I have had this happen too, usually while traveling long distance.


I haveneverhad it poof away while riding it for no reason, howeverI have gotten the "vehicle disabled" message and it took me aways further before poofing away under me, but even then when Igenerated it in a camp it was not disabled just 1/2 health.


I have seen my swoop drive away through a shuttle port "wall/support beam" after I got off it, and then park where I had it a few minutes ago (outside a weapons shop)


I really think over 1/2 the disappearences where the vehiclesare not auto stored they are returning to the spot wherewe got on them.

Addition...


I have found if the ground that your bike is resting on is greatly raised (from disbanding camp or some lair spawns) the bike is out of range when trying to mount. I repeated this on Dathomir, twice today, I will see if it is 100% repeatable.

I know its OT buts its probably also worth pointing out that my speeder doesnt store 100% of the time

On Ahazi my landspeeder disapears everytime i dismount it. But on Chilastra, my Swoop bike has yet to do anything of the sort.

My swoop disapears all the time, at any time. Frequency has been noticed to increase as distance from nearest town increases. Has not happened yet on a death planet or any planet that doesn't have a garage but the over/under on that happening soon is coming due.

My vehicle (an X34) auto stores almost everythird time I exit it. It usually happens when i'm in a remote area (luckily i always carry at least two camps and can craft one if i'm out). I'm usually in Coronet or Bestine and occasiounally on Talus (on the Kauri server).


If it doesn't auto store I find that it will drive away about 100m (max i think was 180m)from the location where i exit it. This frequently occurs in Coronet.


I'm new to the game so glad to see that i'm not the only one this is happening to.

My vehicle disappears not from under me but if I get off of it outside of someones shop or if I am placing a harvestor.


I guess this is the reason they are allowing up to call pets and vehicles anywhere in the next publish, or so I heard.

My vehicle doesn't disappear out from under me, it goes when i'm in combat. If I walk away from it, and get into a fight, alot of times when I turn around it's gone. I wasting alot of resources on biulding new camp sites everywhere.

It's just too numerous to detail. I always carry a camp kit with me and got novice scout just so I could regenerate the speeder. It isn't *every* time I exit, but often enough that I expect it to be gone when I turn around.

Server: Naritus


Locations: Many different areas on many different worlds.


Event: Vehicle autostore.


Situation: I am a master artisian and nearly master architect, every time I go out surveying on any planet from any city, the first two times I get off my vehicle and click the survey button my vehicle autostores. If I take a shuttle from Moenia, Naboo to Theed, Naboo and go out surveying I loose me vehicle the first two times I get off of it to survey, unless I am in the vacinity of the starport. Which brings up another problem, one time in three that I attempt to store my vehicle near a starport, any starport, it refuses to store, but I can call another copy from the datapad. One time in ten this happens near a shuttleport, and about one time in 50 anywhere else. One other problem with the autostore bug is that when my vehicle refuses to store, say I am out mining by one of my harvesters, my vehicle remains there for hours, unused. If I throw out a camp and call my vehicle from the datapad, it has the same condition as the one that won't go away. I have run through 3 speeder bikes because of this, first it won't store, then it self destructs, and the one in my datapad ends up destroyed as well.

Dont think i'm hearing this correctly... but it seems to happen a lot on the Server: Sunrunner.. On Correlia. I grab Missions from Cornet and head off to the mission.. when the mission is over the vehicle is usually gone.. Sometimes i even see it disappear right before my eyes. Cant quite Pinpoint the exact cause of it. it just happens alot to my friend and I on Correlia. Also...on correlia,try to go into a house and sometimes when you come out of the house the vehicles are gone. Hopefully this will be patched soon... if not they should allow us to generate our vehicles everywhere..

Servers: Eclipse, Shadowfire, Europe-Chimaera


If I go shopping around Theed, Coronet, Bestine, Anchorhead etc on all servers, I can be almost sure my bike is gone when i exit the shop. Heavily populated and laggy plantes like Lok and Dantooineon Eclipse, makes my speeder go poof also. Myartisan on Eclipse has to keep novice scout for camps, since he travels a lot to maintain harvesters.


If I'm driving round far away from populated areas and with little lag, my speeder usually stays put. f.ex Endor on Chimaera, can't remember my bike go poof there.


So it may be combination of lag, and getting off the speeder triggering autostore.
