Strange events in Sol, Abraham Lincoln

Just witnessed destruction of several ships (of all kinds) INSIDE Abraham Lincoln... Ships appearing in waves of 5-6 and just "loitering" above, standing still. After several minutes, station fixed laser guns start firing at one, then the next, destroying the lot >>> piles of junk floating around ! Watched at least 4 waves then got bored and retreated inside hangar... Although my Sidewinder 'Harsh Mistress' was not hit by debris, got lucky somehow ;)

That is in open game and seems to carry on. I'll have to read the news tomorrow !
Anyone around, take a look, traffic was still open, a bit difficult to avoid the floating remains maybe :D

Proof of these events, July 20, 3301

Didn't see any report about this, any FrontierLeaks investigating ?

Yay

I think we found where "bitshen Betty" the drunken pad allocator from Beta is now working

For those not in Beta she used to cancel your docking permission as you where about to land and allocate a new pad at the other end of the station - and then do it again .....and again

I see that in many stations. I've never caught it "on camera", though - just see the wreckage when I depart. Cool photos, Commander!
 
Yeah that happened all the time in 1.2. Was supposed to be fixed. Quite funny if you stayed in the hanger for 10 minutes, you'd end up with wrecked ship hull fragments floating round everywhere, occasionally colliding with your ship on the landing pad. Good times!
 
I once let the game run all night when docked at a luxury station (the one with white interiors so the wreckage is easier to spot). Next morning all the gaps between pads were filled with debris and the graphics had slowed down to 0.5 FPS.
