No. it's not
Reset combat zone -> back to the station
- Thread starter Vandaahl
- Start date
I thought it was a "Fix" to being able do one ground combat zone after another by logging out. And this will make us travel back and forth as intended. Adding a whole lot of time to the grind (which sucks ass).
Running out 500 meters to you ship is less horrible than flying back and forth each time. Good catch.

It's still dumb, but anyway better than finding yourself at the station...
However, if your game crashes - and EDO does crash way more than Horizons - ... now the full dumbness of it (bug or intended) is fully revealed
Hopefully it's a bug, but with the way they're fixing bugs lately (the PWS bug introduced in U12 is still not fixed) - aka possibly in the next patch, or in the next-next patch, it may take half a year or more till they fix it.

Well then I guess we'll just have to file support tickets to be reunited with our ships every time it happens, to give a bit of extra motivation.
Relogging in your srv still works, but when you die in the field, it will self destruct.
It won't be gone though. When I got back to my ship in the end and wanted to buy a new one, I was surprised to see I couldn't.
So as long as you don't die, I use the srv, park it on the landing pad and respawn there. When I do, I run outside the settlement boundary and reload there.

Well, ugh. I do not like this change.
Also, before the latest update, I was getting around 50fps in GCZs, now I'm getting around 30fps. Anyone else's performance drop with this update?

Same settlement?
I did a GCZ yesterday and while my performance was still bad, I couldn't say it got worse for me.
This is not an issue only with ground CZs. I have exited the game while on foot in a settlement and the next day when I logged on, I was over 200 LY from my previous location and my ship. Spawned stranded on the concourse of the last station I docked to and forced to do a ship transfer. Extremely annoying.
EDIT: I have checked the settlement in question and noticed that it switched the state to war and it was now an active CZ. I guess I was unlucky enough to have it change the state on the tick during which I was offline. Thus this is probably still related to the same CZ issue - but you do not need to even participate in the CZ, it's obviously enough to just BE at an active CZ for the game to boop you out on next log.

Could you have taken an Apex taxi/shuttle to that body and then recalled your ship?
SInce it was over 200 ly away, it was out of shuttle range. I would have to do a taxi ride several times. It's an equally annoying alternative.
I guess stopping at a station/port in the system where the settlement is first could be a good workaround, which shouldn't be necessary. But mitigating risk is better than no option. At least then you're much much closer.
Does docking at another settlement in the same system also work?
It doesn't help much if the station is an outpost without a shipyard for transfers. And that makes this issue so much worse - any war in a system with only outpost stations requires you to fly your own ship to the ground conflict zones because Frontline Solutions isn't present.
But if you can apex to another settlement on the same body, you should be able to recall your ship.
Apparently, this was an intended change:
Then they must fix all other instances where relogging can be abused. Fair should be fair.
An "intended change" that can transport you across the galaxy without a ship, just for closing the game? I think the support rep didn't fully understand the question they were answering.
and they wonder why many people stop playing the game, why is it? It's a simulator, ok, but the relogging was from Day 1, if so much is said that the game wasn't made with that, why didn't they cast it from the day 1?, it's a pain to go up and down to catch 4 objects, like taking a damn taxi to the conflict zones, frontier being frontier nothing new, if it wasn't for the thargoids I would have left the game a long time ago
That's if they teleport you back to the correct station. My friend got randomly teleported to a system he's never been before 200 ly away (without his ship).Especially great when the game crashes.
I liked the "we didn't make any changes, however we made some changes".
Anyway, I can live with that. Take Apex to a CZ, run outside the zone to relog and when I'm done, I teleport back to the station.
