¤ Patch 51200 to 53162 addresses Patch Notes for Trinity 1.2

Trinity 1.2: Patch Notes, released 15 April 2008

CRITICAL

• Junk-in-Space has been activated and will go live after Downtime on 16 April.

  In Trinity 1.1: Boost Patch we deployed the Junk in Space Cleanup Program whereby anchored containers will have a 30 day timer from the last time they were interacted with and they will then be deleted when the timer expires unless they are in proximity to a Starbase. Another part of this program is that drones, fighters, shuttles and rookie ships in space will be deleted on the first of every month and while the clock started ticking on 12 April we decided to give it a bit more time so the system will become active during downtime on 16 April.

  For more information on this feature, please read this Dev Blog.

  Bookmarks may become invalid after Junk in Space Cleanup Program is activated on Wednesday, 16 April.

  If you have any bookmarks that were created by right clicking a container in space and selecting "Bookmark location" the bookmark will point to the container ID. When the container is then deleted by the Junk in Space Cleanup Program the bookmark will point to a container which doesn't exist and therefore it becomes invalid. This also affects bookmarks that are copied and transferred between characters, when trying to move them to People & Places the action will fail silently, meaning no error message is displayed.

  You can prevent this by visiting your bookmarks before Wednesday, 16 April, and re-create them so that they don't point at containers but rather at coordinates in space (right click in space next to the container and create a bookmark).

• NPC corporations will no longer be selling shuttles

FEATURES & CHANGES

Technical

• Stackless Python has been upgraded from version 2.5.1 to version 2.5.2.

  To quote the Python 2.5.2 release announcement: "This is the second bug fix release of Python 2.5. Python 2.5 is now in bug fix-only mode; no new features are being added. According to the release notes, over 100 bugs and patches have been addressed since Python 2.5.1, many of them improving the stability of the interpreter, and improving its portability."

  For more information on Stackless Python and EVE, please read this Dev Blog.
