too many pirate attacks fix? (sorry if addressed)

[Shrapnel Effect]

Just wondering if Hello Games have noticed the issue at all

It was (mostly) fixed days ago on experimental branch. The patch merges those changes with other on the normal branch.

plz you don`t have a clue unless you come across the bug.

i'm trying!

Go on a planet and get the refiner out with the controller,you cannot move you cannot place it you are frozen.It`s also with other things as well.
The only way out is to press esc on the keyboard yet the mouse works perfect.

i'm sorry i still cannot confirm this... i just placed 3x Medium Refiners in my base on the final planet of Exp 6 using my controller... no problems using the build camera or running my guy around... i don't get it...

That defeats the object if i`m sat on my couch playing the game having to goto my computer all the time just to press esc and use the mouse to do it.
It`s does say full controller support.

i fully understand and agree with you about it being a painful bug... to be sure, too, if you are running any mods, disable them and try again... i read someone earlier saying they were using one that gives 20 words for each knowledge stone instead of one at the time... even an innocuous mod like that may cause problems...

No mods just default game.
I`m not sure why i`m getting this bug then as Experimental Branch was working fine now this new update has brought it back again.

[edit] ok you must have your game still on experimental patch then as i went back to that and its working fine now.
So why has the new update not fixed it then?.

I really don`t want to play it on the Experimental Branch

please don't tell us you are trying to play a save you used on the Experimental branch on normal or expedition... one of the warnings specifically warns against bringing a save back over from Experimental and that it might cause problems...

No its my normal save no Experimental patch installed at all.
I did back up the save before testing the Experimental patch again.

Hence why i said I really don`t want to play it on the Experimental Branch.
[edit] just started a new game just to make sure and it still does it sigh.

They definitely still attack in peaceful systems. I went to an undiscovered one earlier and had a pirate attack spawn immediately after loading into the system. Not a freighter attack, an actual single pirate ship attack. Yawned, destroyed it, landed on the station, did some stuff, launched and bam another pirate attack as soon as I left the station. Destroyed it then double checked the system type and it was tranquil. So, that's not fixed.

No, that is not what is says.

Please note there is the possibility that experimental builds may introduce new issues that haven't been caught in test. We'd like to recommend that all players back up their save files, by making a local copy of the st_[userid] folder found here: %appdata%\HelloGames\NMS\

Note that we don't anticipate any issues here. However, performing your own backups could mean the difference between resuming play immediately, or waiting for the next patch.

If you decide to opt out of experimental and return to the main branch, we strongly recommend resuming from a backed-up save from the main branch, rather than taking an experimental branch save back to main, which may cause unexpected behaviour.

If you choose to opt out of experimental before it merges with main then you should go back to your backup. Once it merges with the main then you can opt out of the next experimental.

Sometimes the experimental branch will make changes to the file structure that the main branch will not be bale to read.

[i do games]

i switched to Experimental (following the instructions in the pinned post) and haven't been attacked by pirates a single time in 5~ hours, in places i was previously spammed by attacks.

they did it, its been fixed. god bless Hello Game
