New port config

Jul 18, 2006 bojansplash link
Ok, so i define primary, sec and ter triggers.
I undock and try to shoot...nothing.
I dock back and oh look, defined triggers have changed from my set layout.
I try to define them again, boring clicking all over again.
Undock, shoot, it works properly.
Does this mean we have to dock/undock 2 times before port config catches changes we made?
Old interface had teh nice confirm changes button so we knew it will work.

ok, i'll check it out.

It happens only if you go for undocking straight from triggers setting panel , if you click some other tab in station and then undock. It works fine.

Hmmm... that might have been part of what was screwing me up the other evening. Eventually Nerde Verde told me to try selecting different weapon groups by hitting 1-6. THAT fixed things.

I thought that somehow I'd bumped the wrong button to select the wrong weapon group or something. Maybe it was this bug's ugly head rearing up.

Hmm. yeah. I found the problem. it was trying to change the group config at the same time as you launched and the launch came first. You can't change group config when not in a station, so the station ignored the request.

Makes sense. Thanks Ray.

I confirm this issue. If you set the groups and then undock without leaving the screen, the firing groups revert.
