For more information see here Bug Report Template Build: 3887 Mode: Survival Mode: Single player and dedicated SERVER NAME: NA SEED-ID: Any If applicable: MODIFIED PLAYFIELDS: Both Reproducibility: Always Severity: Minor for SP, major for some servers Type: Patrol vessels Summary: Orbital patrol vessels and freighters do not respawn. Description: Orbital patrol vessels and freighters do not respawn in either single player or multiplayer, regardless of what settings are set in the playfield files or if POI regeneration is enabled. For example, in the spoiler is one of my patrol vessels setups: Spoiler: Code Code: - Name: [Eden_RoguePatrolSpaceT1] Faction: Eden_Drone CountMinMax: [2, 4] Probability: 1 CanNotBeControlledByMasterAI: False FixedMaxSpeed: [20, 80] Mission: SpacePatrol MissionDescription: DelayBetweenRespawnMinMax: [3600, 3600] DelayBeforeSelfDestructionMinMax: [3600, 3600] IsRespawnAfterDestruction: True RadiusMinMax: [6000, 12000] Position: PosXZMinMax: [1000, 5000] PosYMax: 5000 StockDescription: Name: [Eden_RogueDroneSwarmerLaser, Eden_RogueDroneSwarmerIon] AmountMinMax: [20, 30] ExtraMinMax: [0,0] Type: FighterDrone Properties: - Key: AIManMaxPursuitRange Value: 50000 These do not respawn. This isn't a big deal for single player since the galaxy is very large, but for servers especially those running smaller custom scenarios this can mean running out of patrol vessels for players to fight requiring wipes to be set up by the server admins to manually respawn the patrol vessels. In addition to this, I have never heard from anyone else that patrol vessels respawn in the game in any mode or scenario (outside of the official servers). I have never personally seen an orbital patrol vessel or freighter respawn in any previous version of the game. I've only heard that a playfield wipe will bring them back. Steps to Reproduce: 1) Destroy any space vessels in a survival game (default survival or custom scenario, single player or dedicated). 2) The vessel will not respawn after the time set in the playfield files, even after waiting for server restarts, reloading the playfield, etc. Only by using the wipe commands will orbital patrol vessels and freighters respawn.

Can confirm this occurs on Official Servers too. Check for any of the pirate vessels around Lumi or Alpol in Cygnus system, there are no Pirate OPVs at all. I was the one who killed them, like day one when the last server wipe was... in June or something. Same thing with Legacy ships in Legacy space. I don't even know if there ever were any on Official US as someone else got out there before I did. Never saw a single ship. Also, there used to be several Warlord ships in Eris Orbit in Wool System. A Tianlong and an Eternal Torment at least. We killed them and that was that, never to be seen again. The only vessel that respawns is the Tovera in Black Hole as that playfield wipes once a week.
