Confirmed task for development, TrivialPublic

Description

  1. dock ship to station
  1. get into station's build block
  1. leave build block
  1. attempt to f8 your way into the docked ship

the game will not allow you to do so, with the error "Exit structure before using this!"

work around - manually get into any other ship (i.e, a core) first

Jumping from Ship to Ship causes unpredictable effects like

  • being in both as pilot
  • unclear from where to exit
  • being able to fly more than one ship at a time

Tester information (Internal use only)

Partially fixed: you can now use Tab + F8 again to enter a ship after exiting a station build block.

F1 + F8 on a station though gives the same behavior.
If it is possible that you'll end up in a build block that way, great, otherwise disabling F1 + F8 when a station is selected is fine for me too. (Please leave a comment which of the 2 you did).

Changed to F1+F8 from Tab + F8

Side effect of T160 fix

it doesnt recognize the leaving of the build block of a station somehow
also happens if you only enter and exit a build block on a station and then try to Tab+F8 somewhere, the docked entity isnt the cause.
but using the the Tab+F8 from a entity docked to a station to get into another ship causes irritating effects
(view from wrong position, docked entity core still occupied even after being back in astronaut mode)

stupid admin/debug options

I have found this bug on not only the docked ships but all ships.

AndyP added a comment.Aug 3 2015, 8:45 PM

the source if the player not being unregistered from a station, so exiting a station does not clear the flag: you are in some entitiy, and cannot switch to another one.

AndyP merged a task: T601: tab+F8 broken with stations.
AndyP added subscribers: Oninoni, 33Cav.

Adding information from T601:

when having a station selected and pressing tab+F8 as an admin in order to enter said station, unintended things happen:

If you did not enter any ship or buildblock yet: you are teleported to your current location, indicated by a sudden flash of the screen
If you were in a shipcore before: you enter the ship you were last in. If said ship does not exist anymore but you are still within its last bounding boxes, you are aligned to the nonexistant ship.
If you were in a station before: you recieve a popup message telling you to exit the structure you are currently in before entering another structure.
