Ships gone?

Post by johannesson77 »

Ok, im confused. I keep losing ships. Not an unusual thing i suppose, but they can dissapear while inside a station, while on a patrol (They where never fired upon) It seems that at any point if i have more then a single ship aka a fleet not under my direct control but rather under orders to patrol or move to a sector or whatever, they NEVER reach their destinations they always dissapears. Single ships seems more random though.
I got so pissed off at this crap happening all the time that i finally just installed the cheat script, at least i can get my ships back that way.
Seriously this game is so bugged that i am not sure i'll even bother continuing until at least 5-6 more patches has arrived.

:evil:

WTF? Now my Vidar is gone too, it was sitting all nice and pretty in station at Mars. Guess the GOD engine is just a bunch of crap. This game is a piece of bugs held together with some amount of actual game.

Have you checked your log wether they have been destroyed?
I have recently lost a Rapier docked at the ore mine in the asteroid belt. I went there and saw 3 pirate Novas shooting at stations...

There are many bugs in X3TC but this isn't one of them. Check the message log and it should tell you what happened to the ship.

In earlier incarnations, ships would 'disappear' if you told them to fly from A to B but they decided to fly through sectors you hadn't explored yet. They would come back once they reached known space again (assuming they didn't fly through a Xenon sector or something). I'm not sure if TC is the same, I haven't tried it yet.

Nope, just tested this is you order a ship to a sector and the route goes through an unmapped sector then this appears on your map and the ship still gets listed in the properties screen.

This is with version 1.0.1.
