Fleet ships can be lost permanently

[GorillaGD]

Before I forget, there was a bug I experienced that forced me to reload to an earlier save where one of my ships I assigned to my fleet was permanently lost both while I was in Heimdall and later when I fast traveled. Seems moving to a different area while a fleet ship is incapacitated can result in you losing it permanently as it even disappears from your ship list.

Sorry to hear that!

Two things to help us investigate:

Do you have a save before and after the disappearance?

Can you post your plugins.txt?

Unfortunately I've since deleted the saves that had that issue, but I can probably try to recreate it. Not sure where the plugins.txt file is

I actually just did a post last night about finding plugins.txt, so can paste that easy!

"hitting the Windows key and typing %userprofile%, pushing enter, and then navigating to the subfolders: AppData\Local\Starfield"

Hmm, I'm not seeing that file in there, I wonder if Mod Organizer or SFSE might have moved the file elsewhere. Anyways, I wasn't able to reproduce the bug, but as far I know, it might be tied to how the ships sometimes crashes into space stations

Hi there. Unfortunately there's a vanilla bug preventing ships from being made unkillable reliably. It is likely your ships are dead. We're reaching out to Bethesda for support for this issue, so hopefully they're able to work this out on their end.

Okay, thank you for the clarification! Hopefully people will do what I've been doing by monitoring their ship list and have a save backup ready in case this happen
