intel data missing timestamps
Hi,
what is the reason for dropping information from the entity datagram 24h before an anomaly?
timestamps of links, fields and portals are missing from the getEntities api call
Is it intentional or a bug?
And would it at least be possible to return that value for the duration of the anomaly?

(I know that NIA usually does not reply, but still it is worth telling them at least that we do not like such changes less than 14h before an anomaly if it was intended)
Re: "Claim 1 Kinetic Capsule Program" is a horrible bounty
Personally, I like the kinetic capsule bounty because it is the only one that requires a real effort, or decision-making (if I claim the KC today, I may miss out on the bounty tomorrow).
If you are lucky enough to live in a city with good public transport (and want to spend the money), you can also complete your KC on a tram or bus ride, without walking.
AFAIK, the mission bounty was not retired because it was deemed too difficult, but because of agents who strongly prefer six-mission "banners" to single missions.
Second Sunday March 2024
On this the 3rd Second Sunday of 2024 the timings aligned with UK Mothers Day making it easy for some agents to explore and do banners while making it more of a challenge for others. Agents in the Second Sunday TG group shared their experiences of places visited, missions completed and food consumed.
43 members of the group (23 RES, 20 ENL) also uploaded stats to the optional competition bot, walking 437km (256 RES 181 ENL) earning 13.5 million AP (RES 9M ENL 4.5M) and recharging 29.4 million XM (12.4m RES and 17m ENL).
As Second Sunday is about getting out, doing missions and discovering new places we had an amazing 408 missions completed (244 RES 164 ENL), 1,453 Unique portals captured (974 RES 479 ENL) and as Machina is a good indicator of places with little play, agents neutralised 963 machina portals (806 RES 157 ENL), destroyed 7,896 machina resonators (6,627 RES 1,269ENL) and reclaimed 779 portals (621 RES 158 ENL).

🍰🥤Food and Drink Consumed:
There was a lot of coffee, chocolate, cake and beer consumed to fuel the agents this month, with a good sprinkling of mothers day entries.
Noteworthy entries were:
🥇Top prizes for most interesting food stuffs:
Karlosici - 1 meatloaf in a bun
Penumbruh - 2 pastelitos
MonsterFishtank - 1 spicy chai latte and 1 leek and bacon scone.
✏️Concerns and Comments:
Poor kupuguy, submitted one lone malteser, buy that agent a whole packet next time!!
Wendex went the whole hog with a full roast and plenty to wash it down, someone was enjoying themselves and we hope that this was consumed post bannering as that lot would induce a nice afternoon nap for me.
bluesfemme had a Frozen raspberry coke which sounds refreshing after a long trek!
SpannerDaniel - 1 mother's day box of chocolates purchased for my mum. - We are concerned that your Mum didn't get her chocolates, if she didn’t you must do better next year!
rleonel consumed 1331 smurf tears! - Now now XFAC etiquette, maybe it was the 69 Coffees and 420 Chocolates that led you to this xfac faux pas.
We hope to see all the regulars again and hopefully some new faces in April for the 4th 2024 Second Sunday event.

Sometimes cannot remote-view any portal
Scanner version: 2.136.1-a69494a4
Device: Samsung S10e Android 12 (One UI 4.1)
I'm getting a bit frustrated with how often I have to restart the scanner. In the morning it needs restarting because the daily bounties don't refresh. In the afternoon it's because I drone-hacked a Portal and there's a permanent results screen splatted across the map. And in the evening it's because I cannot remote-view any portal.
This includes:
- going to the key carousel and tapping on the key pic to view the portal
- going to the key carousel and tapping the Charge button (which goes to remote view before you can charge it)
- tapping on any portal pic from Alerts to view the portal
- trying to view the drone
Symptoms are that it starts going to the remote view; some of the links and fields load, and maybe even some of the portals, but the portal you are trying to view never loads and it just sits there with the spinning triangle logo.
Restart scanner and it magically works again.
Re: "Claim 1 Kinetic Capsule Program" is a horrible bounty
First it was missions was too hard, now k caps? You know that whole glyph thing takes to long. How about we just get bounties for opening the app?
