Officials Promise to End Glitches with Spaceship AI: Capsuleers Everywhere Rejoice

In recent times, the ban from staying inside a ship while in hangar has been lifted, much to the rejoice of capsuleers everywhere.

I never did understand it,” an anonymous pilot commented. 

“Whenever I'd dock in station, ANY station, they always had these security guys who would pound on the hatch and demand I get out of the ship. I still remember the first time it happened. I had thought of refusing, but apparently the last guy who tried to do that at this particular station was smoked up by the sec guys unleashing a bunch of furriers in his ship. Anyways, I get off the ship, and they lead me to a room they called a 'captain's quarters' and thought that sounded nice. Nope! It was some Minmatar's drug hideout or something. There was all this gross crap on the walls and the floors, and half eaten food everywhere. The room only had, like, one couch and a bed, and the couch was sticky. Naturally, I'm like, screw this! So I tell the station officials that I won't be staying in this room, and you know what they do? They kick me out of the room, and make me stare at a f**king door to this supply closet in the hallway. It was like this at EVERY station, and I'm convinced they only make pilots take the rooms to try and pay-off those nice TVs they got in there. But man, that door beat that Minmatar dump by a MILE!”

The allowance of pilots to remain inside their ships while in hangar was been seen as a relief by many. However, due to spaceships suddenly linking to a station through a pilot for the first time in months, there have been many software glitches in the AI of several types of craft.

I go to undock, and all of a sudden my object detection overview just flies somewhere random of the interface, and when I go to dock the uplink to the station services just appears somewhere,” were the aggravated words of a disgruntled Basilisk pilot. 

“It's an absolute nightmare when you're running a logistics ship setup like I am.”

In light of many reports of strange occurrences similar to these, Interbus has announced plans for a fix in stations across New Eden, which should be completed within a few days if all goes according to schedule.
