Thread: Vehicle Issues...
I would like to provide information on this to make your job easier but I'm concerned about unbalancing your profession and making it too easy. You need to work hard and grind sometimes to feel like solving a given bug is a reward. If we were to help you with this it might decrease your job satisfaction and you might wind up going elsewhere.
Got it. Understand. You need to practice patience and diligence. You should be paying to do your job and have it be less and less fun everyday. If I could make you wait 10 minutes at your desk chair everytime you decided to go somewhere and have to setup a tent in the parking lot at work before you could get in your car to go home I would do it. We are playing a game which should be fun and you are doing this exact same kind of stuff to us.
Seriously, how can you expect us to fall all over ourselves tohelp you guys out with this when faced with the constant bugs, wishy washy balance changes, lack of vision, and seeming acceptance of the fact that the best way to balance is to nerf. You have setup an adverserial relationship with the customers...now you get to reap the rewards.
What I have seen is this,
I got to a starport, attempt to store my vehicle. Nothing happens. I go to my destination and take of riding after pulling out my vehicle again.
About 5 minutes later, poof. Seems the original store finally catches up with me.
This only occures when a previous store was unsuccessfull. Last occurance was 12/21 pm.

Vehicle Dissapeared:
1 - I would park it outside a house, then enter. When I came back out it was gone.
2 - Entering a cities boundries, often times it will warp back or just plain go away.
3 - When I stopped over a stretch of water and sat for about 30 seconds it went away
I think there is really some issue with exiting/entering cities boundry areas on vehicles. Doesn't happen all the time but most of the problems I've had are near the edges of cities.

1) Most of my auto-store problems occur when I am not riding the bike. I will step off to check my harvesters or something and turn around and the bike is gone.
2) The radial menu doesn't seem to update correctly. I'm not sure if this is related to the other problems or not, but after I get on the first time I bring up the radial menu it still has "Enter Vehicle". If I open the menu again it correctly says "Exit". The same happens when I get off. The first menu still says "Exit" but after that it correctly says "Enter"
I use a speederbike
Riding to the NW away from Anchorhead, Tatooine about 1000m away the bike disappears from underneath me.
On Corellia, 700m from Agrilat swamps, 1000m from Dauoa Gaueal (whatever =P) in a player city named Agrilat City on Bria server, I tried storing my vehicle and it ghosted.
about 300m to the SW of Lars Homestead, Tatooine, I got off my bike, emptied my resource hopper, turned around, my bike was stolen!!!!! (or autostored ><![]()
This all happened yesterday and the day before. good luck hammering these issues out =)
Riding from the Moenia Mall to my home around Vera Bay (This is on Sunrunner server). Came upon a PC Guild Hall, and as soon as it rendered, my bike disappeared.
At the time the bike was about 50% health and I was moving flat out. (Land was fairly flat). This was about 1K outside Moenia.

Blair, I didn't read all these posts but I'm pretty sure I'm saying the same thing everyone else has. My bike disappears when I'm riding it in the wild sometimes. It ALWAYS disappears when I enter a city. I disappeared one time when I got off to check my harvs.
And for the gold star....sometimes when I get off my bike, it will take off and drive itself around a building or two. I once had to chase it about 80 meters, I would run up to it and it would take off, then I'm run up to it again, and it would run away again.....I swear it was having fun with me. This was hilarious the first time, but enough is enough....
Greets ...
I experienced about 6 auto-stores in the space of 2 hours while checking harvies. I bugged each one.
Several were basic auto-stores where you are riding along and then all of a sudden you are running.
A couple happened whenI got on the vehichle and hit the throttle.
Once it happened while I was being shot at my turrets ... thought the turret destroyed the speeder, but when I cloned the speeder was perfectly fine.
I can find on consistent pattern to this.
I have gone through a crate of camp kits pulling out auto-stored vehichles since launch ... can you temporarily allow us to pull a speeder anywhere till you get this fixed? please? it's rather annoying to deal with this bug with the camp/city/resident restriction.
1) Riding toward Theed last night on my Speederbike. Concurrent with the message "You have entered Theed", my bike disappeared out from under me. It happened at the exact same instant as the message. This timing may or may not be coincidence, as I did not attempt toreproduce it.
2) Parked my speederbike on the cement like doorstep/landing of my small generic house on Corellia which is located about 1k from Coronet. Went inside the house for a few minutes. Exited the house to where the speederbike sat. Used the radial to attemt to /mount it. The speederbike disappeared and my posture changed to the sitting position. So I was sitting on the landing with no speederbike nowhere in sight. Used the datapad to try to get it back and after regenerating it, things were OK.
3) When wandering more than a few meters from my speederbike while in the wilds, it sometimes auto-stores.

i got 2 bugs.
1. I took the shuttle to bestin and when i got there i called my swoop, got on it and went to the med building. when i got off my bike it took off and went back to the shuttleport.
2. it keeps storing
I have also had the problem in the Korvella garage. when I go to repair it is says it can't see the object. Doesn't matter if I am in or out of the vehicle. Didn't try it on the road next to the garage.
I've only had it happen one time but while riding my vehicle I ended up being in the middle of some red Wrix that just appeared and couldn't go around them. They attacked me and pulled me out of the vehicle. It said I had been reduced to kneeling. Luck was on my side, was able to get back in and ride off before being killed. I did do a /bug report on this right after it happened, just wanted to mention it again.
Thanks,
