    This seems to happen if you didn't save a repair template after spawning the ship, causing repair services (and I think repair bays too) to "repair" the entire ship by duplicating it.

    Hi can you supply a copy of the save game please ?
    I just tried a few attempts with some vessels in vanilla & the test scenario & nothing happened.

    How to supply a save game to a report:

    For Steam players:
    For SP or Co-op:

    • Right click on "Empyrion" in your steam library > Properties > Local files > Browse > Saves > Games
    • or: SteamLibrary\steamapps\Common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Saves\Games
    For MP:
    • Right click on "Empyrion - Dedicated Server" in your steam library > Properties > Local files > Browse > Saves > Games
    • or: SteamLibrary\steamapps\Common\Empyrion - Dedicated Server\Saves\Games
    1. Make a note of the name of the save game then navigate to the Saves > Games Folder & right click on the save folder & place your mouse cursor over 'Send to' create a compressed copy of it
    2. Use a file hosting site like mediafire, dropbox or google drive & add a share link to it in your reply
    3. If you are sending us the info via an email please add a share link to the file or files you have uploaded & some details such as a link to your report [email protected]

    I'm seeing a similar / same issue in 1.16 experimental vanilla. Piloting an SV switch camera view to 3rd person and move camera back to see whole ship from behind. After piloting for a few minutes ship ghosts / flickers. In this particular test I moved off Akua into space. Sequential screen shots show ship alternating between 2 positions. I've verified Steam files, cleared Astic mod and see same issue. See attached file. 2 screenshots captured one right after the other.
