BUG/GLITCH NPC ships geting STUCK near asteroids/wreaks

[Schakar]

As I tried to gather matrials to build guns I noticed, that some systems totaly STUCK as all NPC ships inside them couldn't move anymore.

 

After spending several hours inside this systems I belive to found the problem:

- NPC hauler spawned to close to asteroids

 

Solving the problem:

As player: All you can do is to destroy this asteroids/debris one by one with lasers or other guns ... terrible if 10+ NPC ships are stuck :(

 

Peer Software:

1) increase the "free area" check when NPC ships are spawned (double the needed space maybe). This one should be an easy number-change.

 

(maybe) 2) creat some sort of "Anti not mineral asteroid/debris" weapon which NPC ships can use to clean their way.

What I found works best to free them up is to use a force turret to move the debris/rock out of the way. I turned up the time to disappear on the wreckages in my server, and now I have a regular sector with stations and asteroids that looks like a scrapyard, and have been getting all kinds of ships stuck.

To clear this up, I've been building lots of salvagers, but even they get stuck.
