If loot doesn't drop because it's too big, the only thing that comes to mind is it's a bug. File a bug report. I think something like that is no joking matter. Big loot is one of the most important parts of the EVE economy.

FT Diomedes: "Reaver, sometimes I wonder what you are thinking when you sit down to post."

Frostys Virpio: "We have to give it to him that he does put more effort than the vast majority in his idea but damn does it sometime come out of nowhere."

Hope they'll fix this. I don't shoot structures any more since a while... I recall how utterly boring it was, expecially some 3am CTA to kill some nobody's "illegal POS" 50 jumps away.
If there's not even big loot reward any more I can't find a single "grunt" reason to bother shooting those boring things.

Thank you for your bugreport titled: SMA dont drop ships

The problem you have described is an intended game feature or function, and not a bug.

This is by design, ships are not dropped into space upon the destruction of SMA´s deliberately, as there would be a number of problematic scenarios if this was permitted to occur.


so yea

so yea

"Large loot cases" aren't limited to ships and SMAs. Did they say anything about the rest?

We just need to make more people aware of the problem and I'm sure it will get fixed eventually. Maybe in like 18 months :D.

Doubt we will see a change before CCP declares chapter 13 and disbands in the following 6 months.

POSes, they only affect "a small portion" of players.

Erm, no, this is actually a thing tbh

Wrecks should be separate cans that are the size of whatever was dropped, otherwise, what's the point of the drop?

wreaks are working fine, its when they get salvaged and turned in to normal cans there is a issue

while they are at it, they should just allow you to put fit ships in your cargo of a freighter instead of this awkward work around of courier contracts.


God no, that would be way too easy! Roll


Add real carriers to the game, capable of transporting fit ships WITH pilots in them.

Odyssey: Repacking in POS hangars for modules +1,  but please for other stuff too, especially containers. Make containers openable in POS hangars.

People are stupid.

It used to be that you could blow up a control tower then unanchor all the modules and then go re-anchor it at your own POS and take out the goodies.

I got my first tech 2 BPO this way, and plenty of over really nice things.

Dunno if it's still that way, but it seems to be the smartest way to go about it.

Need stuff moved? Push Industries will handle it. Serving highsec, lowsec and nullsec - and we do it faster and more reliably than anyone else. Ingame channel: PUSHX

Curently if you shoot any thing that can drop any thing above 27k m3, the server eats it and puts it down a black hole of onnomnom, when it gets turned in a can and fails the if cargo above 27k = implod, this is also a issue when some one salvages a carrier wreak, orca wreak, freighter wreak or any thing else that can carry single items above 27k in size.

Make loot cans unlimted in size and player made ejected cargo cans current or some thing.
