    Can you also supply the save game with your character left sat in that SV ?

    Sadly not, this is a private server I connect t0 - unless there's some console command or something I can do to take a snapshot?

    Only the server admin can. If you aren't the admin, you would have to ask them if they would be willing to provide a copy.

    No command for what is being asked for.

    Is it at all possible for you to reproduce this away form the server you had this happen on like in a coop save game or if you can run the empyrion dedicated server on your end ?
    Ideally with only 1 of the turrets that caused this to happen to you setup on a structure that will fire at the SV you show.

    Ok sorry feel like an idiot for asking this but I've been searching here and googling but can't find the proper answer.

    I know the zirax ship but whenever I spawn it in it does nothing, the marker shows up green, how can I make it behave as enemy AI? I've tried several console commands and the debug menu just want to spawn npcs. I believe it's the Ion turret but can't get a test work.

    you need to use the faction command

    faction entity Zrx EntityID

    You get the EntityID by typing in 'di' in the console and going close to the ship. The ID will then show up in the hud info on the top screen area.

    Thank you that was sending me nuts.

    Seem to be having trouble replicating this on a single player game. The server I play on definitely has some modifications to the config.ecf but don't see how that should cause the issue of blast damage making it through shields and cockpit. I'll continue experimenting now I'm a bit more versed in the console commands

    Can you attach the save game you are trying this out with so I can also try with the same SV as you are using ?
    Go to
    SteamLibrary\steamapps\Common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Saves\Games

    Right click on the save file & place your mouse cursor over 'Send to' create a compressed copy of it then drag & drop a copy in your reply box or use the upload a file option.
    If the file is too large use a file hosting site like mediafire, dropbox or google drive then add a share link to it.
    Thanks.

    ok I can't get the taking player damage through shields to replicate but I have taken damage through the cockpit. It's happening when components on the ship get destroyed.

    Attached is the saved game, fly to the front of the Patrol Ship and just take the damage head on, something will blow up and hurt the character

    With the shield on or off ?

    Are you able to make a short video showing this happen ?

    Also a short video of this happening on the server also ?

    I ask because so far when using your save I cannot trigger it.

    Sadly don't have anything to take a video to hand at the moment.

    I think the save I provided had the ship already damaged. I've set up a better one here. Just fly forwards and stop about 500m from the ship and take the hits, stuff starts to blow up on the ship a which point something explodes and hurts you in the cockpit

    Ok thanks I'll try some more with this save also.

    For video recording perhaps check out OBS it's free & very easy to use with very little cpu usage whilst recording https://obsproject.com/

    Thanks. Here's a video of it happening.
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1up7Fsjz1IXFHChy0MjT_n6r3UQdJgYyZ/view?usp=sharing

    I'm convinced its something on the SV doing it (strongly suspect a generator) and it's always 230 health damage.

    I'll attempt on the server but that patrol ship has been destroyed, even though I've got admin rights on the server I don't see the blueprint ("sbp", "gm" and "im" all on) to get it back. Also this one was flying around and I'm also wondering if the fixed rockets/lasers were engaging me - something the single player save provided doesn't want to do.

    Edit to add:
    The cockpit after that video is 1296/1600 hitpoints

    Edit, again:
    Can spawn it on the server now, will try a test/video later
