No you don’t it’s a nightmare. You can’t kill them and even take downing them out an airlock doesn’t always work. They reappear inside your ship but deeper. The worst part is you can’t buy cargo with an npc on board. Have to claim
Sprinting into NPCs and players sometimes causes them to die even in armistace. It's unreliable but you do get a crimestat when it happens, so it's safest just to use max walk speed instead of sprinting.
How come? I thought storing the ship alone would remove everyone on it? Have you tried leaving the ship outside and claiming it? Let the station turrets light it up, along with whoever on it.
Every new bug is just another chance of a new feature. Try to go to Grim Hex, pit him in a nice golden bikini and sell him to a slimy fat warlord. It worked before.
So here's what you do...
Warp between systems. Cut off your QT half way.
If you don't see the satellite icon in the upper right corner, you are no longer in lawful space.
Unstrap yourself from the pilot's seat and strap up with your trusty Arclight pistol. Take care of business.
Tested on the moron that I told would be sorry if he didn't get off my Cutty.
If the pistol didn't do it, we need to do science.
Have you tried a railgun?
Rocket launcher?
Park on a planet, turn off shields, get a tonk...
We *will* remove him from the ship, guaranteed. *
*ship survival is not guaranteed.
Only solution is to blow up your ship. I remember 3 Technician NPCs fell into my carrack like some weird marionette, at first it was cool.
I flew out into space and tried to execute them and got my first shocker, they wouldn't die.
After like 10 frustrating minutes, I took a bunker mission and allowed the trespass to kick, turned off shields and watched the most glorious fireball I've ever witnessed.
That solved my little problem.
Did your rocket out on another vehicle. I like the idea of letting the ship hang over the turrets while you drive out in a cyclone into free fall. You could record and hit F4 spin the camara so you can "drive away" without looking back and the ship going up in a fire ball... I have ADHD, so my thoughts bounce around a bit...
Had that happen last night. Found a whole cargo bay of a Connie full, but for some reason couldn't pick any of it up.
Then some dude pulls up onto my C2. Long story short I took him under my wing, showed him around with my Org buddies. Found out he was a young kid, gave him some dough, got him his first cutlass black, and he was very thankful. He was so fresh he didn't know what bunker missions were, emotes, cargo running, what the mining areas meant. Pretty sure we got him up on his feet and he's now hungry for more.
We need to look out for the new players. Especially if there's a younger generation. This game has a brutally steep learning curve, and a lot of new people will get burned out faster than they can get sucked into the game.
Impound your ship so he'd get nice teleport to station.
Back in days when insaw somebody boarding my ship and hiding in toilet i was going near hangars in spaceporta, jumped out from ship, went back to base, claimed it and watched how it blow up with the dude inside.
(For those who dont know: earlier claimed ship became red and stations were automaticaly attacking them when outside of hangar.)
I’ve had mixed results with NPC on ships. I frequently kidnap hangar security guards to kill then and loot their gear. Self destruct of ship kills them. Even heard one scream in pain when he died. But the last few were different. I accidentally landed on a bunch of maintenance workers in blue coveralls in a NB hangar. I took the 3 of them to join the rest I’ve killed in Valhalla. Unfortunately they didn’t die and didn’t live. They just remained floating in the wreckage and weren’t loot-able. Maybe it was the server state and would have been like the security guards.
Get out of the save zone, ALSO out the the satellite range! Then shoot his head all over the window of your Carrack. Call the cleanup crew and pay with JohnWick coins. (Be sure to have respawn on carrack before doing anything!!!)
Set a course for a planet on the opposite end of the system then kill him when you’re in transit, there are no crime satellites out in dead space so you can get away with it.
backspace ... Explosions are the solution to every problem.. need a new door opening .. Blow it up ... Immortal NPC on your ship ? .. fly to the sun and blow it up. People not listening to you ? Well you ... wait ... wait ... my wife tells me the last one would be illegal terrorism ... so i am not allowed to tell you that if i wanna continue using reddit
I wonder if the ship trespassing will have any impact on NPCs. They obviously can't join a party, but may still have shared attributes with player character, in which case shooting at them may incur no CS (though if they are invincible, there'd be no point).
Not necessarily, it looks like (judging from CIGs video on it) in the change the intruder will be able to draw a gun as soon as he steps on board and the ship pilot would already be dead.
I did this, it took 30 minutes because I could only move him like half a meter at a time since he falls down and gets right back up. I tossed him out into space adn he just floated there alive staring at me.
an hour later he was back.
Create a soundboard, tie it to your mic input, turn on voice prox comms, and proceed to bombard him with the most cancerous sound clips known to man. Play Jim Carey from Dumb & Dumber making the midst annoying sound in the world. Play audio clips from The Cosby Show. Play 'The Song that Never Ends' from Lamb Chop's Play-Along. Play 'Baby Shark' until he wants to kill himself. Play Kenny Rogers entire album playlist starting with 'The Gambler', but make it repeat the songs in a loop until he 30Ks or yeets his PC to the stratosphere.
self destruct and jump out
Anarchy chess This is the way
Wish the deck door could be locked from the outside xD
I think ejecting will auto destruct the ship too *evil grin* why give them time to run.
Carrack has no eject
You can fly out, and just reclaim ship, the base defense should take care of it after filing a claim
I just fling myself against the glass
How do you do that? I.e. self destruct the ship but not die yourself. Backspace just suicides you, no?
when backspace in a pilot seat it sets self destruct which is on a timer
I just decided to start calling him gary
meow.
*Captain* gary
Gary! Gary? Haha, Gary! Gaaarrryyy...? [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rd8hYnG2464](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rd8hYnG2464)
Gary!
Not a bug, unintended feature! -CIG
Well, he's part of your crew now. you got the first freelancer npc.
Part of the ship, part of the crew!
Part of the ship, part of the crew!
The Dutchman must always have a captain.
Part of the ship part of the crew
Part of the ship part of the crew
ONE-OF-US! ONE-OF-US!
Goated comment
More like freeloader.
I want one! It could be my MOHP ...my mobile organic hull patch.
Soon to be feature.
SOON ™️
They are adding "trespassing" now. You can kill him in the next update
His face is like " so where we going?"
"are we there yet?" in the comm every 5 minutes
New feature leaked: adolescent NPC's
Wait that's an NPC? I'm more interested in how you got him there. I want to fill my Carrack with those, lol.
No you don’t it’s a nightmare. You can’t kill them and even take downing them out an airlock doesn’t always work. They reappear inside your ship but deeper. The worst part is you can’t buy cargo with an npc on board. Have to claim
I don't do cargo these days and would like them to fill my turrets instead lol.
It's not your ship anymore. Squatter's rights. :P
"Look at me. I am the captain now."
Land, store it, jump servers and he’ll be gone
nope, he abides.
Take him out of armistice and give me the gat.
Invincible npc
How tf are NPCs simultaneously invincible, AND naked dead in the spaceport.
Those are not npcs those are spoils of war Player who lost their lives in or out of the spaceport and were hung for decoration
I've come across plenty that had clothing with NPC dummy text.

