Forsaken Fortress – Coming 26 May

Source? Not seen that in a dev blog or otherwise from CCP

I chatted at length on the help channel the other day and a couple of players were quite insistent that this was the case. I did want to check it though, hence why I asked on here.

Thanks. That’s exactly what I was asking.

Fly safe.

IF THIS IS THE REASON ‘WHY’ YOU NEEDED A NEW MECHANIC TO CLEAN THESE UP:

“For some of these structure deployments, their use may have dwindled over time to the point where they are no longer maintained by their owners. As a result, these forsaken fortresses proliferate in space as ambitions, conflict, and entrepreneurs rise and fall in New Eden.”

I MIGHT HAVE SUGGESTED THAT YOU JUST SIMPLY CHANGED THE DECOMMISSIONING TIME FROM 1 WEEK TO 24 HOURS (UP IN A DAY / DOWN IN A DAY)…

Then people would take stations for granted even more…stations would pop-up and then disappear at an even more annoying rate…

Also, why are you yelling?

hang on, so if you take a container, put all your stuff in it and leave it at the side of the road, you’re telling us you don’t expect it to be looted in a week??

How about instead, you find a self storage unit with CCTV and onsite security who can keep an eye on it?

Same thing here. If you want your stuff safe, pay the rent.

Some structures is space station long time ago and now transfer to fortizar. It appearance keep the space station shape, not as the fortizar shape. Is this kind of structures can be attacked and destory when it become abandoned status?

I have reinforced 2 structures, final reinforcements end in 5 days.
Will this override the structures going into the abandoned state? Or will they become abandoned before the reinforcement timer ends?

I think they will go abandoned as soon as their “jitter” timer finishes…

Hopefully I don’t have to wait another 5 days to pop them.
The structures would have become abandoned tomorrow, being already 7 days since this update.
I wasn’t sure if Id be able to have them destroyed tomorrow or if Id have to wait the full reinforcement timer.

My guess is that the database will be scanned for this setting:

In the update, structures will transition from Low Power to the new Abandoned state if they have not consumed any fuel from service modules for 7 days.

When that is triggered, the “old” timers will be disregarded and the status goes straight to abandoned…

GL! I hope the loot fairies are kind to you!

I hope that is the case.
And thank you! :slight_smile:

So why are structures not going into abandoned state already?

For the initial first 24 hours of this change, there is a random 24 hour gitter…so all time zones are treated equally…

so it is from now till tomorrow downtime structures will start going into abandoned state?

Correct…at random times…then they will go into that state as per normal…this is just for the initial change…

ah cool, thank you for your help

Best of luck…remember you need to WD too…and as of now any LP station WD by you will be be in abandoned mode after the 24hr WD period ends…

GL!
