NPC AI is currently broken in that they wont try to avoid flying into you (or asteroids in a RES), so docking/undocking can be a bit more dangerous than normal.

WILD BILL CODYYesterday when I quit playing I was Allied with the Federation (took a long time to get), today I start playing with all these red down markers and I am suddenly only friendly with the Federation............Huh?  Am I missing something?   The game plays without me, but hard fought gains should not disappear overnight.  I need to give this game a timeout.

Reputation decay. You're only like five minutes of work from getting back to Allied status though, as it stops right at the very top end of Friendly.

Thank you Nip Nip. I was unaware of this issue, it does explain a lot tho. I usually just laugh off any accidents but this has bugged me because of the time lost and the fact that this isnt the first time it has happened recently. Cheers for the heads up, happy hunting.

I know it sounds a bit wimpey but I have started using an auto docking computer when I do trading or mining, I have never had a problem entering a station in my miner Python full of shinies. It even puts me in a landing queue if there are too many other pilots

Nah Ford, all good advice thanks bud. I`d been using the auto dock and was half way through the letter box when the NPC decided it was a good idea to try and squeeze past me. I didn`t know I`d caused any damage until I was inside and turrets opened up on me the same time the message appeared.
I only saw my arse because it was my drop off point for illegal rares before coming back home to sell everything else.

Anyway, its a new day and I`m putting the rage down to a lack of sleep and energy drink madness.

Lovin` your ship name BTW

I'm a bit lost. I set the game version to the xbox one, but I'm not sure if that results in wings that are pc based being filtered out or not. Is that the case or is there any indication as to whether they play on pc or xbox somewhere in the wing profile that I'm missing?

This setting is rather for information which game version you are playing (for other commanders). But it may be good to add additional wing property and filter them by the game version - I will add it there, good idea. Largest Xbox One wing there is E.X.O now, so you can try them...

Hello all my GT Is dagnaste and I'm looking for someone to help me out this wed. I will be online most of the day. I have a lot of q's about the game and am interested in exo but am still trying to wrap my head around politics and alignments. It's kinda overwhelming. I've been playing for a couple weeks but have ignored certain aspects until I started looking at sol and getting a permit. If anyone will be on I would appreciate some help. Thanks all and fly safe commanders!
