[2.0.21] Changing platform destination does not update remote view planet transit arrows
Posted: Mon Dec 02, 2024 2:07 am
I have a platform in transit between two planets.What did you do?
In Remote View there's a Platforms subsection that when a platform is in transit, shows Source Planet -> Destination Planet.
I change the destination, reversing the direction of my platform.
The Remote View section did not update the Source or Destination Planet, showing the platform as still in transit to the wrong planet.What happened?
The platform travel block (speed, weight, etc) showed the updated destination and distance correctly.

I expect the Platforms section of the Remote view to show the correct destination planet. Without this change at a glance it may seem the change in destination command wasn't processed.What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
For platforms that have their destination changed mid-transit, I'm less certain what the source planet should be represented. If Nauvis->Vulcanus is interrupted and sent back to Nauvis, it's unclear to me if Nauvis should be represented as both the source and destination, as that routing isn't normally possible.
It repeats trivially for me, so I haven't attached a save file.Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
