Summary0002984: I'm Deep Striking Where?
DescriptionSeveral times in my game I have had a message that I'm deep striking a planet that I haven't even explored yet (can't even see it because I play with hide unexplored planets option). The puzzling part is that I haven't sent any of my ship past the border planets at the time I discover it.

I theorize that the problem is that one of my parasites have given enough damage to enemy ship to reclaim it but not kill it and it retreats to a far away AI world only to get killed by a minor faction and invoking the reclaim effect.

Right now I don't have any proof of this but I will find some if I am able [Oddly I can't use a cheat to see those unexplored planets]. I would like some feed back on if this is actually factual or if other people have also run across their own deep strike loner.

If my theory is correct then it should be easy to fix by inserting the clause of can not reclaim AI ship unless a human player did the killing.

[Edit: It seems that there was no threatening force on the AI planet, the ship seems to just spontaneously switch to my side. Its quite baffling and problematic.]

Maybe a Maw ate your ship and took it on a cruise through the rear AI territories?

ive had this happen as well and it explores a system 8to 9 jumps deep and instakills the ship in question and triggers the message. not ssure if it triggers a attack but i think it does.

No Maws in my game, I have enemy EtherJets and TractorPlatforms but the ships that appear would have been targeted and killed long before being brought that far.

Its the hidden minor faction "lepracons"(correct spelling!), making a run for the pot of gold :)
(I would find it funny if Chris now comes around the corner saying he implemented that as a feature in the 'hide unexplored planets' option and its all working as intended .. it really makes you look left and right, where ever you cant go :D)

Oddly I haven't had this happen for a while, I think and hope that the offending AI ships have been recruited into a cross planet attack.

Hmm -- if you wind up with a way to reproduce, let me know. That is quite annoying if that's happening, I'm sure!

I believed this will be fixed in 5.037

Sorry for it being to vague but I am happy it is fixed now
