Ship stuck - won't auto mine

Post by zKeyy »

Just bought a L size Crane ship.
When ordered to auto mine, it moves a bit and then gets stuck. When zooming on the ship on the map its icon is glitching back and forth.

Giving the ship a move order still works though, so it gets unstuck, but as soon as I order it to auto mine again, the same thing happens.

I found that problem when there isnt any ore left and the AI doesnt know what to do even though you may have set it to work in many sectors. the same thing happens if you have your miner mining more then one type of ore and one of the ores runs out. if its more then one or you can tell it to stop mining the ore that has run out in the sector and it'll start working again or send it to another sector that has ore.

It's a manual work around but definantly not a fix had the same problem a few days agao bugs been in sinse launch -_-.

Hey thanks for the workaround!
I guessed it had something to do with my 5 M ships mining the same thing in the sector so I tried increasing the gate distance and it didn't work.

I didn't think about assigning my ship manually in another sector though..
Damn so many bugs
