No, your ships are handled by the shipyard

ANNOUNCEMENT Fleet Carriers - Content Reveal Recap
- Thread starter Stephen Benedetti
- Start date
(assuming you buy one)
The only thing I would like to know is if NPCs can also land on the carriers? If not, then I don't see carriers being able to produce enough passive income to be self-sufficient or even profitable.
How about all those systems even a single jump Anaconda can't reach?
It's a beta, suicidewinder back to the bubble
How fast can you mine 500t of anything?
who's talking about mining? talks about setting goals ... getting to a certain distant location ... 40 hours to go to colony? must be good for you
I was being facetious, but for huge bulk trading I could see it happening.
First off, I'd like to say that Fleet Carriers look amazing and I think they'll be a super-fun addition to the galaxy.
With that out of the way, I'm deeply, deeply disappointed at the lack of any thought put into the PVP player-base in the design of fleet carriers.
A fleet carrier could have had so much potential for PVP gameplay. And the carriers as they are now seem to be entirely focused on PVE mechanics. Aside from "allow/disallow notorious commanders from docking" there is nothing that creates incentives for a PVP player for purchase a carrier. A mobile shipyard perhaps? That's about it.

Why can we sell combat vouchers at the FC but NOT exploration data?
Where is the logic in that??!?!?!?!
PLEASE Frontier, for the love of all that is Holy, reconsider and add Universal Cartographics to the Fleet Carriers.
Without UC this huge new feature you spent two years developing is WORTHLESS to a very large segment of your players.
PLEASE RECONSIDER.

What's a focus group?
I agree. Stellar cartographics should be on there as a purchasable option, but the money you get from it is only a cut.
I have seen that you can sell codex vouchers, the only way to make that work is if there are going to be much more stuff to find on planets. Maybe not this update, but the one after.
Park one near a mining hotspot and purchase the commodity. Then fly across the Bubble to sell them at a profit.
Seconded. At minimum there should be options for players to attack a FC (when in open-mode). An incoming wave of NPCs, Thargoids vs the FC would be epic.
Good question. I'm wondering about that as well.
Otherwise I'm really looking forward to this one. Great stuff.
Well, that's an obvious way to use them, but I would also like the possibility to park them somewhere and offer services that would make me passive profit instead while I do other stuff than mining.
Only the carrier owner can store cargo, just like how you transfer materials from your SRV to your ship
I dunno... Who's talking about mining?
the support vessels were cut. See above.
They said no multiples times on stream and in chat. FC are completely separated from all NPC endaveour.
...NPC buy limitied amount too, so if u have 25000 of LTD ...u will not be able to sell it once ... also other commanders may have FCes there too
