[Ship fuse?] Crayter NPCs in Omicron Tau don't drop pilots - Maltz - 04-11-2020

====================
Type: Systems
Bug: Crayter NPCs don't drop their pilots above snubs in Omicron Tau.
====================

It's an old bug and i think it won't be fixed anytime soon. Since MNG affected the system design recently (Phi JH) and their raids are more common there, i think it would be better to have gallic navy missions in Omicon Tau, replacing Crayter completely. I assume their NPCs aren't broken. Please consider it.


[Server / Missions] Crayter pilots not dropping - Hokan - 05-10-2020

Bug: Crayter Republic NPCs don't drop pilots
====================

During missions against Crayter, the NPCs have pilots in their hold but upon destruction, they do not drop.
Missions are taken in Omicron Tau from Genoa.

Someone is saying that they caused server crashes, so I am inclined to say this is not something we can fix.

The question I would like to ask is WHERE are the usual randomly spawned npcs? Nowhere to be found over the last couple of days and I'm starting to wonder if I'm detecting a pattern. This game isn't much fun at all without them IMHO. Especially after so much trouble was taken to make the new voiceovers.

Depending on the server load, which is increasing with each player, the npc spawns decrease until none spawn at all.

So the reason for no npcs around is too many players. Which really is the opposite of a problem.

Then I would propose to remove CR NPCs from O-Tau, make it full BHG or better add Confederation instead.

CR NPCs were forgotten to be removed after CR carrier left O-Tau, since they were added when it was deployed. If they cause the server crashes, then it's one less reason for them to be spanwed in this system.

I had no idea, so thanks for the heads up. Maybe it's just me but I do like npcs around, I like talking to them, they make regions of space feel populated and I especially like the dialogue with bases. They are also useful for practising turret steering if you don't want to have to do formal missions. The only draw-back is trade lane disruption but I can live with that.

Yeah so the server is currently set to stop spawning (random) NPCs at a load of 20ms, we seem to hover at around 0.5-1.5ms server load per player online. While the server has dropped below a recorded load of 20ms this week it's unlikely during peak. You might have some luck between around 0530-0930 hours.

Also your question is totally off-topic for this bug report. We're talking about NPCs that do spawn not dropping pilots that they are carrying.

soma gallic npcs would be sweet anyways!

I will lock the thread unless people keep stay on topic.
