Asteroids no longer on radar

May 24, 2021 IronLord link
What happened?: while afk mining for 9 hours I awoke to all the asteroids no longer on my radar, I was still mining the one i I had been before I fell asleep, but I stopped and tried to re target it. To no avail. Every asteroid in the sector (i-4) suddenly become unminable and untargetable.

How did I do this?

I went to a sector, picked a asteroid and started mining before bed. I set my goli to "patrol" beforehand, then I locked my screen (my device has a lock feature where it keeps whatevers on screen active but keep power drain low), then I slept 9 hours (as mentioned above) until I woke to the bug at hand. None of the ore existed that had been mined, except for 40-50 ore.

What device were you using to do this?
Samsung galaxy s20 ultra. The lock mechanic is in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Do you have examples? I do. But I unfortunately do not know how to show them on the website but am more then willing to send screenshot on discord.

Seems like a good way to get yourself marked as a bot too, as AFK mining is frowned upon (AFK anything seems to be these days, see https://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/2/36903 ) ! Could be that the system has flagged you as a bot, and restricted your radar (like it now does to spybots); feature not bug. It also gets worse not better - as if you continue to do this you may end up in the situation I was in a few months ago, where just playing was an actual problem - constant CAPTCHA is waaaay more annoying!

With that said, If you upload your images to somewhere like imgur, then right click (or long press on mobile) on the image after upload (on the web page you uploaded it to) and choose "copy image location" or "copy image address" and paste that between some [ img] [ /img] tags (for example: [ img]https://example.pic/name_of_pic.jpg[ /img] ) then the image will show in the post.

Of course, you can just upload it to somewhere, and post a link to that page too. This way it wont show in the post, but we can still see it by clicking.
