EscortDeck

I have a similar, but more fundamental issue:dybal wrote: ↑Sat May 16, 2020 1:41 amDocked in a Deep Space Dredger with a DTT Manta, usable, in the EscortDeck, locked.
After I launched the pad was still locked, but empty.
Nothing in Latest.log.
The DTT Manta is a special case, as in a prisitine condition it's too wide for the pads, but in combat, far before it's turned derelict, it looses its wings and then it fits in a pad.
I will turn debug back on on this OXP, perhaps next time there will be something in the logs.
UPDATE: usable DTT Mantas don't desappear at docking in a station (it was a Trade Post, not the main station), I was able to see it on the F4 interface for EscortDeck... I didn't store it in HypeSpaceHangar but launched, and it was gone.
From the Latest.log (I enabled Debug and put some logs cycling through the pads and "printing" the shipdata):From the logs, it was spawned then found too wide for the pad (I presume I could find it near the Witchpoint...)Code: Select all

But in-flight I've had no trouble picking-up a derelict DTT Manta (no wings!) into EscortDeck, drop it and pick it again (I didn't try to launch and call back the usable one)... I guess restoring the shipdata to the spawned DTT Manta didn't restore it to the un-winged version.
Note: this is the first time that I have tried to use an Escort Deck along with a big ship that needs the player to swap to a Cargo ship to dock
I collected a usable Medical Moray Boat onto my EscortDeckXL, along with 7 other derelict ships and then docked my Andromeda into a Deep Space dredger (by landing my Cargo ship). All went well, as the 7 non-usable salvaged ships were automatically sold. I picked up a load of alloys and launched back to 'become' the Andromeda. My Medical Moray Boat still was there on slot 1. I then docked into the main station in that sector and the Moray was still visible on slot 1 when I checked via the F4 menu. However, when I launched again, it vanished. Nothing appeared in the log to explain why.
I tried reloading the docked savegame and selling the Manta, then replacing it with a cheap (new) adder escort, which loaded onto slot 1 of the deck. On launch, it had vanished too...
To try and narrow it down, I stripped out most of my loaded oxps, leaving only:

On launch, the escort deck was empty.
