Ships destroyed by weather events
This is getting REALLY REALLY annoying, in Chapter 3 and this is happening every 30 seconds almost. Please reduce the frequency of this event!!!

Also please add a hot key for the avoidance toggle, having to toggle 50 deposits due to space weather moving is not fun :(

Yeah I have to agree, even with the technology to help them not die to weather events I lost 2 ships within 1 minute. The system I am in is almost completely covered in this weather event. It's a shame cause I may not play the game until this is changed a little.

You would think they had radar or something to help them fly around the weather like 20th century aircraft could.

on chapter 3 the weather moves each time you finish a task with a science ship, when you get cornered on the top side get your ships inside and fly to bottom, after a bit all the weather clears and you can travel freely on whole map

Maybe have a look on the map? You can ignore specific targets, so the ships won't fly there.

And as sirnicolas said, the storm is moving after tasks on the map.
move your mainship to the planet what need and your resaerch ships dont get destroed
i move all time on all sektors the mainship to finish quest or get resources it take lower time us wait till the little ships move

A) Don't scan stuff inside the space weather.
B) The space weather moves based on science objectives.
C) If it moves to an area covering the resource you are mining turn off that one.
D) Once you have space on the other side pack your ships up and move.
E) Eventually the storm moves out of the system and you can go back to all the nodes.

Yeah I saw that shortly after this post, haha, it was still a tad annoying to manually have to toggle off 20 deposits without a hotkey.

Thanks for the advice, I shortly found out about the moving weather after posting this, I think thats why I actually lost a bunch of ships because I was in the station building and didnt notice it had moved!

Yeah they really should have added a message from that super helpful and smart AI 😜

I lost most of my fleet as well before realizing the storm had shifted.
