ship explode no reason

Could you have hit silent running button by accident. I did that a few times when I first started playing the game. Each time it led to sever overheating of my ship and then booom.
 
Were you at Lave station? this happened to me as well, heard other ships explode. Created a ticket

It's actually a bug in the frame shift drive. Frontier have offered a free patch at Hutton Orbital in Alpha Centauri.

That's a bit of trolling right there he may have never heard about it
 
Every time my ship explodes its because of bugs. Its never anything caused by my carelessness.

Same for me. Bugs like the walls of space stations being where I was flying, enemies shooting bugs at me like lasers and stuff. Oh and suns being too hot. So many bugs!

Never anything caused by my carelessness.
 
Been doing the same run for the last few days grinding up for a decent ship. Just now, exiting a station - nothing fancy, identical trajectory to every other time I left this place, no boost etc. and boom - I am stuck in the letterbox, nothing I try shifts me, then zap and my T7 and 228 tonnes of Palladium up in smoke courtesy of the letterbox lasers. 4m credits gone on rebuy and lost cargo and 3 hours of my real life wasted. I could swallow making a mistake, or me suffering the consequences of somebody else's mistake, but this is a real er. Going to logout and get my head back together.

The reason why ships are exploding at Lave its because players are griefing the hell out of that area. Shooting people inside the station to make them shoot back with their PDD's, ramming others...etc.

Tickets for losing ships for "no reason" will only waste FD time, most of the time there is a legitimate reason for the explosion and the player just didn't noticed because he was either not looking at the radar or because of the limited canopy view.

Except for those who die inside the hangar or after docking.

That why i suggest that the Cmdr have a good hard think about what actions he had been engaged in before he went Boom... I hope he did and then if he was convinced it was a bug and not his actions or inactions then raising a ticket is not unreasonable option.
 
There are ship-killing bugs, the last patch fixed some.

It is still also possible to trigger station into murdering someone.

Yes it is - far easier to trigger a station into attacking legitimately than to catch a random bug several times IMO.

Had an odd ship loss myself half an hour ago. I was approaching an outpost with my Asp, and about 5 klicks out my ship got suddenly destroyed. I was in solo mode, so no dumbfire dive bombers responsible for that. Bah. :D
