Does FDev care about botting?

[Jane Turner]

That's a heck of an accusation to make

That there are accounts shown in the AOS report on botting in Elite Dangerous currently passing through the systems we think there be something fishy happening in is a verifiable fact. That they are bots, is of course not possible to know.

May we see this report?

Uhh, why not provide DA with an expansion plan? Seems like they know how to BGS, isn't that what you're after anyway?

We did exactly that on a number of occasions But as I said this isn't the time or the place.

Hello everyone,

This thread was passed onto us from the forum team.

Automation is not permitted in Elite, we class automation as more than one action in game per button press, this includes fleet carrier automation.

If you suspect that automation is being utilised in specific systems, or you think a specific user is using automation, please report that to us here. We can then forward on your report to our anti cheating for them to look into.

Alternatively if you know the commander name of the account you suspect, you can submit an in game report and that will go straight to the anti cheating team.
