I’ve got one of the episodes couple of days ago. My but still hurts.

Yeah if I afk AP in an inty, I close the app and don’t even think about EE until I’ve reached the destination. Even going to the login page can stop your autopilot cold.

Having the app run in the background causes weird lag and delays jumping. I did extensive testing in the beginning of the game. Force close the app and you should be good. It is still possible with good targeting skills to sometimes get 1 shot off. Have 3 drams at 3 consecutive gates and you could probably pop a lot of interceptors.

Don't kill the process if you're play on Android. My ship was stuck after few jumps. Run autopilot and when your ships starts jumping press home button and wait until you'll receive a notification.

Same if you open the PI page or the CORP page, the AP does not disengage, but is paralyzed after the next jump. And not randomly, EVERY TIME.

Lol, these also kill drone auto attack. How they make these bugs happen I’ll never know.

That had to be his afk autopilot randomly stopping was he sitting at a gate?

I didn’t make that one meme for no reason. Autopilot likes to say fuck you at times

Doesn’t have to be afk. Don’t open corp or planetary menu. It’ll stop you from warping.

Oof!!! Is this confirmed? The autopilot is fairly shitty to begin with, but this would be absolutely donkey turd even by NetEase zero quality development standards

Confirm it yourself. Set a destination 2 jumps away, tap start and open the pl menu.

Yep. I am idle at gate. Wtf man.

So the only way to afk is to wait for the first warp to start and log off... Then wait for the reached xyz notification.

In between do nothing. Not even look at the phone.

Kind of hilarious that 3 cargohold I's would be better than 1 cargohold II and cheaper, weird fit.

Having 3 rig slots is a part of the cost of the ship, not just a given.

He's commenting on the fact that 3x Cargo I is better (and cheaper) than 1x Cargo II, yet this fit is not leveraging the 3 rig slots at all.

That’s a solid 2.5B drop you got right there.

Maybe he stalled at the gate due to the pressure, learner driver license maybe ?

If you open you PI or Corp window while auto-piloting the game pauses when you exit a gate. So after your exit gate cloak timer wears off you are vulnerable. Netease recently replaced my ship because of this bug but refused to replace the cargo contents, stating that “We also understand that it is not easy for you to build a boat. It's just that our side must also abide by our rules. There are crises everywhere in the interstellar journey. I believe that most players have had the same experience of detroying ships, but this is also part of the gameplay.At the same time, we also tried our best to contact and give feedback to the technicians on your situation many times, hoping to help you, but unfortunately, we were told that the current situation is nor obligble for compensation.Although you make an exception to compensate, it will be unfair to other players.

Many of our customer services are also players, and we understand players’ demands and moods very well.Our job responsibility is to serve and help every player, solve problems, and maintain the fairness and harmony of the game world.But everything needs to look at the positive side. The team hopes that this game can bring unforgettable memories and experiences to each player.”
