  • Note: The automatic response force from Empire/Faction Police against low Security Status players will still appear to be Blue even when they are spawned as aggressive to the player. This will be resolved in a later patch.
  • White indicates a neutral NPC. These NPCs will ignore you, but may retaliate if attacked.
  • Note: The automatic response force from Faction Navy against an enemy militia target will now appear white instead of the previous 'Blue' friendly color. In a later patch they will appear Red/White/Blue depending on the Factional Warfare status of the player.

  • The warning message for attacking a Peaceful entity will now appear only if the NPC is not aggressive towards you.

Science & Industry

  • Modified the job output limits for various industry jobs: Reduced the limit for copy jobs to 500 job runs (not changing anything for runs per copy); Removed the (not really enforced) limit for production jobs, which was at 10,000 runs.

Structures & Deployables

  • In preparation for the upcoming changes to Upwell Structure vulnerability (still scheduled for Q1 2018) we are adding the ability to pre-set the preferred hour and day for your structures to finish their reinforcement when attacked in the new system. While this setting will do nothing in this patch, it is important that all structure owners begin selecting reinforcement times so your structures can transition smoothly to the new system when it releases. Pre-setting or changing a structure reinforcement time may be done as often as desired with no cooldown until the deployment of the "Upwell 2.0" release later in Q1 2018. This setting can be found in the right click menu of a structure in the structure browser, and is available to corp members with the station manager role.

  • Removed the Agent Finder. Functionality will be handled by The Agency.
  • Remove the following tabs from the Journal.

  • Epic Journal. All content for Epic Arcs has moved to the expanded cards in The Agency.
  • Incursions. Everything except the loyalty point log will be handled by The Agency.
  • When jumping to a jump clone would cause the deletion of an existing clone in the pilot's current station, the pilot is now given an detailed list of that clones implants to avoid them accidentally being lost.
  • Added a character limit counter to the edit window for the "Welcome Mail" for corporations.
  • It is now possible to directly create bookmark tokens from corporation bookmarks, without having to first copy the corporation bookmark to a personal bookmark.

Defect Fixes

Gameplay:

  • Tutorial: Updated texts and UI highlights involving mini skill injector.
  • The code for loading and unloading of ammunition and charges has been rewritten in an effort to fix a several long-standing bugs (like the dreaded “lost charges when jumping while a reload was ongoing”).
  • These code changes are mostly invisible to users, but a few player-facing changes were also made as part of this rework:
  • It is no longer possible to group or ungroup weapons while the weapons are reloading.
  • Cloaking, docking, and jumping after reloading will no longer interfere with reloading (but a cloaked ship can still not start a reload).
  • After the inventory operations have completed the reloading will no longer be interrupted by anything (but other things can be blocked until the timer has finished).
  • All inventory operations connected to a reload command are now done at the beginning of reloading and the reload timer is behaving like a reactivation timer on the module.
  • Several other minor bugs and inconsistencies around loading and unloading ammunition have been fixed.
  • Fixed a bug, which could lead to loss of ammunition when grouping the weapons of an Upwell Structure.
  • Several fixes have been made to ensure that the feature of setting the home station remotely (which has a cooldown timer of one year) is properly supported for Upwell structures.
  • When modifying an existing buy order at an Upwell Structure, the additional ISK payment covering the increased tax was being paid to the SCC instead of the structure owner. It will now go to the structure owner's wallet as intended.

  • The warning you get when your clone jump will result in the loss of a clone with implants has been improved and will now list the implants in the clone.
  • Overview: When using text search to filter Types in the Overview Tab Presets, pressing Select/Deselect All will now only act upon the filtered items and nothing that's not visible.
  • To reduce notification spam, you will no longer receive a notification when a bounty is claimed, which you placed more than 6 months ago.
  • The Ship HUD now correctly shows heat buildup after ejecting from and reboarding a ship.
  • A fix has been made for a bug which caused the "Warp-to" option to be missing from Upwell structures in some cases after a session change (and other options like "Dock" did not work properly).
  • Updated the market access list tooltip to be more consistent with the other access list tooltips in format and detail.

  • Corporate Saved Locations can no longer be dragged between folders if the pilot does not have the Communications Officer role.
  • Following on from the reductions in isotope volume and moon material volume released in Lifeblood last month, several changes have been made with the intention of increasing the economic friction associated with capital ship deployments and jump freighter hauling, stimulating the ice product markets, improving the balance of ice product consumption, facilitating the easier trade of high value reacted intermediate materials for T2 production and somewhat reducing the pain that can be caused by heavy jump drive usage and high stacked jump fatigue values. The changes are as follows:
    • Jump Drives:
      • +56% fuel use by Black Ops Battleships
      • +100% fuel use by other ship-based jump drives
      • Reduction of the maximum jump fatigue cap by 20%
      • Further reduction in isotope volume by 40% (to 0.03m3)
      • +20% increase in jump freighter fuel bay volumes
    • Fuel Blocks
      • Doubling the amount of liquid ozone required to build all four block types (from 167 to 350 per batch)
      • Small tweaks to the heavy water and isotope consumption as well primarily to round off the numbers and make math easier for people (167 -> 170 water and 444 -> 450 isotopes)
      • 80% reduction in the volume of all non-alchemy T2 intermediate materials (everything other than the “unrefined” stuff)
      • T2 intermediate materials
    • T2 intermediate materials
      • 80% reduction in the volume of all non-alchemy T2 intermediate materials (everything other than the “unrefined” stuff)

  • Fixed loyalty point store tooltip placement so that it tries its best to not show off screen.
  • Fixed an issue where combat probes and core probes would give equivalent scan results despite have drastically different strengths. This issue was introduced a few months back when the scanning window was updated, and caused combat probes to be much stronger than intended. As this have now been resolved and combat scan probes have been returned to their intended strength.

