Duplicate Signature ID - Issue #233

[Pezz]

Issue 233 still not resolved.

Creating a new bug as I can't reopen the old one.

This should be fixed with tonight's patch: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=6984395#post6984395

Hey mate,

I'm not sure, just by going on what your forum post has said, that this fixes the issue.

Bug 233 was about when you have, say, ABC-123 and ABC-456 sigs in a system and there is no way to record them (nothing to do with EVE Scout really).

Am I mis-reading what you've said on the forums?

Cheers.

Still an issue

Does this happen in game, multiple sigs with the same 3 letter prefix?

As far as I'm aware every mapping software I've used assumes that this is not the case?

[Pezz]

If it wasn't a problem, why do ya reckon a bug was opened, then re-opened, then re-opened again?

[Andrew Clark]

You make a fair point. Just strikes me as quite an odd assumption for every mapping tool to make given that this can/does happen. Have you any suggestions for how you'd like a fix to work?

Full "abc-123" style sig references for all? Full references only when a duplicate is detected? Or have you something else in mind?

I'm more than happy to work on a solution for you.

[Pezz]

Just provide an option to record ABC-123 and ABC-456...

It doesn't happen that often, but when it does it screws up copy + paste which TW can't currently handle.

[Andrew Clark]

Ok leave it with me I'll take a look. Not sure of timescale, it's core functionality that needs to be modified!

I am working on this

Wow, that looks awesome.

If I may ask - what is the BM field for?

[Josh Glassmaker]

BM field is going to be the new class and type auto naming feature. Its all just concept still so thats why its just a text field. It will hopefully work by setting up a format like C{wormhole-class} - {jumps-from-home} with the ability to set that different for both directions so any EVE bookmark naming convention can be accommodated.

finally resolved
