Ok

This is not a rant or rave or rage quit, but a serious point of interest to all and any miners out there.

Since the new patch and the fact you now get carriers and the such in belts, they do attack and kill any ship including any mining vessels.

Not only that I have had to re check all my setting in the overview as they do not show as RED but white

Because these stay in system until destroyed then it is a major problem to any one hoping to do any mining in any belt if these are about.

As stated please do not take this as a rant but it will have consequences to the mining industry if they destroy all the mining vessels.

Always check overview settings when new ships/npc's are added.

Fixed that for you

When you don't know the difference between there, their, and they're, you come across as being so uneducated that your viewpoint can be safely dismissed. The literate is unlikely to learn much from the illiterate.

Stealth addition to the NPC lineup. I had absolutely no idea these NPCs had been added.

They should default to red on the overview.

do the npc caps the op is referring to spawn in wormhole ore sites or only in k-space belts?

I guess there really is a use for the Rorqual after all!

Battle fit it, have everyone fly Procurers/Skiffs and you'll have a nasty composition that can hold its own even against small gangs... and many types of NPCs.

How do I translate those crest API links into readable killmails?

Post with your NPC alt main and not your main main alt!
