Destoyed by station for no apparent reason

Hi, for once I managed to make a few bucks with 2 or three trades. I was heading out of Gidzenko Ring targetting another system. Then suddenly my ship was destoyed by Gidzenko Ring. There was no warning, nothing wrong that I did (to my knowledge), I just got destroyed and lost the poor progression I made so far with great sweat. Honestly I do not get the point of frustrating players like this. It took me hours to properly dock and make a few trades and now I get destroyed for no reason. Is there a way out of frustration with this game I am not sure?

Developers, please at least put up some information of WHY we are destroyed like this so we can learn and not get into the same mistakes over and over again.

I think if you had left the station the most likely thing is getting caught in crossfire between the station and someone else. It only takes a couple of hits as their weapons are very powerful.

You probably got EXTREMELY unlucky and the station started attacking someone else and you just happened to be in the way. (Literally, Feds/Cops and Stations don't seem to give a flying .... if you're in the way.)

Might not of been destroyed by Gun Fire.

I was on my way into a station on a trade run, got a bit showy and decided to fly in nice and close.

Flew between the big Solar Array on the Orbis Starports i think it is and hit an invisible collision object =(

Bother.

I was destroyed in this way at Cleve Hub. It definitely wasn't crossfire as the station went red as I launched and they said how I was a criminal and they were going to kill me. They'd let me dock and I was totally clean. Filed a bug ticket for that one already. It's only happened the once, luckily.

Ive been hit in crossfire and even with 4pips on shields (for when I rattle around the entrance) I took serious hits. Was at 43% from 100% and only caught one or two.

I wish there was a viewing gallery to watch people getting battered by the station. Some I've been in have turned into a serious war zone.

Ok thanks for your reports guys, I feel less alone :)
However if developers read this, please do add some information about why we are being destroyed this way because this is no nice to get destroyed, loose al the cargo and go into some more debt without knowing what happened.

It certainly highlights the necessity of insurance; another factor could be holding Explosives as cargo, one bump can turn you into space dust. It 'would' be nice if they had some kind of damage log that told you why you were initially targeted, in the case of NPC's.

Either way, my sympathies - hopefully something for the next patch or 3 since it sounds a somewhat common bug.

My Asp has been destroyed at the entrance of Hornby Terminal at Witchhaul.
Hull and shield were at 100%.
Silent mode was not turned on.
There was no sign of combat.
There was no ships around.
Docking request was granted.
Plenty of time to land.
Reputation was neutral.

It sucks because I couldn't afford to pay the insurance back. So many hours lost because of a bug, it's really annoying. I hope the support will react.
