FDl trashed twice in Med RED, for no assults ect.

[Sneakyprawn]

Need help with this, my FDL had been trashed twice in a med REs for no reason, not assaulted anyone, worked alongside the FEDs, and all of a sudden I get swarmed, and killed rapid, when I buy my ship back, I check the system, no bounty on me nor a dormant or even a fine.

When I have shot another ship by mistake as they have passed my line of fire, I get an assault warning and fine, the FEDs fire on me but I can norm run in the FDL, but these to times, no warning and I get wiped out.

7.4 million I have lost I not a super pilot but not crap, this is strange as there are now bounty on me dormant or the like after my ship dies,



What is going on.

Any ideas......

What's a med RED?

After you are defeated you will no longer have a Bounty, nor a Fine. You have to keep an eye on your right hand status panel to know if you are wanted, before they dust you.

Actually, if you're destroyed with a bounty (I'm assuming a 400 credit friendly fire thing here), then you will re-spawn with a dormant bounty. It's possible that the timer on those bounties is so short it will have expired by the time the OP get's his ship back, but if he docks in the system where he got destroyed, he should see a legacy fine by looking in contacts in starport services.

Either that or he suddenly became hostile, but don't know if that will cause system security to attack, if that is what he is saying... But I suspect it's a bit of friendly fire.

I was asking for help and advise, and you pull me up on a spelling error, here's one.............OMG.

Hi,


Thanks for the replies.

I was minding my own business doing a bit of bounty hunting, helping the FEDS dust the bad guys, as far as I am aware no friendly fire was exchanged, heard the horrid words "under attack" and no kidding 10-15 seconds later I was toast, from a viper mk3 whom I had scanned, but went after the wanted python, after the python was dealt with, the viper was the only wanted target.

I have a couple of dormant bounties, but not using those systems until turn into fines, as I made that mistake before, had dormant went into system even though panel didn't say wanted, the police scanned me, picked up I had a dormant bounty in there system and fired on me.

Just read the newsletter now, seems there is a bug with NPC's having super weapons and is being looked into, Zac quotes Railguns with the fire rate of pulse lasers..............

I have parked my FDL for now until the bug fix comes out.

Thanks again for replies,

I don't think it's a bug. I think it's one of those 'unintended consequences' things.
In the past you would get a 5 minute 3-400cr bounty for a stray shot or two. It was a bit inconsistent, sometimes a few stray shots would get a 'watch where you are shooting' warning other times it was the bounty and you'd have to run away, high wake out and then return when your bounty had expired a few minutes later.
With the beefed up security you get the same bounty.... followed by a rebuy screen a few seconds later because the SA ships immediately ganked you.

The bug fix you are talking about is already applied.

There are 2 things that could have happened, either you fired on a ship before your scan had finished, or you accidentally hit a police ship. Both of these give you a small bounty and make you fair game for the local authority to attack. These have been beefed up hugely to try and prevent Pking.

I personally think their response should be much more gradred on the bounty on your head with 400 getting you a telling off and 10,000+ making you really regret it, with a PK giving a bounty of 100,000 ish.

With the beefed up security your best bet is to be much more careful with your trigger finger.
