Well having been on eve since it came out this has me stumped.

POS used to simply shoot back anyone that aggressed it, be that corp mate or enemy.

Now I can't for the the life of me get my own POS to fire back.. Im trying to test a few setups , but i am not able to do it anymore.

Why was this changed?

Doesn't seem to matter were the POS is either, tried in empire, in low and null. All seem to lack the "attack on aggression" option that used to be there.

Setting myself to -10 , changing the settings to attack anything under +10.. doesnt work.

Maybe all the POSes have their Safeties on green.

Did you check the standings drop setting as well?

Cloaking is the closest thing to a "Pause Game" button one can get while in space.

Yes all ticked. Nothing happens since they removed the * shoot on aggression "option. Bleh, stupid idea that was.

Try setting yourself as a Red to your own corp, OR get someone with starbase defense roles and skills and have them do it manually.

Was it purple?

But yeah, forcing the guns to fire will always work vs using automated processes.

Never let a starbase manager awox, things tend to go flying out shields and go boom.

I haven't tried this myself. But check the new intracorp aggression is set to illegal. If so, I bet the POS won't shoot you. Try switching it to "Legal". Then try again.
