==================== Type: FLHook? Bug: When you try to send some messages, sometimes they won't parse properly and nothing is sent. ====================
Reproduction Steps:
You try to send a message ingame.
Sometimes nothing is sent, the message isn't shown, I've heard it can also happen with docking messages.
I'm pretty sure this is a known issue, however, there's one thing I've noticed about it. Sending messages "in between quotes" somehow seems to circumvent the issue, the message is parsed properly and sent. Is this a FLHook issue? Maybe related to the OOC tag that has been implemented?

It is a known issues, yes. It is unfortunately not the OOC change, as we have already turned that off for testing purposes and it has not resolved the problem or reduced the frequency of it occurring. We're looking into it, and that "quote" thing might be a lead.

We (Aingar, Laz, me and Wildkins) found that mining with a valid loadout broke all chat until someone mined with an invalid loadout. This was due to a failure to reset a returncode variable inside the mining control plugin's chat hook (which is used to parse commands). Fixed.
