I have been having to cntrl/alt/del to get out of game about every two or three times I sy.
Also, I dont know what happened, but point jumps and planet jumps are all kinds of screwy now.
SY planets still are not highlited in the sy screen for easy location like before. Dont know it it was intentional.

If u click to enter SY and it freezes than try to click Esc and if windov changes click play and u should be able to continue.

I have also had a problem recently, if I let the GCQL client idle for a long time it will ask me to log in again but the client just locks up and I have to close it in task manager.

same here, but happen already before the latest patches.
I need to press esc almost all the time to enter the ship selection after entering the SY and sometimes the game locks up and i need to use the taskmanager to close it.
i always send the crash-dumbs hope it helps

fighter-bombers seems to work (at least the luth ones)
TK-/Bio- bombs explode with no effect most of the time
dont know for MIRV/neutron though

There are 2 different bugs when you log in SY:
1/ The screen pauses, you must click Esc to enter selection ship screen.
2/ The game crashes, you must shut it off by Task Manger.
I had encoutered 2/ many times in BD and 1/ in R33 or Eri. Now I've been encoutering 1/ in BD and Cin, 2/ in Eri.
In the past, some players told me that having resources and logged into SY might crash the client, then I logged without rescources and it fixed the bug. But now my client still crashes even I have no resource.
Most of the time the client crash when I use Advance Drone with 2 mining beams. Unmodified AD doesn't crash the client.
Sens admit this was a misterious bug and tried to fix. We can hope. But as almost DS "mysterious bugs" take age to fixed (res cost for example), ctrl+alt+del is the only lifebuoy.
I don't think there is desync with bombs. You see the bombs explode when they reach the infs, actually they're destroyed by def bases on the planet. Ship's signature is not important, bombs' are. There was time I played as Kluth, I didn't see the ICC bomber fri who was bombing the planet, but I COULD SEE THE BOMBS IN F2. Thus, your ship is not detectable, but your bombs are in the case.
Solution: test bombing various distance to the planet 300gu, 350gu, 400gu etc... until you see your bombs work. If not, ask for more ECM. Failure to experiment, feel free to tranny rush. After all, tranny rush gives more transport pres than bombing. [ This Message was edited by: Diep Luc on 2010-07-12 05:12 ]

Hehe yeh i miss the old days to, if they just fixed that and made bombs only do like 10% damage or something that would be super awesome. Those days you had to know how to cloud and know when to turn away before the bombs splashed the planet, fun as heck. These days it orbit bomb or tranny rush and omg its boring.
