Hello,
in general you can buyback your ship claimed by HWS yourself:

egs:buyback:ID

If your structure got seized to HWS faction you can buy it back with this command. Get the ID by typing “di” in the in-game console and look at your structure.

I can make an exception when I know the ID of your structure.
Because searching for oblivion drill gave me no results

I had to leave as I was in potential danger at the moment but I returned as soon as I could to use the egs:buyback command. but, the structure was no longer there thats when I checked the structure commander and it was missing from there as well. I will double check the spelling of the ships name for you.

the name I spawned it in as was “defensive miner - 2Xxeno” but was renamed to “Oblivion Drill” shortly afterward. not sure if caps matter.

I didn’t know about the buyback command while this was going on and after talking to a friend to find out what to do he mentioned there was a command so I looked it up and headed back.

Ok let me check again

sorry to bother you Rex, but I do appreciate you and dark’s hard work.
