    Got you to click (retard), now vote.

    Do you feel that salvager ships mining stuff absolutely destroys server stability? Decently large servers like Elwyn and Hyper-Core are experiencing such issues. Players are dropping like flies. If you're an admin and have server logs that can back this up, say something in a reply (or say something anyways I don't care). I know when I mine with a small-medium sized salvager on a planet everyone whines and pings shoot through the roof.

    its in alpha shut up!


    I've confirmed with personal experience and other players that it's affecting every server, not just HC/EE

    When people are encouraged to build world eaters to do things, yeah, it becomes a problem.

    Schema will fix. Pls no whine :D

    Like I said, small-medium salvagers will do it too.

    Schema knows that my concerned whining is how I show my love.

    This, along with the issue of massive pings with lots of players is on the tracker, and I actually poked skooma about it a couple of days ago

    therimmer96 Wait, what? He's working on it AFTER the gui, which is taking a bloody long while in itself, probably not coming out until Feb? I get it's a small team, working hard etc etc but this is a mental bug, total killer. It need work ASAP!

    Yep, I know, but perhaps he was working on the GUI before the bug was posted, and wants it done so I can focus solely on fixing it.

    But yeah, we need the fix already

    1 medium sized salvager on a damn stable, not overpopulated server. Fires salvagers once, everyone dc's.

    Yes, this is a big bloody issue.

    Can't say i experienced this.
    Salvaging did cause some lags sometimes, but i am playing on a server where the server rules only allow you to only have a salvager that fires a maximum of 40 beams.
    And the admins enforce it. if you get caught using one with more beams they will delete the ship without any further warning.

    I play SP like a babby, yet I have in fact noticed that when I go salvaging I get an increased amount of "server not responding" messages and my CPU fans start to wail. Not as badly as when I get close to a planet, though.

    Yea, it's a sad bug, because we lost a big number of newcomers that got mad at it.

    Not mad at all, what makes you think that? I was just pointing it out.

    What the hell is grey goo? It doesn't seem like my thing
    Command and Conquer and Starcraft had a baby.
    And this baby is from the same guys who birthed Empire at War.

    Its too expensive but I bought it anyway :(

    Petroglyph tried hard... But I'd rather reinstall Command and Conquer 3 + Kane's Wrath to play instead of buying this.
