    @ravien_ff - hi, we have a weird problem on our dedicated server. On several of the playfields, especially in space, resources are not being spawned.

    For eg, we find a resource asteroid in space - but cant see it, just the place marker for it.

    When I use 'map' command and fly to a bunch of asteroids to test then sometimes I find several markers, but no asteroid. We have noticed a similar on some planets as well (we started on swap world, and finding some missing resources on there as well) - resource marker, but no actual resource. This is not affecting all resources, just some and subjectively in the more densely populated orbit playfields.

    This is on a nitrado server, no EAH.

    Any ideas? Thanks

    Just give me a moment to tie one arm behind my back and I'm ready! ;)

    Joking aside, I really do like quite extreme early-game challenges. I totally lapped up the irradiated planet start, bloody loved it.

    I have had a lot of reports of this exact problem with orbital POIs, mostly on Nitrado servers too. I don't know what causes it or how to fix it besides using a different hosting company.
    For missing ground resources, that's a default game bug.

    Alpha 12 is changing a lot, and this problem may be fixed then (or made worse). So before spending the time and money to switch hosts, you might want to wait for alpha 12.

    Looks promising. I assume you mean that's all I can see, but not all that's (lurking) out there, right? :)

    Terrans are edible, if you're a hungry predator on a pitch black planet. :D

    Thanks for the reply. Its a shame - we really like the PE starts.

    I would seem my take on this is that if Eleon and Nitrado have some arrangement to be the preferred hosting partner, then the pair of them need to be stepping up to investigate this and fix / state workaround as a matter of urgency.

    @Hummel-o-War ?

    I'm sure I will get hungry and I'm certainly a predator, so as soon as Eleon add some recipes for "unidentified meat" we're good :) Not what I planned to be eating, but needs must and all that lol.

    Eleon can't offer support for custom mods/etc. I add a lot of POIs to some playfields and this seems the source of the problem.
    Though I have never been able to reproduce the issue using our dedicated server. It might be something with Nitrado's internal configs or that they don't provide enough server resources.

    I was assuming this as well - either way, if Nitrado are running poor config relative to others, then I think its a matter for Eleon to help them sort out because of the apparent arrangement between them.

    If there was no such arrangement, then sure - tough sh** and move on :)

    I’m not sure what Eleon has to do with Nitrado. I confess I’ve not checked to see if they promote Nitrado but while they are fairly cheap there is a reason for that. Get what you pay for. I have had them for a couple of small servers and they just could not keep up. There are better hosts out there for a bit more money. I finally gave up and got a decent dedicated which while a little higher than the few stand alone, gives me a lot more bang for the buck.

    You wanted to know if I' d encounter any further POI Ship Wreck issues -> its also, partially surrounded with a "non-textured" surface. Vomited_2020-04-17_10-34-01.png

    EDIT:
    I am not sure if this is not a loading or a so-called "long gaming session" Error.
    I am sure that all Vessels I cored for later scavenging have been in no such black surface Box.
    But now I encountered the second Vessel which I have cored several Gaming days ago.
