Station weirdness

Station menu's been getting really frigged up lately, nothing in particular that keeps repeating itself, but just stuff like this:

What exactly is the problem? That shows a perfectly normal "Sell" screen?
Apr 12, 2004 harvestmouse link
it says "this item is not at your current location"
which is strange indeed...

station has been telling me that I have 2 sunflares under the Ammo tab, no matter what ship I select... even the bus.

I get that all the time. It's getting "Inventory" and "Sell" confused. It goes away if I dock/undock, though.

Errrr... that's a screen of IRC chat. Not a station menu.

EDIT: Nevermind. Had to scroll over to the right.

There's a similar bug where you sometimes can't sell a ship at all. Even if you dock and undock. Your ship is greyed out in the sell menu even after you've unequipped everything. It's hard to duplicate though. If someone wants to test it out, go to s18, buy a special ship, head back to your home sector, unequip everything, and try to sell that special ship at your home station.

it's just random crap. I could have sworn I saw an avalon to buy once...

You can't sell special ships in your home sector. They can only be sold in 18.

I agree...this screen is showing your "sell" items from another sector. Maybe this is something a1k0n slipped in recently...

...a1?

The specials thing is new too, or at least newer than 3.3. Maybe it means that selling ships will actually make them available? IE: If I sell a Valk in 7, anybody that wants to can come dock in 7 and there'll be 1 valk for sale...

Um, I dont usually go to 18 for valks, as I'm blue, but I do know is I can sell mauds that I bought in 18 in 6/3

I can't sell a prommie, no matter where I buy it.
/me bought prommie in 2, and tried to sell it back right after... that didn't work either

I never touch the station code anymore. Yes, it's showing you items from the wrong sector, but I have no idea why.

Most of this stuff has been changed significantly (but only internally.. the interface still looks mostly the same) for the next release, so expect completely different bugs from the ones you see now.
