    Hi,

    Anyone can share what is considered a mini structure that will be removed after x hours in multiplayer or even single player. I was testing a few small structure in creative and it got removed after some hours.

    I know I read a patch some time ago that small structures or certain size will be removed but cannot find it when I tried searching small or mini structure. Lost of mini-CV results.

    thanks

    does it also imply any with lost cores at any size? my server is set to no removal of all BUT mini so I was confused at the removal of the recently core-popped "PIR" cv that took 20 minutes to wear down the sheilds and another 30 to work my way through into the core room before I had to sleep
    I expected it to be right next to me a day later waiting to be salvaged and it was just gone
    or is it a bug or hardcoded limit?

    AI vessels have a different logic. In my singleplayer I also cored one. Went to sleep. Than loaded the savegame, I saw the cored ship for less than a second and than it disappeared.

    so the devs set the NPC stuff to despawn as a hardcoded time? well devs that is just stupid frankly as newsflash: not all people enjoy pvp
    so having my dedi reset while I am salvaging the most recent ship I took down only to know that as soon as I log off there is no chance to salvage more parts is just not ok
    sure the core race "self destruct" is a decent idea
    it forces players to get really good at fining the core to pop it right before the sip turns to dust
    but then the "punish players for popping the core to prevent self destruct" is oxymoronic as you just encouraged us to pop the core to stop self destruct then punish us for having a life and not salvaging the ENTIRE ship before logoff
    please just remove the instant removal of dead CV's upon logoff
    some of us enjoy the idea of destroying the pirates or the zirax utterly and taking their blocks to make more bullets to destroy more of them
    but with no "auto salvage turrets"(multi-turrets are stupidly manual-only even in space where the SI quirk doesn't matter) and the unforgiving despawns we have no reason to fight the NPC cv's beyond faction rank raising and then the only goal is to pop the core of ANY matching type so we won't fight the [Pir] dreadnaught when the smaller ones with no shield are easier
