I agree. I don’t know why this guy is talking about 4.1. All they did was release Pyro and called it “4.0 preview”. It’s nothing anywhere close to what 4.0 was supposed to be so I assume it’s still a ways away. I worry about 4.1 when I can see party markers again.

If your inventory goes blank, just go buy anything at a shop. Bit of ammo, gun, anything. That restores your inventory. As for what makes it disappear? For me I can reliably blank it by simply opening any armor sub-inventory from inside it.. ie clicking the little open box on a backpack or core etc. So of I need something that's stored in a piece of gear, I just equip it and move it over from the left side inventory screen.

I tried to claim the ships and repair the ships, but nothing comes back for them. So I either need to acquire like 7mil to get new components that are 10x more expensive than in 3.24 or just wait till 4.1 patch to reset all ships back to stock.

4.0_PREVIEW *_is_* 4.0 Live. It's live right now. I've been playing it all evening. But CIG left 3.24 Live up so that players could do Save Stanton over the holidays. That client is already in the LIVE folder so they gave it a different name so that people would (hopefully) be less confused. Once they're back in the office, that's three-and-a-half weeks to get 4.0 sorted on Live, plus any of the 4.0 features that might have been close to ready but would have delayed 4.0 past the Holidays in either a 4.0.1 or a 4.1 build. I haven't been active in Evo this year so I'm not sure how finished the bits were that got left out. If it's _just_ polish and the event, it'd be a 4.0.1, but if any of the unfinished bits cut from 4.0 are ready, it could be a 4.1.

Hopped onto a server, saw people complaining about hauling bugs, asked them where they were and stayed away from it (in case it was a server, not a shard thing). Took up a hauling contract, freight elevator and inventory wouldn't spawn the cargo for pickup. Asked global for a workaround and someone said jump servers. So I did, and weyhey, it worked! Picked up cargo, was about to collect my 100k and now discovered that on this server, the opposite is happening; I couldn't bring the elevator down to complete the contract. Tried to submit and still nothing. Great job, might get back into Elite Dangerous for now until everyone in CIG comes back from holiday and they actually fix the server.

Now I have a corpse riding around in the cargo pod on my Hornet and I have not gotten it back out due to the hassle of getting up on the top of it while parked in the hanger to access the cargo hatch...

Last Thursday we tried to play and not a single mission would complete or even progress properly. Landing and taking off was bugged more than not. Just problem after problem to the point that we were not able to accomplish a single thing we wanted except one. We did manage to get to Pyro and complete 2x jumps within Pyro before it black screened and ended our night. Yet it seems like others are having fun. How? Every issue we have is felt evenly with everyone in the group over many computers running Win10, Win11, and Linux.

4.0 Itself being in a stable state is what I look to most right now, a sentiment echoed by very many at the moment. What I'm most looking forward to though is a bit more abstract. Not so much the new features releasing, which I'm sure will be cool, but having them releasing without also causing issues with the current state of the game, eg. reintroducing old bugs back to the game or breaking other things in process, including the likes of economy, combat and gameplay balances etc. If we can start to see new features and content coming online, including the narrative missions which I'm really keen on, in a smooth, issue-less manner, I think it'll go a very long way to them being able to rightfully claim good progress to 1.0
