Yay. I can get back to my express delivery run. Patch re-enabled it .

Less than 24h between patches, 8 bugs fixed in the mean time.

Wube is working at 3 bugs per hour on average, is that megabase-level yet ?

Thanks for the quick work devs, really appreciate it.

Heh, just watched a Nilaus video and he called this bug out.

Also said it'd be fixed soon and here it is.

I appreciate that this also re-enabled achievements for pre-2.1.13 saves that had been played and overridden since then.

The damage asteroids deal to a stationary ship has been nerved in the 2.1.13 version and should persist on version 2.1.14
But I just realized today that a single asteroid oneshot a thruster on my stationary ship.
This happened 4 times so it was not just a one-off. (3 times in the orbit of fulgora and 1 time in the orbit of vulcanos)
It also destroyed a pipe segment and the underlying platform in 1 hit when stationary.
I don't know the damage values but this seems still a bit high unless i experienced a bug.

Does anyone else have a similar experience to that or is that intended behaviour so I have to fully defend my ships from all sides?

And big thanks for the recycling change so concrete isn't an absolute hell to deal with on fulgora

There have been a handful of times after letting a fleet of about 20 well-protected (i.e. protected with rocket and gun turrets even from the back) cargo delivery platforms do their job for about an hour or two (afk) and I come back and I see a corner of a single platform got notched. It was never enough for me to investigate a full-blown investigation as to what could have possibly happened, but this does happen even with platforms that are defended, at least for me. I wouldn't dare let a cargo platform be docked at a planet without some turrets defending the thrusters.

Well, my ships are in orbit over non-nauvis planets for about 1min and have a lot of repair packs on board, so i thought it was save if the asteroid did only some damage and not just onehit the thruster.
And in-flight protection from the back is not needed.
But i guess i just have to redesign them all now.
