[BUG] Sharing Map Feature - No querying for corporations name from game for map sharing

Open dnolen opened this issue 7 years ago • 6 comments

Issue: Currently attempted to share out a map with blue pilots. Attempted to look up corp in shared settings as per advised documentation.

When searching by name the corporation cannot be found when attempting to search by atleast 3 characters

When removing the original shared owner and attempting to re-add it back into the field this will also no longer query.

Currently the only way to share a map is to have someone login to pathfinder on a set up the available share option is to do the following:

  1. Have outside corp member login and create a private map on the server
  2. Have user set this new map as a corporation map
  3. Have new map set up with the now available corp name due to map sharing

Concerns with this:

  1. Map should be accessible to shared to any corp in game and/or be able to be searched
  2. Any user that has access to the shared map can just delete it with not authorization required
  3. Corporation names are not queryible to be added with out having their own corporate map already set up

If a shared map is being used perhaps we can set write permissions to only the team sharing the map, not just global modification

Noticed this bugs is still around and can't share map to other corps.

Same. I cannot share maps between corporations. I have a pathfinder configured with 2 corps access only (via pathfinder.ini) but am unable to share maps between corps. Members of both corporations are able to log in, create maps, and share maps amongst corp members, but the inter-corporation sharing still appears broken.

@ppfeufer Thanks, this solved my problem. Although the flow seems fairly convoluted.

As a feature enhancement, I would suggest including a link to the sharing maps manual page on the map share settings dialog.
