Explosion without warning - eigos - 01-17-2012

Okay, I submitted a similar thing in Lorraine in my previous report. It received a ticket number and is being looked at.

But here we are, same stuff happened in Munich. As I was flying away from the little green sun, didnt trust the auto pilot, got a HEIMDAL in my hold...and away...and away around the sun....and suddenly SPLAT.

I guess this only happens when I loot a codegun. But my gaian wildlife on my slave liner was roasted as well. How is this possible? I was flying AWAY from the sun. But appearantly not away from my destiny...

Please test this.

How far away you were from the sun (at minimum range)?

I know there used to be a random death spot in the upper middle area, but I thought it was fixed. Was it the upper middle area?

Autopilot really screws you up in Munich. Don't trust it. Other places to avoid flying in autopilot mode: omega-11.

Sounds like a misplaced planet-atmosphere zone.
Exact place of explosion would probably be helpfull.

Found something similar in T39, which should be fixed now.

' Wrote:How far away you were from the sun (at minimum range)?

I think around 15k

Yes, it was! I made waypoints to avoid the sun at all costs and splattered in mid-space...nothing there, no warning.

Have to make a CSV when I get home to test where the splattering occurs. Just like in Lorraine....

Previous one was a sun corona in Lorraine as I recall, not a misaligned planet deathsphere. I expect this one to be the same - a sun corona that is bigger then the sun corona warning sound (the damage is a zone, the warning is a radius around the star object, the zone must be smaller then the star or you go splat before being warned).

Using F2 to head somewhere should keep you safe. Goto and dock autonav avoid high damage zones.

Munich's little sun can insta a Destroyer from like 10k away. I know this cause I used to trap RNC's over there:D

I was using waypoints and F2, the autopilot didnt avoid nothing.

I turn up the speakers, start reading a book, then after 2min i hear '‚¬%&@#¤ POOF BOOM, SPLATTER-SHMATTER, YABBA-DABBA-DOOO~, MAN!!!

That was the biggest emotional stress I had in days, as I saw my turrets saying "yee, we are free!" and continued their journey towards Augsburg in nirvana without me.

My turrets had a story to tell and my slave liner didnt survive to hear it. Im sure they are still flying on their own as we speak.

Seeing all this, as unexpected as it was, right when I was reading a book, resulted in me staring at the monitor for 5 minutes, thinking about starfliers and their relationships with Nova torpedos.

EDIT: Oh and by the way - I could feel the pure disapointment that the HEIMDAL i picked up had for me. If it could talk, it would sound something like this: You dumb, brainless motherf.... I hate you.
