Required Information in all Technical Support Requests

Please ensure that you provide the following information for all questions posted in this Technical Support forum.
  • Version and language (e.g. 8.00 Hotfix 3, English, etc.).
  • Whether or not your game is modified using any third party scripts or mods (see note below).
  • The game start you originally selected for the game in which the problem occurred.
  • Exact nature of the problem, where and when it occurs and what you were doing at the time.
  • Any possibly relevant changes you have made to your game, system, or software before the issue occurred.
  • Where appropriate, additional symptoms, error messages, links to saves, screenshots and crash dump files (see this Wiki entry).
  • Your system specifications in the form of a DxDiag report and vulkaninfo (see this Wiki entry).
Failure to provide all this information will make it pretty much impossible for people to help you and may mean that it takes longer for your problem to be identified and hopefully solved. So please don't waste your own time and everyone else's by just posting something like "My game freezes. Help!!!".

If you are supplying information that will not conveniently fit into posts in this forum (approx 70,000 character limit per post), in the worst case you can split long text files across 2 consecutive posts, or ideally you can upload the data to a reputable public fileshare site (a few examples are Google Drive, DropBox or PasteBin, etc) but please don't use sites that spam advertising or require registration for downloads. Please use in your post the open public sharing link to your file(s) that will not require any account or registration for others to download.

Note: Support for third party modifications must be provided by the authors of those modifications, and any requests for such support should be posted in the appropriate thread in the Scripts and Modding forum.

[#5723][8.0 Bug] No Station Hitbox/Collision After Teleporting To Ship, If You're In A Video Call With Its Captain

Post by elixir087 »

8.0 Steam Public Version, English, Win11, Vanilla No Mods

Steps to reproduce:
1 - Be in a different sector
2 - Order Capital Ship to fly at enemy station
3 - Wait for the captain to call you about taking damage
4 - Teleport to him
5 - Arrive before call ends
6 - Try to shoot the station (you can't, beam passes right through it)

Basically, if your ship is being attacked and you arrive via teleport while its captain is in the middle of a video call with you, nearby station has no collision. You have to teleport out and back in again to reactivate the station hitbox. Which is typically too late and your ship will explode. Otherwise you could've simply shot the defence module with the Asgard beam to save it.

This dropbox has my dxdiag, vulkaninfo, 2 recordings and a vanilla save to reproduce the bug. I set up an Asgard (MUG-864) in Two Grand near a hostile Teladi Defence Platform. He is taking damage and he will call you soon for orders. It's in the exact same condition as the first video. You just have to hit teleport when you get his alert.
