Thread: Ground Overt Not Temporarily Reset to Covert After Traveling in a Ship?

I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience. I've been running around on the ground as an overt Imperial for the past couple of days. Last night I needed to restock some items on the bazaar (RE level 1-6 items, you are my favorite cash cow) and used my Decimator to travel from Keren, Naboo to Theed, Naboo. When I loaded in to Theed (which took about five or six seconds) I immediately saw a red name and an overt rebel. Within fifteen seconds of loading in I was under attack, just like in the really old days before the temp-covert change was put in to prevent being ganked while loading.

Has anyone else had this experience? Did I just get unlucky and have something weird happen, or is temp-covert just not working if you travel in your ship rather than shuttling.

My understanding of the new system now is that you will go red as soon as you initiate a key-press or a mouse move. I believe it's been like that for a bit. Did you move your mouse or touch the keyboard prior to the target going red?

Now that you mention it, I was moving when I noticed the red name. I didn't even think about it, because as soon as I load I start moving if I know where I'm going. Thanks.

Edit: And you're completely correct. It was Patch 11.2 that changed this behavior. I really need to be overt more often. Kind of sad that it's February and I only now realized that something changed.
