Required Information in all Technical Support Requests

Please ensure that you provide the following information for all questions posted in this Technical Support forum.
  • Version and language (e.g. 8.00 Hotfix 3, English, etc.).
  • Whether or not your game is modified using any third party scripts or mods (see note below).
  • The game start you originally selected for the game in which the problem occurred.
  • Exact nature of the problem, where and when it occurs and what you were doing at the time.
  • Any possibly relevant changes you have made to your game, system, or software before the issue occurred.
  • Where appropriate, additional symptoms, error messages, links to saves, screenshots and crash dump files (see this Wiki entry).
  • Your system specifications in the form of a DxDiag report and vulkaninfo (see this Wiki entry).
Failure to provide all this information will make it pretty much impossible for people to help you and may mean that it takes longer for your problem to be identified and hopefully solved. So please don't waste your own time and everyone else's by just posting something like "My game freezes. Help!!!".

If you are supplying information that will not conveniently fit into posts in this forum (approx 70,000 character limit per post), in the worst case you can split long text files across 2 consecutive posts, or ideally you can upload the data to a reputable public fileshare site (a few examples are Google Drive, DropBox or PasteBin, etc) but please don't use sites that spam advertising or require registration for downloads. Please use in your post the open public sharing link to your file(s) that will not require any account or registration for others to download.

Note: Support for third party modifications must be provided by the authors of those modifications, and any requests for such support should be posted in the appropriate thread in the Scripts and Modding forum.

Prospect for Commander ignoring Sector Blacklists - Save Requested

Post by Wroxxor »

Trying out the new features in v9. I don't run any mods.

I've lost several Prospecting ships when assigning them to a station using "Prospect for Commander" as they will promptly fly into Xenon space. I have set up black lists both for travel and sector activities that ban the Xenon sectors. I've verified the station settings have these blocklists set up for their subordinates. Likewise, I've verified the prospecting ships have these blacklists given to them by the commander. However, it appears these prospectors will both try to prospect Xenon Sectors and/or travel through them.

Please read the sticky thread here in this forum and provide all required information as indicated there. In your case a saved game to demonstrate the issue will be helpful for the developer.

Just a heads up that if no alternative unblocked routes are available to them to achieve their orders then ships will ignore blacklistings.
