I came across the same at a gate, i was in my pod and boarded that pod, i think the way they do this is use of jump clone...but not sure. I wonder what would happen if you pod killed yourself if you could return to where your pod....is....geez all this physics with all that alternate stringy theory stuff hurts my head.

See this on SISI when people are out in space, when the game database is copied, but they aren't logged in.

ghost ships!

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

This happens sometimes. I once petitioned it, the GM gave me an explanation about why it happens
and i forgot what he said, lol, but it's just a small bug without any consequences for those who
board the pod. I think he said something regarding the self destruct, but the pod not vanishing.

One shouldn't shoot it, though, because that triggers a GCC ... even for an empty pod.

Stupid, stupid bug. What?

I had an empty pod in my possession, which was I know it sounds weird, dear to me. It kept me reminding of some mistakes I had made early on in EVE.

But I moved from where the pod was and for some reason I couldn't take it with me.

After years I went back a month or so ago to pick it up. Couldn't move it in the cargo hold of my freighter Attention didn't want to package it, kept trying to move it in my hangar (the persistence wins) and my mouse got stuck on something on my desk and I moved the pod to the hangar...

Well, at least I no longer have to worry about moving the pod, it just disappeared. Sad

Admit it Chribba.....that was your pod, wasn't it?

You have that guy's Wolf!!!

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

Well, looks like this thread has gone as far as it should. For the OP, things like that crop up from time to time, if you like you can file a bug report on the issue and then the appropriate people can take another look. Failing that try and scoop the pod next time and take it home with you, they make great paperweights and doorstops Big smile
