Realy i am the only one thinking this needs to be looked at asap?

Did you file a bug report?

Ninja ISK sink?

Yup i did, got told working as intended game mechanic due to issues with too many ships in space droping aka shuttle bombs.

So instead of making a real solution this is what they came up with NO loot.

Well, maybe they should implement cans that allow you to store large amount of fit and unfit ships within, then allow those to drop from cargo. I've never actually seen a ship fall out of a ship before.

while they are at it, they should just allow you to put fit ships in your cargo of a freighter instead of this awkward work around of courier contracts.

the pos shall explode in hundreds of little cans ;)

this is also a issue when some one salvages a carrier wreak, orca wreak, freighter wreak or any thing else that can carry single items above 27k in size.

My experience with this is that the salvager will not operate on the wreck if it contains more than a jetcan's worth in volume, not that the loot disappears.

This one is just a manner of looting first.

Curently if you shoot any thing that can drop any thing above 27k m3, the server eats it and puts it down a black hole of onnomnom, when it gets turned in a can and fails the if cargo above 27k = implod, this is also a issue when some one salvages a carrier wreak, orca wreak, freighter wreak or any thing else that can carry single items above 27k in size.

Make loot cans unlimted in size and player made ejected cargo cans current or some thing.

It used to be if you blew up a ship hangar, some of the ships inside would inject into space...
It used to be if you blew up a corp hangar/assembly array/silo, some of the stuff inside would drop as cans in space...

If you blew up a corp hangar/assembly array with >> 27k m3, it would drop multiple cans...

Are you saying this is no longer true?????????

If so, that's just not acceptable... I want my loot damnit!!!!

If loot doesn't drop because it's too big, the only thing that comes to mind is it's a bug. File a bug report. I think something like that is no joking matter. Big loot is one of the most important parts of the EVE economy.

Thank you for your bugreport titled: SMA dont drop ships

The problem you have described is an intended game feature or function, and not a bug.

This is by design, ships are not dropped into space upon the destruction of SMA-¦s deliberately, as there would be a number of problematic scenarios if this was permitted to occur.

i did



so yea

"Large loot cases" aren't limited to ships and SMAs. Did they say anything about the rest?

This seriously sounds like an unintended bug that no one wan't to fix or can't!

We just need to make more people aware of the problem and I'm sure it will get fixed eventually. Maybe in like 18 months :D.

Realy i am the only one thinking this needs to be looked at asap?

Yes.

And "loot for shot pos"?!?! Really?

ya rly.

you shoudl be rewarded for taking out space trash

POSes, they only affect "a small portion" of players.

:colbert:

lol CCP grives you grifeirs by takign ur loot. HTFU n00b.

Erm, no, this is actually a thing tbh

Wrecks should be separate cans that are the size of whatever was dropped, otherwise, what's the point of the drop?

God no, that would be way too easy!

Add real carriers to the game, capable of transporting fit ships WITH pilots in them.

needs to be fixed

Wounder if this also gets a soonGäó stamp

Could a dev please comment on this?

Ships bigger than 27k in size when unpacked, gets destroyed from SMA.

SINGLE things bigger than 27k also gets destroyed i.e courier packages, ships ect.

kill a corp hanger with stufGäó and you get multiple cans

"Ships bigger than 27k in size when unpacked, gets destroyed from SMA."
Almost every dessie+ ship in the game is bigger than 27k m3 when unpacked... It used to be that "dropped" ship would just kick out into space... waiting for someone to board. I've picked up Ravens and Megathrons from SMA's I've blown up.
--- If CCP has changed this, so BS's and Tengu's no longer drop when I blow up an SMA, it explains why I rarely get anything other than shuttles and frigates in the past many months... CCP, fix this...... or provide a damn good explanation why it was changed!!!

This weekend I destroyed some silo's that dropped multiple cans of loot (each can containing 27k m3 of Reaction Products). So I know it's possible to ket lots of stuff dropping still....

I'll quote myself.

Just to get this correct, if the total total contents of a hangar array are above 27km3 then all the items are destroyed?

For instance if you had a stack of 28km3 of tritanium, then it would all be destroyed instead of splitting the stack? Because that would suck.

If it is just that any items over 27km3 are being destroyed though then I don't see what the big problem is. Surely that would only destroy unpackaged ships and packaged ones above a battlecruiser.

I'll quote myself.

needs to be fixed!

needs to be fixed

Wounder if this is the code they used.

ccp -> if_cargo_>27000=delete_loot

the logs, they show nothing.


So CCP anyone care to clarify if ships in smas now pop out or vanish?
