What happen when you log off from a mothership? does is vanish? does is stay ingame and anyone with the skills to pilot it can board it? does it stay ingame but only players with the correct rights and from the same corporation can board it? does it stay ingame but nobody can board it? something else?
What if you have put a cloaking device on it and cloak the ship at a SS just before login off, does it stay cloaked or does it move to a random location and is visible on scanners?

Behaves EXACTLY like any other ship in game.
Although you can't dock it. New sig coming soonÖ By "soon" I do not necessarily mean "this year" |

1- Uh, logging off in, or out of it? If in, It's disappears, If you're not in it. It stays there. 2- See 1.. 3- Yea 4- Uhm... if it's just in space... anyone with skills can board it. It has no real 'restrictions' that can apply to it.. 5- Uh yea. 6- what?

Thanks for your replies (except the 1st one that was totally useless)
Now, i would have another question 
The ship can be kind of anchored right? to use the clone vat bay
What happen then if you log off while it is in that state? does it still disappears or does it act as any other anchored structure and stay ingame?

I would say the ship disappears after the 300 sec. cycle of the clone vat bay, but what i really don't know is what happen is someone jump clone to your mothership and is still onboard when you log off / lose connection / CTD?

Ohh, good question. But, I bet if you're anchored to use the Clone Vat, it probably wont go anywhere? Or at the very least all the pilots inside would get a.."ship is unanchoring, youhave X minutes to leave the ship"

My guess is you will appear in a pod right outside the ship. If the mothership pilot flies away, crashes out, or whatever else you will just be left alone in space in nothing but a pod. I didn't know they needed to anchor first, but I guess you wont warp away if you have to do so.

The ship isn't really anchored, but is immobilized for the duration of the clone vat bay cycle of 300 sec. as we can see in the clone vat bay description (just as dreads are immobilized when they go in siege mode)
Quote: Note: In order to be able to clone to your ship, a pilot must have a working clone already installed in the vessel. In addition, the power required to safely and accurately receive and transmit transneural scanner data is diverted from the ship's engines; therefore, when the Clone Vat Bay is activated, the capital ship becomes unable to move.

Right, sounds a bit like a cynosural field generator then. Chances are it'll still safespot then when you CTD. But my guess still stands, you will probably arrive outside the mothership in a pod.

I'm not sure about that, since Motherships and Titans are the only ships to have a value of 2 to this description
Quote: maximum concurrent operational users
While all other ships have a value of 1, i think it does mean that 2 players can be IN the Mothership (and Titan) at the same time, but the player clone jumping would have to "undock" to let another player clone jump too, or if you prefer, it would be impossible for a 3rd player to jump clone too as long as both the pilot and another player are in the ship at the same time
But this is only a guess, i can be completly wrong

When someone jumps to you he wont be in the mothership. Hell be floating next to you in a pod, he can then access the corp hangar in space, excactly like it looks ingame.
If you log off with the cloning fat running your ship will not move untill the cycle ends, after this hell warp to a safe and dissapear.
Since you are offline and no longer in the game people wont be able to jump your mothership. -----

Ok, but what does the "maximum concurrent operational users = 2" stand for then? Is it that you can allow a 2nd player that has the required skills to board the mothership so you can eject from it and go to another ship without fear that the mothership will be stolen?

It means that two people can look into your corp hangar at the same time. If a 3rd one tries to open it hell get an error. -----

i know you cant dock motherships and titans, but then how do you get into another ship?

Warp to a POS. Eject, hop in another ship.

Try owning a Titan. Any Alliance building a Titan is going to have to pretty much give up a high SP character to live in it permanently. No one will leave it at a POS. I would imagine the same goes for Mothership owners.

Put a password on the shield and dont tell anyone. Problem solved.
Though while youre at it, deploy a capital ship storage array or whatever its called. Prevents people from seeing whats actually being stored at the POS. -----

I fully endorse this response.
Please leave your motherships at POS

I don't think that reason alone is enough to stop it being used, but coupled with all the other issues (skillbooks not seeded eg.), I can see why it's still sitting there.

all the big corps are probally training up titan pilots across multiple time zones as to have them staffed in shifts. so as one pilot goes to sleep another logs in and boards the titan. that or the corp leader allready has an alt ready to go and that alt will sit in the mothership or titan with it hidden somewhere until its needed and then a real pilot with the right skills will climb in for the war.

I think you can leave it at a POS. So long as you can jump back to the system and enter the ship before you log off. Somebody has got to log off in that thing...

Because it is stuck in the station ? (well, that's what I heard last time on this topic) _____________________________

I am pretty sure that they functionally have an IOU from the GM staff for a Wyvern. When they want to deploy it they will have to petition to have the ship deployed somewhere in space for them because it cannot be assembled in a station ..... I think.
