Greetings. Its been quite some time last time I really was playing Discovery. Means actually logging more than like 2 minutes. Just yesterday got somehow inspired to log and fly around. And I did noticed that my screen was lagging inside asteroids. I somehow suspected it may be problem with .ini file but I havent been playing with it for like 5 years or so last time I tired to make some mod work. I reinstalled Disco severall times after that. So I have suspected the Dev team increased the number of asterouids ingame files or something else. It doesnt makes sense for me to tinker with mining because I dont even have a mining ship as you can see. I find this really wierd that my .ini file is changed.
Do I need to reinstall Discovery? I have my current game folder since 26th january 2017. Have there been an updates lately that requires the game to be reinstalled? Due to my long vacation I might have missed it on the forums.
Please re-install your game fully (after backing up your characters, of course) and post here once you do.

However, the issue right now is that you are telling us that you have not played for so long, but your character has been logging during 26th of january, 07 of March, 30th of March and 23rd of April. As for your suspicion that the devs have increased the amount in the files, we are having a hard time to beleive they have set the value to 31 from 1.
As for you not having a mining ship, what about your Annapurna by the name of Stream? Or the mining-turreted Andron, your Kestrel?
This detection is recent, your files have been modified recently.

Oh.... It seems I get it. My father have been playing on my PC while I was on work. I clearly remember he loved to call his miners after his Honda Stream car. And Andron is one of his favourite nicknames in games. Guess I'll have to have a word with my "dad"...
So I've talked with father about the issue. From what he have said he have tweaked the .ini file to do some mining on some Russian server and used my PC as miner and his own to fly on transport. Sorta cheating but not on Discovery server so shouldnt be a problem. Problem is that he have forgot to change the .ini file back as it seems. I dont know if he have used the same procedure on Discovery or not, he only have spoken about Russian server. He was saying, however, that I shoulnt have got banned for this because he knows some people who often tweaked their .ini file to do some mining. I explained to him that this is pretty much cheating but he continued on "If this is a cheat the server would have kicked you automatically". You probably can understand how stubborn fathers can be, so I havent interrogated him further.
In any event, I do not and did not had access to any of his ships. The ships which you are banned havent gained a single credit from his cheating mining. Means that I personally havent got any profit from his actions. So if you have wanted to punish a cheater, you've picked wrong ships to ban. Now I know if you have decided to keep me banned there is nothing I can do about it. But all I've said is truth. This is too low for me to cheat, especially after all the roleplay I've done in the past years, proving myself a good member of the community. But I hope you are reasonable folks.
