Hey, @TWBoss. Welcome back ^^

It was deleted because it existed for longer than 14 days in a starter system. In the starter systems, very structure has an individual 14-day timer, that can only be avoided by leaving the system entirely.  
Outside the starters, there is a 30-day touch timer instead, so you just have to physically touch your structures once every 30th day to avoid losing them 🙂

But no worries, if you just let me know here next time you’re in-game on Tallodar, I’ll restore your ship again. I’d recommend leaving ASAP, since if you have other ships, they’re next in line for deletion.

Hey! Thank you for offering to restore my ship! ^^

I just wanted to clarify that my ship suddenly sank into the ground and disappeared about 30 seconds after I spawned it. It wasn’t intentionally left unused or abandoned.

I’m getting ready to log in to the game now and will let you know once I’m in-game on Tallodar.

Could you please help restore my starter ship when I’m online? I also lost all the items stored inside it. If possible, could those items be recovered as well?

Thank you so much for your help!

Ah, I see. That’s super weird. I don’t think I’ve seen this bug before.

@RexXxuS, have you seen this before? The ship’s last movement date was seto to year 1900.