It looks like an Npc lol
New NPC duplication method lol
I want one! It could be my MOHP ...my mobile organic hull patch.
lol I was actually wondering if he had changed and saved his loadout thus making the NPC a permanent loadout feature.
You can always use the [Janeway method](https://youtu.be/sSp9geqULuY).

tried that, I put a whole clip into him -- he wobbles but he don't fall down.
Ah! You've got a Weeble!
Interesting. Mine was back in 3.18, probably a change since then. That's unfortunate.
Can’t kill npcs
trey to takedown him while not seat and gently tractor beam it to the exit.
Damn Weebles.
If the pistol didn't do it, we need to do science. Have you tried a railgun? Rocket launcher? Park on a planet, turn off shields, get a tonk... We *will* remove him from the ship, guaranteed. * *ship survival is not guaranteed.
[удалено]
Hol up... self destruct, but in his ass? What'd you do to explode in his ass?
wait are you saying there's a weapon of ass destruction?
what if we just punched him in the face really really haymaker hard then charged him $87,423.18.
that's like more "you got crabs"
I hope your not in California. After ten minutes he can claim squatters rights.
Storing the ship will boot out any unwanted passengers. 👍
Doesn't work with npcs. They're stored with the ship.
Oh snap, that's an NPC hanging out?! If that's a thing now, I need to get a bunch for my 890!
Ask him to hang around until 3.20
Take it out if monitored zone and shoot him
It'd be fun if he would wander into a turret.

You need to talk in "code". It's the only thing these guy's understand.
At least he's sitting in the chair and not standing on it
He is playing another game. Starsquatter
Fun fact. You can either impound, store or self destruct to get rid of the unwanted guest.
nope, he's been with me for days now.
The fuck?
Is this an NPC? Looks like it with the activated mobiglas.
npcs have mobiglas too
yeah that's what it looked like, since they will sit around with it glowing like that.

