Not sure if you guys at CCP are aware of this, but thought I'd bring it up anyways because it's becoming a bit annoying.
Manus Peak
- Small socket at A and medium socket at B do not pull from Gallente Research set
Fractured Road
- Sockets are not rotating, the same ones are in the same place every time
- Doesn't use any old Caldari medium/small sockets
Border Gulch
- Sockets are not rotating, the same ones are in the same place every time
- Doesn't use any old Caldari medium/small sockets
Impact Ridge
- Does not pull from old Caldari socket sets
- Does not use Gallente communications outpost either
Perhaps there's something preventing these variations from showing up, like before how the medium sockets on Spine Crescent were not rotating properly? And I know you want to keep it so it's only ever all socket types from one set, but on the new maps I don't see any reason why they can't be all sockets from a Caldari set. |

Curious on Manus Peak. However, I think the new craters map is set to only use the new Research SI set for now. I will verify this. |

Yeah it would be cool if Manus Peak could use some of the sockets from the new set. And yeah, even if the crater maps are set to only use the research set, that still doesn't explain why they don't rotate within the research set. I mean, on Border Gulch for example; B, C, and E are ALWAYS the security scan small socket and D is ALWAYS the reactor core medium socket. On Fractured Road, objective A is ALWAYS the reactor core medium socket, objective B is ALWAYS the landing pad medium socket, objective C is ALWAYS the relay station small socket, objective D is ALWAYS the satellite launch pad small socket, and then there's four small sockets housing CRUs that are also ALWAYS using the same socket. |

Ahhh. I misunderstood what your issue was then. Let me delve into this here with a few questions. Two possibilities. Intentional, not intentional. We can specify that only a specific component ever loads into a specific socket and I want to find out if this was intentional by the LD. |

May I ask why LD would do this intentionally? Isn't the point of the sockets to create a wide variety of configurations? |

Was not an LD decision. I remember before the release of the Research outpost and new terrain some talks happened about having the two new bits only using one another to "show off" the new stuff.
Edit: This was to be temporary. That's why I want to follow up on it. Find out if it is still happening, or if we have an actual rotation bug going on, or if for performance reasons, or if the LD specified something to keep it that way on his socket placement in the terrain. |

From a quick look at some recent matches we are seeing the rotations happen.
For example Manus Peak is swapping all the sockets. We think you just have had a coincidence of it loading the same small.
From my understanding the LD decided on Border Gulch and Fractured Road to keep them specific to each spot. I would have to ask him why to get you an answer on this design decision. However, he is still on vacation. |

Hm, you are getting reports of sockets from the Research Lab set on Manus Peak? Weird. |

No. We looked at the small sockets and saw they were all rotating different sockets in.

That must be some terrible luck then because I probably play this game way too much and I have never once seen one of the new small or medium sockets on Manus Peak and have asked all my friends who play and they haven't seen it either. |
