surrounding wars, it is no longer possible for a defending corporation to join an alliance that has an offensive war against their aggressor.
  • During any war cool-down period either side of the old war can choose to declare a new war instantly if both sides are war eligible. Any new war started during the cool-down of an old war involving the same parties will immediately end the old war early and start the new war with fighting enabled (no 24 hour spool-up). This new war is still subject to the same billing and eligibility requirements of any normal war.
  • Fixed several problems with the expiry of wormholes, especially for null-sec wormholes. This should fix the problem of wormholes collapsing when trying to jump through.
  • Corrected the meta group attribute of several T2 and T3 items so that they will display correctly in the compare tool
  • Fixed a problem with reloading partially loaded modules, where only one stack of charges was being used.
  • Fitting: Fixed a problem with the "Fit Ship" option, where it did not warn properly if not sufficient ammunition could be found. It will now also restock the correct amount of mission ammunition.
  • Fixed an issue causing Webifying Drones to all have the same signature radius

  Graphics & Audio:

  • Fixed Deimos mirrored faction logo.
  • Fixed an issue whereby certain VFX sounds where being muted as soon as they started playing in systems with many deployed structures.
  • Changed the location of a blinking light on the Cynabal which was placed on the same spot as a turret hardpoint.
  • Fixed the logo displayed on the Nyx with the Police SKIN applied to it.
  • Enabled a warping animation on the Astero.
  • Fixed blurriness of booster trails when flying especially fast ships while having speed boosting implants.
  • Fixed bug that caused explosion sounds to play when warping away from a decayed angel mass grave and minimizing the client.
  • Fixed inverted logo on Tatara structure.
  • Fixed clipping on the Women's Republic Fleet Ordnance Jacket.
  • Fixed clipping of the Men's 'Lockstep' Boots through the Men's 'Commando' Pants.

  Technical:

  • Fixed an issue in the physics engine with collision handling that could lead to ship position/velocity becoming desynchronised between server and clients.

  Structures & Deployables:

  • Improved a misleading error message when trying to take control of a FLEX structure, which is already controlled by someone else.
  • Fixed a problem with right-click options for Upwell Structures.
  • Fixed a problem with contract creation, where an "Slow Down" message was displayed, if you had items in very many Upwell Structures.
  • Bounties from NPCs, which are killed by Upwell structures, are now being paid out to the controller of the structure.
  • Fixed a problem where cloaking ships were sometimes not fully removed from observing clients, if they were observing space from viewing outside from an Upwell structure. This could also lead to desync.
  • Fixed a problem where the docking availability icon on an Upwell structure would switch to denied, after trying to dock with a too large ship (as the ship size should not be part of this).

  Text & Descriptions:

  • Several minor text issues have been corrected.
  • The error message received when the network connection between client and server ("socket closed") has been updated to provide more useful information.
  • The evemail notification sent to corporation members on the deletion of a character that is a member of their corporation has been changed.
  • User Interface:
  • Fixed a problem in the market, which excluded items from being shown when using "Show only available" with a "Region" range filter, if they were only being sold in Upwell structures.
  • Disabled the non-functional option to "Read News" on billboards.
  • Fitting simulation: It is now possible to filter the hardware browser by subsystems for T3 cruisers - in combination with the filter for rigs.
  • Fixed a problem that overview settings were not saved properly while being docked.
  • The tooltip for a module shows now the correct damage state, while it is being repaired.
  • Fixed minor issues with the alignment and text style of the object name in the radial menu.
  • Fixed a problem with the show info window, where it was not possible to open the preview window of a ship, if a character with positive or negative standing was viewed before in the show info window.
  • The color of links is now affected by the color blind mode.
  • Fixed a problem which prevented the guests list in a station or Upwell structure to be updated properly, while a filter was active.
  • Fixed a problem, where the corporation show info window was not updated properly after leaving an alliance.
