Build: 1.5.5 3444 Mode: Survival Mode: Single Player SERVER NAME: N/A SEED-ID: 794385 If applicable: MODIFIED PLAYFIELDS: None Reproducibility: Persistent Severity: Major Type: AI Vessels Summary: Drones continue to appear and attack my bases after I have captured the Drone Base on planet Description: I took over the Drone Base and installed my CPU. I received a message that no further drone attacks would occur. Upon return to my home base, I was attacked by drones. The timer shows no pending attacks. I later was attacked at the Zirax Storage Facility, where I also had my own CPU installed. After killing all attackers, I did NOT receive a message that I had successfully defended my base. I waited around and continued my demo of the facility. Upon finishing, I demo'd my CPU last and got a message that the Zirax had defeated me and retaken my facility. I updated this to MAJOR since I now cannot peacefully build a CV which is next on my roadmap. The difficulty of drone attacks has increased significantly. Steps to Reproduce: 1) This is a persistent issue 2) 3) Screenshots, Crash Logs, any other Relevant Information or Download links: Screenshot showing my ownership of Drone Base with attack pending; https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1688273096649482615/A5A83C952E6361FD39E88212DFBA1229044CC3C2/?imw=5000&imh=5000&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=#000000&letterbox=false Screenshot after defending: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1688273096649482710/107C604FFBF7BEB28660D032F130B5550785A1C8/?imw=5000&imh=5000&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=#000000&letterbox=false Screenshot of my home base showing another pending attack: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1688273096649482802/367A1BC414425D27F23347233222EFC35BB850E9/?imw=5000&imh=5000&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=#000000&letterbox=false Screenshot of Drone Base after leaving, visiting home base, and returning.

Upon further review it appears that the Active HQ is now the Patrol Vessel HQ. I have to admit that I am not 100% sure if it was not always that way. I was under the assumption that destroying the Drone Base would permanently stop the attacks, as it stated in the message that I received once destroyed. I assume that this is as intended, therefore this is not likely a bug? https://1drv.ms/u/s!AqgzO3BXHsZNg_xxZUZdZRRh440fsg?e=mVjNfI
AFAIK it is intentional that the ACTIVE Drone Base jumps to the next POI if the Original Drone Base gets conquered/destroyed.
If the control panel of your base is showing another base as the HQ then likely not a bug. I'll check the save shortly also thanks for linking a copy of it. Edit: After the AIPV HQ core is destroyed the attacks stop entirely.
