AI Frozen

Xenon and Khaak simply do not move or enage me. I can fly up to them and destroy them.... mean while I have 2 orders at Argon Prime Wharf and nothing is happening.... they have all their materials and yet 3 hours later nothing is built. Great game

Did your game crash during save? If yes your save is corrupted and you have to go back to another one or start new game if you only used quicksave. DEV confirmed to me that this is not recoverable.

Come to think of it the Khaak didnt attack me when I was attacking. I havent crashed during a save. The only option is to restart?????? Ive got 10 hours into this save.

[Raevyan]

Are other ships moving? Like Argon/Teladi/Paranid? BurnIt confirmed to me on a stream chat that my save was corrupted and i have to go back to another one... ofc i only used Quicksave...that was about 15h into the game.

On my new game I did notice a lot more stations though.

[Studders]

I will go have a look in a hostile sector now and see what's going on. Even pirates don't attack me though and when I engage them they don't fight back.

[Studders]

So I just flew into a Xenon sector, right up to one of their stations and nothing is attacking me. Started shooting the drones and still nothing. Whats going on???

[flightschooldropout]

Yeah friendly npc's float around but enemies are frozen. Whats going on? major game breaking bugs from egosoft on launch once again....

[Studders]

Always hated the term game breaking becuase it feels over the top and dramatic but I genuinely feel like your're right. If enemies aren't attacking me now then what if I spent hours to build a fleet for it to have nothing to fight...and if I restart, how do I know if enemies suddenly decide not to attack me? Just hoping this gets fixed fast, along with the behaviours for ships.

[flightschooldropout]

Apologies on the dramatics.... I'm just frustrated.... man o man do I want this game to be fixed

[Studders]

No its understandable. I've just restarted the game and Xenon are attacking me so I'm hoping that it won't change now. Gutted that I've lost my miner and my ship but hey, it's a big game and bugs are expected this early on. Hopefully when they fix I won't have to restart again!

[Unkrautvernichter]

Same problem on my side. Friendly AI works perfect but there is no more enemy. Xenon, Khaak, Pirates...all lost. Even the Xenon sector is total empty. No fights or war in the whole universe. Reload doesn´t help.
this can´t be a feature. It must be a huge bug.

[Studders]

Yeah it must be a bug. Even pirates just not going for me feels wrong. Especially when I ignore them haha!

Can you confirm that a fresh game solve the problem? also happening to me

Well I started a new game and things are attacking me again. Although I don't know what happened the first time that caused the bug to happen so all I can do is hope it doesnt replicate.

As well as this though the patchfinding for AI seems to be a mess anyway, the behaviour commands don't always seem to work, when asking for a ship to follow me they don't seem to keep up even with the same engines (I'm guessing this has something to do with travel mode) but sometimes they will go as fast as I am when going through another sector to catch up and I have heard some problems with autotrade/mine. I'm just really hoping egosoft are aware and fixing these, if i'm brutally honest some of these should have been ironed out in testing before asking us to pay £40 but I understand its a big game and they need time. Looking over the forums they have their work cut out for them.

Playing 1.10 I have a variaten of this. In my game lot's of stuff flying and fighting, getting attacked no problem but I have no more NPC's on stations. Not standing and walking around, not in shops, There are none.

Same problem with AI crew not using Travel mode.

Travel Mode is strange to me, I can see how it helps the player but if the AI can't use it then it's just a massive advantage to the player. You can use it to get away from enemies and they are unable to catch you. Also, if AI ships who work for you don't use it, like wings for example, then how are they meant to stay with you in formation?
