I was thinking about that problem - docking a badly damaged ship in a station with no repair service and being stuck.

Maybe CCP could write some Code into the game to add a 'Remote Repair' icon to the station services in the stations with no repair services.


Its a game bug. If he doesn't get out of his ship, then it still has enough HP to stay in one piece so he should be able to undock. If he tries to leave the ship he should get a message notifying him it will fall apart if he does. ( At least thats what used to happen)

This is weird:

I managed to escape from a fight with just a few HP left on my ship. Unfortunately, I chose to dock at a station that lacked repair facilities. Now, when I try to undock from the station, I am informed that I don't have the skill to fly the craft in that condition. Now what? Somebody in the help channel suggested I fit bulkheads and hull repairers, but that didn't seem to help at all.

Any ideas?

In an interesting twist, I received an email from Pend Insurance regretting the loss of my ship. However, while they did give me an Ibis, they never paided out the policy. Plus, I can still access my ship at the station. It seems to be caught between life and death. Lol

Any help would be appreciated.




buy and fit some armor plates and an armor and hull repper..... the plates will give your ship just enough hp to let u undock and rep your ship (if your ship has 4 low slots then fit 3 plates (as large as your powergrid will allow) and the armor repper)


option 2 is give the ship to a corp mate with an orca if in high sec or carrier if in low sec and have them move it to a station with repair facilities or jettison the ship out into space and remote repair it. - note for the jettison trick to work u will still need those armor plates installed on the damaged ship.

Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs.

Another idea: when your ship is badly damaged and you can't (won't) repair, the game should let you undock, but inform you that their is an X% chance that it will come apart and explode when entering warp. Twisted



what about the minnie ships? that gives them an unfair (maybe) disadvantage Lol

I went ahead and filed a petition...boy, those guys work fast! GM Arcade had me squirted me out of space dock in a matter of minutes so I could head to a repair station. Never filed a petition before but found the whole thing painless and very efficient.

Thanks for all the suggestions (and help, GM)! Cool


Thank you for the kind words, I'll make sure to pass them along. Smile As far as I know, the fix for this particular bug is scheduled to go out in the next patch.



Thanks for the clarification. I bug reported this myself but was told it was an intended game feature. Ugh

Seriously bug reporting is a pain sometimes.
