Items in player owned structures

Are items stored in player owned structures safe in highsec, no matter what ?
I’ve asked AI but it seems to give me contradicting info.
Are the items of manufactoring (blueprints, output) , science and reactions safe ? What about the jump clones ?
If i rent a office for my corporation in a 0.0 ISK station, can i ever lose my items (in a private corp with only me) ?

I don’t play in highsec, much, any more, but I imagine it’s like lowsec structures, in which case the items in your hangers are only safe in the structure is fueled, if the owner stops fueling it then it will go “Abandoned” and when it is destroyed the items in the hangers will drop in space rather than going to asset safety.

You should get in game mails if it stops being fueled.

There’s also issues with materials and blueprints which are currently in use, at the time the structure is destroyed, but I can’t recall the specifics.

Can i know if a structure is curentlly abandoned ?
I am guessing i get the email if i am curentlly renting an office there ?
If it is abandoned /not fueled do i still get the option to rent office, use manufactoring, research etc ?

Yes you can look at a structure and see if it is abandoned.
I’m not sure if you can tell from the next system if you don’t have an office, but maybe there’s a way.
For unfueled structures certain services will cease:

For abandoned ones, even more services cease

items are only really safe in a NPC station, not a player structure.

Not really safe. Two things I’ve run into.

The owners can deny other people access to the station that was previously open to them and anything left in it will be inaccessible (not stolen, just not accessible by you anymore). I’ve run into that. The station owners got angry with our alliance and it took some sweet talking to get them to play nice again.

I have actually seen the aftermath of a station that destructed in a 0.6 sec system. Long trip, needed a good stop so I could afk to bio, picked a random system, bookmarked a station, flew there and no station but a massive number of containers everywhere. Had to fly on and hold it a bit longer.

No.

Don’t trust the clankers.

Any jobs that aren’t delivered before the manufacturing service module goes offline will drop the materials/finished product and the BPCs. BPOs will go to asset safety unless the structure is abandoned.

You can manually trigger asset safety if you get locked out. You can lose your stuff if the structure goes abandoned though.

You’ve never seen a station blow up lol. Stations are NPC. You’ve seen structures go up in smoke but not stations

Speaking from experience, I owned a station for almost one year in HS Tsuguwa system. The owner of the station can grant or deny access to all sorts of areas. Docking access can be a list of individuals, members of a corp, or public. Should the station in HS be destroyed all items belonging to the individuals are sent to asset safety in 7 days and can be retrieved from the nearest NPC station. IF the owner is a real dick ( very few are ) can shutdown docking access, remove modules taking the station offline. Should the abandoned station explode all the stuff will drop out in space.

If they properly decommission the station, you have 1 week to pick up your stuff or it will go into asset safety. Player stations in outside of HS don’t get asset safety, should ( or when ) the station explodes, everyone loses except those who get the loot that drops.

The benefits of making any player owned station your home are;

  • Space tether allows your ship to be repaired outside free of charge.
  • Free repairs inside the station.
  • Owners can set the cost of office rent, module used ( clone bay ), and taxes on services.
  • Exterior cargo drops, no need to dock to unload your ship.

The disadvantages are few and mostly hinge on the owner’s agenda. Some well known stations in null and J space ( wormholes ) can be found and are protected by alliances. However even a large corp ( Pandemic Horde ) can be mismanaged as we all witnessed this past year.

BRUCE mining school was a free port with 50K office rent and jump clones. I mined the ISK to pay for fueling it, never asking or begging for help. One day it was no longer there. I start college this fall and assuming I can juggle work, school, and this game, I still plan to rebuild it in Tsuguwa.

Mine Safe :pick:

Seriously? I just stated above STATIONS ARE NOT OWNED BY PLAYERS.

The term is STRUCTURES.

This is wrong anyway.

All structures EXCEPT wormholes asset safety loot upon explosion UNLESS its abandoned.

That is just being picky. I suppose you would tell me the trunk of my car is a boot and the hood is a bonnet. lol

Ok thank you for that correction.

That is CCPs definitions. If its a station its an NPC station. If its player made, its a structure.

Well, some call them Citadells or just Cita :wink:
But yes, your stuff is not safe there for eternity.
