    I'm hoping this isn't because I'm still running a 1.4 savegame...I've knocked the core out of 3 different zirax ships today and had that message when trying to place my own core so I can get some combat steel blocks for a new combat CV. Does anyone know why that is happening? 1 freighter, one Periat-class Frigate and one Imerat-class Destroyer. None were reinforcements (at least, I didn't get a warning that reinforcements were incoming)

    Not 100 percent sure but there was a patch note today about a being able to put cores in stopped ai vessels
    Maybe connected to your issue

    Yes I have this for last couple of days if they have done it intentionally they need to get brain scan looting ships is the essence of the game for single players.

    I can still do it in salvage mode, but lose the time savings in the factory that full blocks provide.

    "Changes:
    - The Player core can now be placed back on AI vessels that have been stopped"

    This is from the last patch so we should be able to core them unless they cocked it up cos I am sure the problem started after the patch for me

    Suggestion:
    If it does not work as it is seemingly intended - Write a Bug report - so the Devs can look into it.

    VERY interesting. Is this only on the Beta channel? I opened my Steam game this AM and saw no update ...

    Just checked again. Updated, but doesn't solve one of my biggest complains since 1.5. Will post separately.

    I am not running experimental, no.

    They still haven't changed/fixed that you can't leave your captured vessel (with my core) to go grab a dedicated salvage ship. Which is strange since I remember reading over and over that they intended specialized ships rather than all rounders. I guess I'm going back to my MCRN-258 as my everything ship rather than using my dedicated combat ship to clear a sector, salvage ship to grab at least the good stuff and maybe the blocks too then mine it out if I need the ores that are available.

    It's a shame because building (through the factory, I'm not creative enough to build new ones but I frequently change quite a bit about them to suit my play style) a new ship is a way to keep myself going when I hit a stall on missions and such.

    Yeah I just addressed this (rather angrily) in this post: https://empyriononline.com/threads/single-player-totally-cocked-since-1-5-regeneratable-pois.98600/

    Like you, I'm not creative enough to build a ship (that looks good and functions great) but do pretty good at Modding existing designs. I have many skills, ship design isn't counted among them.:rolleyes::cool:

    It seems all the Devs focus is on multiplayer and us Single Players are being told to go pound sand. :(
