My Visiting Fleet Carrier in Colony Doesn't Work

I have two accounts
Cmdr 1, Fleet Carrier 1
Cmdr 2, Fleet Carrier 2

Both Fleet Carriers function normal in systems outside of Cmdr 1 Colony. No Issues. Works good

When Fleet Carrier 2 is parked in Cmdr 1's colony system, Cmdr 1 can't visit it. I assume nobody can visit it. It is just not possible.

Trying to visit Fleet Carrier 2 causes an Orange Sidewinder disconnect when Cmdr 1 tries to drop out of supercruise to visit the carrier.
(The Fleet Carrier landing permissions are set to ALL. Which is irreverent. The issue is a game disconnect when dropping from supercruise)

Cant Visit Carrier - Orange Sidewinder.png


I tried numerous things:
  • Rebooting game and computer.
  • Relocating Fleet Carrier #2 to a different location on the system.
  • Relocating Fleet Carrier #2 outside the system, then back into the system.
  • Confirmed Fleet Carrier #2 works good outside the colony system.
  • Cmdr 1 has tried many many times. I just get booted from the game with Orange Sidewinder.

Notice that from Cmdr 2's point of view, everything seems fine. So unless a player has a friend or an alt visiting their carrier they might never notice that nobody can visit.

Anybody else experience this?

Fleet Carrier Owners Beware!

This means a cmdr can place a Fleet Carrier in a system setup as a trading post, but nobody can successfully land on it! There is no way for a cmdr to discover there is an issue with their Fleet Carrier unless they have a friend or an Alt that can test and verify it works okay in the specific parked location.



This issue is in the Issue Tracker here, so I'm not the only one to discover this. It probably won't get much confirmations or upvotes because most commanders won't ever realize this issue exists.

Im also have this - I can't access my alt's fleet carrier when it's in one particular system, but is fine in other systems. So frustrating.
