Getting REALLY Tired of Re-setting My Power Trays...

Sorry, I'm sure this has already been mentioned- I CAN'T be the only one being effected by this - but since the DR release there have been SO many bugs and SO many new threads, I don't have time to read through them all...

BUT, as the title suggests, I am getting SO tired of having to re-re-re-re-re-re-re-set my powers tray every time I switch maps, close for the day/session and come log back in, start a new mission, etc., that I am starting to DREAD my play time, rather than looking forward to it.

Devs, I have a stressful job - THIS is what I do to relax! But, if a GAME - my outlet and escape - is going to cause me stress, I will take my entertainment time - AND MY MONEY - elsewhere...

FIX things BEFORE you add anything new, please - we have been telling you stuff on Tribble for MONTHS - MONTHS - now, and it looks like you just released the whole package as it was!!

Do you guys even BOTHER looking at the comments we make, we "free play-testers?!" :mad:

    I spent last week debugging errors from two other programmers, only to come home Friday
    and give Cryptic steps on how to debug their program :facepalm: Yeah, <sarcasm>Thanks Cryptic</sarcasm>!

    Welcome to beta...

    I have had these issues since season 2 for god sake. Cryptic never fixes old bugs, it is those minor bugs that constantly make me leave the game for a few months.

    I have found my game play minorly disrupted by this, but Cryptic is aware, so it will be fixed.

    Cryptic only cares about making money... which is fine, in this case. Cuz I can tell them, unequivocally, that my desire to spend Zen on extra ships is directly proportional to having a *working* loadout system!

    I followed this advice and it seems to have worked:

    This also happens to people that have not used the loadouts at all, but has still corrupted there default loadout.

    Please try this temp workaround and let me know if it works. It's worked for my fleet mates and others so far.

    Step 1 - Re-setup ship the way you want, trays, boffs, etc.(Make sure to set your auto-fire prior to saving)

    Step 2 - Make sure your trays are "unlocked"

    Step 3 - Rename both/all loadout's to "Temp 1" "Temp 2" etc

    Step 4 - Save your new setup to both/all loadout's named "Temp 1" "Temp 2" etc

    Step 5 - Switch your ship and Test

    Step 6 - If successful rename and setup accordingly.
    Here are a couple pics

    Have done so for Tier-5 existing, Tier-5U and Tier-6 ships. Now all working correctly.

    Let me know if successful.

    Doesn't work for me. I have two characters that get hit with this 100% of the time. None of the others seem affected, but that workaround does nothing. I tried creating multiple loadouts even, and every time I save to one the game overwrites them all, then scrambles them all as soon as I change maps.

    And now looking at the upcoming patch notes, I see this bug still isn't getting fixed. I see nerfs all over the place, but this bug still isn't getting fixed.

    My mail system on my entire account (for all my toons) doesn't work, I've lost five ZEN BOUGHT masterkeys on mail system, mail system "void" as i'm calling it, because you send a message and it never reaches the destination, then message you sent (or another sent to you) vanishes on the air or something like. yep, to the limbo....

    My powertray after DR NEVER saves a single power i put on it, and to get things worse i post something on exchange and no one sees the item, this is not listed :D:D

    I'm about to leave the game, srlsy

    I had the same issue so do this:

    1) go into sector space and setup your ship, traits, doffs and tray

    2) remove one console and place it in your inventory, then save the load out ( you can save over an existing load out name as well)

    3) put the console back on the ship and save load out again on the same name as before

    This actually worked for me on three of my ships, where changing maps removed my assigned space doffs, some ship equipment, and some tray abilities...

    Big thanks to Karmacowboy for this work around !!!

    I tried all of the solutions mentioned. The only one that worked for me was deleting my ship and requisitioning it again. This is only recommended for ships bought at the c-store, because they are permanently accessible.

    The good news is, any mastery points that you have earned on that ship will survive the re-requisition.

    Don't forget to unequip everything before deleting! :)
