How can we help you now?
=> Fix so players cant do this. previous issue from several years ago never resolved (Scrapyard spoofing). its just crappy players can claim these ships and leave them and players with not alot of knowledge can make this mistake. Just frustrating. im out 100k and wanted to claim this ship to fix it up.
First of all, this is a Reforged Eden issue, and not really something we will fix on our side Youâd have to write to the scenario devs instead.
Second, I would highly encourage you to avoid those vessels. In singleplayer it might be fine, but in multiplayer they will eventually reset, meaning youâre left stranded and lose all your stuff.
If you want a free ship, you should use our command for it instead. Go to the starter planets and use egs:spawn for a free and âpermanentâ ship, which you can do with as you wish.
Itâs even free
Once a ship is claimed, there is no scam to consume your token by the owner of the ship, just go find a scrapyard with the ship you want that is claimable. I personnally claim and put my core there because its right there and oway from the ship and from errant salvage zaps.
I went through 20 scrapyards at the start of the season all within range of the starter systems. I know others working on scrapyards as well.
No one is part of some conspiracy. Most of the scrappers, claim them in bulk to come back later to scrap at their leisure.
You are late to the party and need to go find a scrapyard no one has claimed the ships from.
There are people that leave there cores on scrapped out ships, those people suck because that just sits there unable to respawn.
I wouldnât dissuade players from the playing the scenario.
While Iâve never heard of one of these ships poofing on someone because it reset. I would advise a player how they can use the ship.
A thought: Advise they blueprint the ship, scrap it apart and feed the scrap into the blueprint, now they have the ship they want and its player made not tied to whatever rogue process resets it.
Iâm not dissuading anyone from playing the scenario But Iâve had multiple tickets of people claiming those scrap ships and using them as their own, only for them to reset at some point later, which means they lost everything they had.
From the ticket here, it also sounds like they wanted to use the ship as their own and not to scrap it, which is why I recommend using the free starter ships you get from commands.
i know of few people having issues with it where you would flip the switch at those ships to destroy the core, but because scenario makers messed up a bit (fairly, scenario is still a beta version), the core wouldnât get destroyedâŚand with every flip of the switch, you lose one salvaging licence, no matter if the core is destroyed or notâŚ
so yes, pretty much a RE issue, not a HWS one
