I traveled to a "?" destination (fuel asteroids I believe?), after leaving the system ALL my gear got deleted.
That is unforgivable!
There should be a warning that this will/might happen (unless it's a bug?) so I can make an informed decision to jump there.
If like 1 or 2, or like up to 10% of the gears get deleted, yeah that sucks, but it is still playable (unless a critical component in the build gets deleted), but loosing EVERYTHING that just SUCKS.
This time it was not an instant game-over because I hadn't progressed far enough to get trapped, but it COULD be & that's no fun at all.
I stayed a bit, & clicked asteroids until I got full fuel, then I pressed the "Escape" button, I noticed the gear was gone when I loaded into the next map, not sure if that happened before then, but I don't think so.
I assume that's what we are supposed to do?
It's not something like if we stay long enough something happens or we get to leave automatically (like, we drive out from the debris field or so?)
