Remote control Terminal Access Bug

Won't Fix

NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT MARK AS DUPLICATE - THIS IS A REPOST OF A PREVIOUSLY FILED BUG, BUT WITH MORE INFO - Also, there is another bug that LOOKS similar, but is NOT. Thank you.

This video explains

Repro steps:

From suit:

1) Take remote control of a grid

2) Hit the terminal button

Expected result: You are shown the terminal of the grid you are controlling

Actual result: "Ship has been disconnected" message

3) Try the work-around: go to either the drop-down menu at top left or open the remote access menu. Click on the grid you are controlling

Expected result: You are shown the terminal of the grid you are controlling

Actual result: "Ship has been disconnected" message

From another grid:

1) Take a seat on another grid with an antenna

2) Take remote control of your target grid

3) Press the terminal key

Expected result: you are shown the terminal of the target grid (i.e. the one you are controlling)

Actual result: inconsistent - sometimes you see the target grid, sometimes you see the grid you are seated on, and sometimes you get "Ship has been disconnected" message

4) Try the old work-around: select the target grid from the drop-down at top left or go to the remote connection menu and click "Terminal" for the target grid

Expected result: you are shown the terminal of the target grid (i.e. the one you are controlling)

Actual result: you are shown the terminal for the grid you are seated on

Note: If, while seated, you select the terminal of any grid other than the one you are controlling, you will be shown the terminal of the grid you asked for


This has been a bug since well before the 6th Anniversary Update, but that update broke the workaround. Please fix.

Thanks,

-BC
