Hey this also happened to me and a friend, we spent over an hour firing non-stop at the Idris only for it to pick up a repair after we tried ramming it when it left the playable zone (we were afraid it would just keep going and never come back) this undid all our work, do you know if enemy ships picking up repairs is intended?

Also, it seemed as though friendly ships would fight each other and do no damage to each other.

Here is a link to a post I made about it in feedback, it’s just got a more detailed breakdown on what happened and some solutions I think would help overall that I just wanted to suggest:

Nice post! I usually watch the Arena Commander & Star Marine forum tags. But if its AC related feel free to tag me if its elsewhere :slightly_smiling_face: always happy to read.

Sorry you had a bad experience. Hopefully you’ll have a much better one with 3.23 soon! AI picking up pickups is not intended though admittedly made laugh a little, very evil for them to do given the situation :sweat_smile:. We’ll look into that!

Lots of other good points allowing joining mid match (up to a certain point) is something we want to do, as well as stopping NPCs leaving the playable area.

To answer your friendly fire kick question – no your account wont have received any punishment for it. Punishment for friendly fire is currently only in the form of Leaderboard rating for the competitive modes (Swarm modes while they have leaderboards are not calculated in the same way)
