Disappearing Ships

from Sins Forums

Sadly I cannot give too much details of what happened with this bug as I did not realise for a few minutes after it must have happened. I had a fleet of about five or six TEC cap ships around a repair station before sending them to intercept a small enemy fleet. After sending this order I had focused on something else so I didn't actually see the movement. When I went to check the fleet's progress I noticed that when looking at the icons on the left of the screen the planet they had left still had one capital ship there and sure enough the moving fleet was missing a Kol Battleship. However when actually looking around the gravity well the ship was not there so I double clicked the icon and found myself staring into empty space some undeterminable distance away from any system and the ship was not actually in sight. Unfortunately there isn't a great deal else I can say to describe the situation but hopefully it was just a one off.

This is in the known issues post. Send in the save files as it may help them pinpoint what is doing it.

You just lost a Kol? psshhh.  I lost a LEVEL 4 CORONATA that way.  It was still on my empire tree so i was able to scuttle it and guess what; it takes 225 seconds to scuttle a titan.

I need to find that save file and send it to them.

Wow I would be raging if that happened to me. I've started seeing it happen with AI as well, there are ships that should be around a planet but just aren't there. I'll send those files to see if they help at all.

well, i was just fighting against an unfair AI so i was able to build another without any interference, which is almost more annoying than losing the coronata.

Well, in case of the "capture the flag" thing, loss of a Titan can mean the difference between win and loss the game... time for scuttle + time for build a titan along with the time needed for jump to a other star system with the special planet and the timer will ring on your defeat !!!
