(AP) angry argon military titan...

Post by Rurikk82 » Mon, 27. May 13, 08:12

Okay I have an issue I've ran into with AP. I have a random argon military Titan. Attacking my ship and stations. No matter where I build them. And attacks only begin after I start building my own stations. I'm not building and illegal products, have no sector traders running. And no,mater if I validate the game files or start a new game it continues. Any possible solutions or am I just going to have to reinstall?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Try opening communications with that ship and talking to the captain.

Ask him to stand down.
I'll see you on the other side!

Tried that. It just goes hostile again almost immediately.

Check your friend/foe settings maybe?

If that fails, then board it >:3

I would consider that if I had actually bothered to obtain ships capable of doing so. I'm running a completely unmodded game with a humble merchant start. With an emphasis on the merchant. Only have a few freighters. No fighters or capital ships. This seems to happen every new game no matter what start. As soon as I get the funds to build a few stations within an hour or two. Some random argon military capital ship comes to kill my stations. Rather I'm IS or OOS.
Side note I can build the stations in any sector argon or otherwise and still same results. That's what really bugs me about it.

Are you selling illegal wares?

Spaceweed, space fuel, disintegrator rifles and some other items are illegal in certain areas.

They will send in ships to destroy those factories.

Negative. Only selling ore, silicon, meatsteaks and energy cells. Have no illegal wares on any or my ship (installed or in cargo bay.) No laser towers set up arm either. Have no reason whatsoever for anyone to attack my stuff. (Stations or otherwise).

Current friend/foe status is set to all factions to friendly

Was intending to add shield and a few small weapons plants in at a later point. However this starter plex was for cash flow/resource building nothing more.

Don't remember what it was when I got fed up and shut down but just before the single hostile ship showed up I was at "guardian" something or another. Ill be able to check for sure in about 2 hours

That rules out low Argon rep as a cause then- might be handy to transmit global friend/foe status to all reachable properties.

One time in TC I found that some of my ships in the hub sector had been lost in a skirmish with the ATF. After reloading I found that 2 of my M7s had set them to foe (and were set to attack all enemies). You can figure what happened after that :lol:

ok I was correct on the guardian part ... lol "Argon Federation guardian" is full current rep title. I've already did the global settings bit prior to posting this. and manually confirmed it on all ships/stations. everything is set to friends nothing at foe not even pirates. again the part the irritates me most is that it happens every game I start with out fail. And always waits till I put up a station no matter what station or who's space I put it in. its always a Argon military vessel that comes to attack.

I know this must be really frustrating and i hope you get it fixed but... LOL

The image of a single argon capital trolling you across the universe was just what I needed before bed. Cheers.

I had this happen to me one time. the only way I fixed it was I got him to target me and I continued to harass him and drew him into a hostile sector like a Xenon or Terran war front. I let the other ships do the rest.
It's funny because I was argon also.

I tried that. After it was destroyed. About 10 minutes later anorher solo argon military capital shup showed up and began the same process. I just uninstalled/reinstalled. Gonna take me a while to build the credits again for a station or two but we'll see if it happens again probably by the end of this month at the earliest. Thanks for all the tips to try and solve ithe issue without drastic action. Keep you're fingers crossed .

If you used mods in past games, when you uninstall goto the base folder and delete it completely. just incase there is some lingering file that overwrites the installed vanilla ones when installed.
Just to be double sure :)

Have been totally unmoded thus far. Funny thing is I was thinking of getting a few mods when this all went down. Namely the salvage command suite and complex cleaner mods may do that from start this time.

Out of curiosity and I know this is a bit off topic from my original post. Is there any GUI mods out that improve apon the gravadar or would perhaps give me a on screen view of what I have targeted?