Extractions can be configured and started by any person who has access to Take Control of the structure. However, only those pilots with access to control the structure, and the Station Manager role with the corporation that owns the structure, are able to cancel an extraction.
  • The distribution of mineable materials across all moons in low-sec and null-sec space (with a few exemptions for the very large moons which cannot be mined) has been reseeded using the seed nominated by the Community and voted for by EVE Vegas 2017 attendees. Further details about the changes in composition of moons and their distribution can be found in this devblog

  • Standup Hybrid Reactor I performs Hybrid Reactions (Tech 3)
Currently existing POS Reactor Arrays have been offlined (click to expand details).
  • POS Reactor Arrays no longer perform Reactions of any kind. Any reactions that were running at the time of this release have been stopped and will not be able to be restarted in a POS Reactor Array. 
  • All POS Reactor Arrays have been offlined since this release, but remain anchored.
  • POS Reactor Arrays will not be able to be onlined again. No new arrays will be able to be manufactured and no new arrays can be anchored. Any jobs to manufacture arrays that are running at the time of the release will continue to run (will not be paused or cancelled) and the arrays will be delivered to the manufacturer once the job has completed. It will not be possible to anchor or online these arrays.
  • A compensation plan will be put in place in the future to reimburse the investment capsuleers have put into this equipment.

Reactions activity now uses the standard Industry UI and is governed by a separate System Cost Index when calculating the cost of a job.

Reaction formulas can be repackaged.

Science & Industry

  • Industry: The maximum amount of industry runs has been reduced to 10,000 due to performance concerns. 
  • Industry: It is no longer possible to start or deliver an industry job, which would exceed the item limit of the output location (mostly relevant for copy jobs).
  • The volume of all Hydrogen Isotopes, Helium Isotopes, Oxygen Isotopes, and Nitrogen Isotopes have been cut in half to 0.05m3 per unit

This Concord Aerospace promotional ship will initially be distributed to players who attended both EVE Fanfest 2017 and EVE Vegas 2017. After a limited period of exclusivity it will become available through Project Discovery in the future.

Structures & Deployables

  • Unassembled ships in Upwell structure wrecks and ejected Upwell hangar containers can now be launched into space. Doing so will automatically assemble the ship.
  • Bookmarks of structures now allow warping when the structure has been unanchored. This will only affect bookmarks created after the patch. Pilots that plan to use bookmarks after unanchoring a structure should recreate their bookmarks.
  • The name of an asset safety wrap now contains the name of the character which sent the items to asset safety, if they were sent manually to asset safety (and not through structure removal).
  • Mining drones will no longer be able to deliver their ore to a ship that is tethered.
  • The sequence of Vulnerability at the time of anchoring has changed for all Upwell Structures in all regions of New Eden.
    The sequence now follows:
    Deploy in space → Vulnerable (15 minutes) → Anchoring (24 hours) → Vulnerable (15 minutes) → Online (until scheduled vulnerability set by owner)
  • A new line of Upwell Structures are now available: Refineries. These structures are the exclusive location of both Moon Mining and Reactions, and are also bonused to reprocessing activity. Further details about the Athanor (Medium Refinery), the Tatara (Large Refinery), the Moon Drill Service Module and Moon Mining rigs can be found in this dev blog.
  • All reprocessing rigs are receiving upgrades to the breadth of ores that receive their bonuses. Existing M reprocessing rigs will be consolidated into one variant that applies to all standard ores and one variant that applies to all ice. A new variant that applies to moongoo ore will also be added, reducing the total number of M reprocessing rigs from 4 to 3. Existing L reprocessing rigs will be consolidated into a single rig type that applies to all forms of ore and ice
  • Since L reprocessing rigs will now provide exactly the same benefits as XL reprocessing rigs we are reducing the cost of XL reprocessing rigs to the same level as L rigs.
  • The strength of the reprocessing bonuses provided by all reprocessing rigs will be reduced slightly (a 1% absolute reduction in the base highsec yield for both T1 and T2 rigs).
  • All reprocessing rigs (M, L and XL) will be unfitted from their current locations and placed in the Corp Deliveries hangar of the structure in which they are located. The owners of the structure will then be able to decide if they wish to keep them in their current location or move them to a new Refinery once it has been built.
  • All XL reprocessing rig items (and their corresponding blueprints) will be duplicated to compensate for the change in build requirements and value. All duplicate blueprints will hold the same levels of research as the ones currently owned. Extra rigs and blueprints owned by characters will be placed in the owner's personal Item Hangar in their home station. Extra rigs and blueprints owned by a corporation will be placed in the Corp Deliveries hangar in the corp HQ station.

User Interface:

Improvements to quantity tooltips (click to expand details)
  • Tooltips have been added to number edit fields. If the entered amount is above 10k, there will be a tooltip that writes out the amount to help you quickly realize the order of magnitude of the number (so you don’t sell your 2b module for 2m)
  • The tooltips have also been added to a few handpicked numbers, such as the total in the Sell Item window and the total in the Buy window (for single item). For example:

    45343 => ≈ 45.3 thousand
    25000 => 25.0 thousand
    9999000 => ≈ 10.0 million
    15545640000 => ≈ 15.5 billion
