CV destroyed while building

Post by volkov555 »

So throughout the sectors I have a few half finished "building sites" where my construction vessel didn't manage to survive. Can I destroy them? Or can I remove them from the save file.. or even finish them?

Any help would be appreciated.

Is the building symbol still there?

If so then I would wager that you can send another CV to replace the one you lost.

The icon to build stuff is gone. Theres just an unfinished and unusable station sitting there with no health bar or anything, it's just called a "building site". If I could remove it, at least I could reuse the spot.

It happens to me also. I took a mission (the Cartel boss) the Balor ship destroyed the CV
One more thing I replaced the architect from the CV and the new one forgot everything (stage 1 completed) and started everything from scratch, but the station is build-ed anyway

arg. If I were better at understanding the save file I would just delete the dumb things so I could start over. They're really messing with my plans for my sectors.

I have one that actually got built but then it's CV got destroyed and it is stuck as a stage 1 spice farm.

One that must have been 99% when the CV got wasted, because the lights are on for the landing areas but I can't land at them and the station still reads as a build site.

And another one where my CV is still alive, but it flew to another sector and then kept flying for another 1200 km before stopping deep in empty space and none of my traders can make it there (they stop after 300 km).

I'd love to delete all three.

So the 3 blue squares symbol doesn't reappear?
That's not good.

Can you zip a savefile of this problem and send it as an attached file to info@egosoft.com ?

Sure this will benefit everyone if you can send this bug to be looked at, so nobody has to suffer this like you have. :(
