[Bug: Ship] Titurel is missing Drone Bays??

Post by SyberSmoke »

So I was out and about and found a Titurel, I captured it, got it fixed up and then repaired it at the shipyard. I have since started to use it for trading and I noticed something, it appears to be missing a Cargo Drone bay like other freighters have.

The ships behaviour is odd, instead of pulling up next to a port to trade and then trading drones. It will instead match its axis of motion with the trade port and sit right on top of the port with the nose pointing away forming a T with the station structure.

I would assume this is improper behavior for the ship and it should have a place for Cargo URV's to enter and exit (Bay Door may be?).

Update: This behaviour means the Titurel can only do trades while the player is OOS. Trades can not be conducted any other way with this ship.

Luck I guess. It had the parts (I checked) and there was no ship in there. So I queued it up and low unto him that is he it worked. What I find odd is that the DeVrise economy is none existent, and yet my shipyard is cranking out Arahans like mad. Where the heck are the parts coming from?

I just caped one as well, and I am unable to get it to trade at all even though it has 30 cargo drones? It's a shame to as this is a really nicely armed transport boat. I'd sure love to put it to work :)

As I said, you have you do all trades OOS or "out of sector". It should do trades as long as your not in the area. But in some instances you will get it to say it is commencing a trade...but it will not finish until you enter the area it is in.

It is an excellent ship...it just needs some fixing...

That is because drones have bad pathing. They cant go back to ship that's why you cant complete trade.

There is no path really...the point where the drones are spawned overlaps the point where hey go since the ship is clipping into the station so the spawn points touch.

Thing is...it does not look like drones are even affected by collision meshes...at least not from what I have seen.

I was just looking at my Fedhelm doing trade I had 14 cargo drones... 3 drones lost their path and they wore bouncing around Fedhelm for almost 5 min . They could not find path back. My ship was empty but trade was not finished. When I left zone trade was finished automatically.(Autodock or something is activated for drones when leaving zone) My point if all drones don't come back to ship after trading, trading will not be finished.

Holy necro, Batman!

I think the Titurels are fine now. The only issue with them I am aware of in the current Rebirth release (3.61 HF2) is that they are slower than their stated max speed of 70 m/s. In the existing beta, that appears fixed as the new stated speed is 51 m/s.

In your case, there is a reasonably chance that the drone bay was destroyed during or after boarding. Until the ship's Engineer fixes a destroyed drone bay, it is not possible to equip new drones to the ship.

Please don't dig up 2 year old Tech Support threads. Many, many things have changed in the intervening time and it's highly unlikely that any problem you are running into now is related to some issue reported back then.
