Was the periodic 3-5second "pauses" in gameplay an issue of lag spikes, or something else? Everyone seemed to have the issue. I was about to kill a miner and lagged into the rock it was mining =(

Previously it was lag issues. I did not get to play last night, but most of us who have experienced, it is due to being on the Beta server.

Um we noticed. This is NOT a code issue it is a

Just like the 'original' randomize, if the game controller 'mashes' it, it will cause problems, just like anything else you can mash, like VCs, although in this case as game controller you can be that much more annoying.

I refer you all to RoC SR #11.
That is all.

• Unable to validate Allegiance installation.
• File Allegiance.exe has an invalid signature.

Launch Alleg directly, without ASGS.
Double click the BETA executable.
Other than Wed nights, or planned larger tests, we fequently update the client, sometime a few times a day, so it doesn't make sense to add all of those signatures to ASGS. During these times we just turn off ASGS.
-Try ASGS first
-If you get an invalid signature make sure you have the latest client
-If you still get the invalid signature try it without ASGS
-If you get a message saying you need to use ASGS check the sticky for updates.

Possibly in the wrong thread but in game my autopilot keeps turning its self off and rips seem to randomly abort for no reason when I'm playing on the beta servers.

An overly sensitive mouse/joystick would explain both of those behaviors. I am 100% sure about AP, you move the joystick and it turns off auto-pilot. I think it also aborts rip cord, but I would have to double check that. I take it you are not trying to interact with the mini-map correct? Changing your waypoint will abort a teleport.
Also 'normal dead zone' and 'quadratic control response' (<esc> game options) are both saved in the registry keys and the beta and regular allegiance USE DIFFERENT keys. So if you you have changed them from the default for regular alleg you will need to make the same change for the beta. This is also true for the sound hardware accel setting.

Ahh yeah seems in beta for some reason I have to move my throtle control to 0% before I rip or engage AP, normally it doesnt matter what it's set too aslong as I don't move it when I AP/Rip.

Time to recalibrate that thing.