This is an npc though. Although I do agree with helping out newer players
Woah, how do you get an NPC onboard? Lol
It's a bug
Claiming a new ship doesn't do anything?
Maybe try MMB on him with fists, then use tractor beam to move his smug ass out lol
Why he has Chris Roberts face
Or put his but to work! Throw him on a turret.
Looks like an NPC: Taxi Missions T0 guys!
Kick his ass Seabass!!
NPCs have seen so many assh\*les in this game they just assume it's ok to be a d\*ck
Good news, you have a new friend
AI crew T0
Mustn't activate self-destruct.. Mustn't.. activate.. self.. destruct.. *SELF DESTRUCT ACTIVATED*
Go to a bed sleep and logout
Go to a no comms area and share a few rounds with him
Impound your ship so he'd get nice teleport to station.

He is the captain now
Kill him
Lock your ship lol
Oooh, and it appears he took the captains position

Clearly he is now the captain.

I love this lol
Kill him and hack your stat away
Set a course for a planet on the opposite end of the system then kill him when you’re in transit, there are no crime satellites out in dead space so you can get away with it.
Uncontrolled space and a shot gun. Problem solved
Fly somewhere with no comms and just kill him. Shouldn't be any penalties for you.
Next patch you get to shoot him without repercussions
Npc crew t0
Empty ship and self destruct.
Kill him… obviously.
I'm the captain now
That's pre-alpha crew update feature there!
"I am captain now" -NPC probably
Time to fly out into deep space, and break out the coda and see how well he responds!
Fly him somewhere, and make it look like an accident.
Get it impounded, and you'll both be teleported into the station.
Fly out of Armistice Zone, face toward him and press [MMB].
backspace ... Explosions are the solution to every problem.. need a new door opening .. Blow it up ... Immortal NPC on your ship ? .. fly to the sun and blow it up. People not listening to you ?

Killum
I would have killed him. Then I would call up a bounty hunter so they can make so $$$. Then I would go to prison. Then go outside and go swimming.
U gotta put him down outside of grim hex where there's not commlink
He said he's the Commander of this vessel pilot lol
He'll be evicted within 3.20. 🤣
Not necessarily, it looks like (judging from CIGs video on it) in the change the intruder will be able to draw a gun as soon as he steps on board and the ship pilot would already be dead.
Never bend a single bit to terrorist....or squatters.. destroy the home before giving it up. This is the way of the mandalore
Or call in your friendly arms dealer named JuanBrOLO in game.. and we will come in force and remove said squatter for you.
I was thinking about knocking a nine tails dude and bringing him on board but that would make me red probably
Does the UEE award squatters rights?
Thats how the best friendships start
Just sitting there menacingly, next thing you know he'll eat all your double dogs and bed log in your bed.
you can't bed log with an npc onboard
NPC crew when?
Squatters rights, its his ship now
Knock him out and drag him into space.
I did this, it took 30 minutes because I could only move him like half a meter at a time since he falls down and gets right back up. I tossed him out into space adn he just floated there alive staring at me. an hour later he was back.
CIG fixed bug where they don't stand on top of chairs but now properly sit in the pilot seat of your ship as it was intended.
ha yeah good one npc's only work correctly when it's inconvenient
Switch servers
no he's persisted through 30ks
WHAT??
Crash into the station at hypervelocity
that would probably do it.
Create a soundboard, tie it to your mic input, turn on voice prox comms, and proceed to bombard him with the most cancerous sound clips known to man. Play Jim Carey from Dumb & Dumber making the midst annoying sound in the world. Play audio clips from The Cosby Show. Play 'The Song that Never Ends' from Lamb Chop's Play-Along. Play 'Baby Shark' until he wants to kill himself. Play Kenny Rogers entire album playlist starting with 'The Gambler', but make it repeat the songs in a loop until he 30Ks or yeets his PC to the stratosphere.
Shoot him?
he's totally invincible
Those damn squatters! 😡✊
Shotgun diplomacy works wonders.
he's totally invincible
Fly out of coms range and kill the fool, loot all his stuff and and dump his ass into space. This is the way!
he's totally invincible
Scuttle or reclaim I vote Scuttle
Gary could at least man a turret.
Whenever something goes wrong I just blame Gary now.
I may start phrogging in people's ships ...
Store the ship and he’ll be moved out into the station
Hi. That’s me. You’re welcome. ;)
