Entire ship gets deleted during Salvage recovery mission

RogueWraith909 shared this bug ago

Investigating

I'd flown over 1400KM to get to the location then claimed, partially stripped down and taken complete ownership of the grid before merge blocking it to the side of my ship (modified space starter ship - bigger that it was by quite a bit). I was on the way home and it keeps deleting BOTH ships in flight. I have plenty of power, own all blocks as far as I can tell and am moving so clear up shouldn't be touching it. I can't figure out why everything goes bye bye and leaves me floating in space with literally nothing but what I have in my inventory.

I removed all mods and tried again but the same happened so I know it's not that. It's pretty annoying and game breaking to lose EVERYTHING for trying to salvage a grid from a salvage mission (I merge block on to avoid issues with physics).

Hello Engineer,

Thank you for writing to us on our PC Support Forum.

We were able to observe the same issue you described. However, when we accepted a new Salvage Contract and we were able to finish it without any issues, and everything worked as expected.

Since this world was originally modded, we'd like to rule out whether the issue could be related to that. Even though the MODs have been removed, it's possible that some mod-related data may still remain in the world save and be affecting the game.

So, if you happen to remember, could you let us know if there were any specific steps or events that occurred before this issue started happening? Any details, even if they seem minor, could help us reproduce the issue on our side in a new vanilla (unmodded) world and determine whether there's an underlying bug.

Kind Regards,

Keen Software House: QA Department

Nothing I can recall that I'd do differently. I'd done the same thing on other saves with the same mod set and had no issues at all while doing exactly what I did here. That was why it surprised me. I'd run through it after reloading at different points several times before I gave up and reported it. There's one thing I haven't tried... separating the grids again and flying away from it in my ship to see if my ship gets deleted if I leave the other grid behind. If that still causes my ship to get wiped and the other grid then there's something that's changed in the status of the hull I was flying after that merge, but I'm not aware of anything that would do that.

I tried today with the disconnecting and flying off... With it connected to me I get 2km or less and everything gets eaten... with it NOT connected I can fly the starter ship part over 10km without issue (but the other grid I detached from vanishes after about 1.7km from where I'd stopped (it had already been moved about 40km from where it had spawned) - I placed a waypoint before I moved). I disabled trash clean up with Alt+F10 tool set and it still got deleted.
