I just wanted to let everyone know that Jack has been made aware that there might be an issue with the design updates not releasing and it will be looked into.

I am guessing that everyone is aware of this already, but just to make sure: You can only update a given component once every other day regardless of the number of designers you assign to that component. For that reason, I recommend that when you start a season you assign designers to the first 4 components (Chassis, Sidepods, Front Wing, and Rear Wing) and then the following day moving them to the remaining 3 components (Suspension, Underbody, and Internals). That way you are keeping the design updates at a fairly consistent pace and you aren't wasting staff who aren't working on design updates (unless you are moving staff from one department to another from day to day anyway).

As I said at the beginning though, the design update process will be examined to make sure there isn't a bug keeping peoples updates from going through.

This is still happening guys. I triple check all my design work and last night the parts were showing as releasing on the 28th - Yes, even after refreshing the page and checking it more than once multiple times.

This morning no email and they are showing as releasing on the 29th.

Bare in mind I'm a day ahead of you, so the dates are ofcourse wrong for you.

I'm sorry to sound so blunt but the bugs in the game were already frustrating me enough (EG the countless times my driver has tried to pit on the last lap when he has more than enough fuel) but if design isn't going to release I might as well just give this account up.. My league has 100% cars every season and I opt for the 70-90% every season method instead, so unless my design is right up to spec I stand absolutely no chance at keeping up.

Jason, I will find out how things are progressing. I apologise for the inconvenience this is causing you.

I've been waiting for an opportunity like this to debug it. Now the exact circumstances are on your account I'm going to be using your account for debugging purposes for a little while. I'd advise you to not use your design page until I post giving the all clear, there will be some strange behaviour on it otherwise.

Hopefully this won't take too long. Nobody else in iGP will be affected, the design page is functioning as normal for them.

It took about 2 hours of digging offline before I felt brave enough to have a crack at a fix. I'm done now, so you can use the account as normal.

This code isn't in the next update, I completely rewrote it with the design system, from the ground up. Partly because I was never able to track down why this particular bug was happening. It has been a nuisance for a long time.

EDIT: I'm going to stick at it and see if I can patch this in the interim, because it's going to be a while before we can release the new design system. I'll update the thread again if I reach a conclusion.
