    Hello Starmade community,

    I am verys sorry for my bad english. But i will try my best.

    We have a good private server with many players. uptime is over 90% and our Voting is nice too.

    After the last patch (StarMade v0.19556) make the pirate stations with the old docking system hard lags, always iff a player is next to a pirate station sector.

    Our admin is fallow the new players all the time and try to delet the pirate station (thats much work). But, if no Admin online and a new player flying long ways in the galaxy, he will load Pirate Stations Sectors and all Player have a ping over 9000.

    My question is: Can we find a way to remove all pirate station from the sever without a reset or without a soft reset. Maybe with a special command or a special work in the server config?

    We dont want to reset the server before the next official starmade patch is coming.

    What Skylord said... but that won't remove the existing ones from your server.

    Try this: /despawn_all "full station name here" all unused true

    We did that, but there are already thousands of pirate stations available. Because the server is very long active already.

    Oke, that can be a danger way to fix the problem on a Server with much Players. Our Pirate stations have a name like "Prate station 172638723" and the next station has the name "prate station 3238231237"
    [DOUBLEPOST=1456173206,1456171766][/DOUBLEPOST]Because the error massage i dont think that works with stations i tryed on a Single player world.

    [ERROR] WARNING: this will delete the entites that start with the given pattern from the database.

    That's okay, you just need to put in the specific type. Like /despawn_all pirate_station_gamma all unused true

    Thanks for Help, our admin said he try out that Command before i ask here in Forum and it dont work for this stations because the Numbers after the name.

    But we fixed the Problem. The Owner of the Server was looking in the Server Logs/fieles and more. He did anything and now we have a good Ping performance without deleat the Pirate Stations or Turrets.

    I will ask our Admin, what did he do and will post again later.

    (sorry for my bad english)

    Our admin said, the server owner fixed something with the Java files oooh i dont know. He has specialist knowledge with Java. Unfortunately, I can not exactly explain. I am very sorry.
