Just got this by going to scanners, dunno if your messin with those or not but here it is:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /var/www/violetsector.com/includes/functions_scans.php on line 65

looks like it's fixed now. That was quick.

I was a cloaker and was killed while cloaked. I picked my new ship and was still cloaked.

Darthbrooks is in ATT and died in T333, but he is also in rankings as a level 5. Leveling up to level 5 in just 12 ticks is a little too amazing to be true ;-)

I brought him back to life as I think I may have killed him by accident experimenting with HW explosions....can't be certain but it was tick 333 I was testing. Sorry DB!

Trailing whitespace needs to be dealt with properly

What do you mean by trailing whitespace?

Possible bug: after taking all my pickups, of which the last 5 were:
Tick 402 Pickup (None)
Tick 402 Pickup (Triple attack)
Tick 402 Pickup (None)
Tick 402 Pickup (Free attack)
Tick 402 Pickup (300 points)
I went to enemy scans page after a while, and then i got the message that my attack had expired (not sure if it was the free or the triple).
This could be a bug where one is able to shoot after all pickups are already used

Mysql thinks "username" == "username " if it's a char or varchar field. I'm not sure why it's like that but it's documented so it's a feature rather than an SQL bug. Re your pickup, you can now use a free when you have 0 moves so it displays that error message. I could probably stop it from showing if it's a triple and you have 0 moves.

As long as it doesn't give away stuff that shouldn't be given, it's fine. I'm not that bothered about the message, just about the potential consequences ;-)

From what i heard, LC scans work for every sector, even if you don't have ships there

Thanks IB. Going to keep this as feature for the time being so people have more opportunity to test scans.
