Where did my armor go?
I took a few armor hits running Brilliance for Tayla, and now for some reason I can't see my armor to repair it. It doesn't show up in the in-flight damage report screen or the equipment screen in the ship dealer, but I can't buy a new set of armor. So here I am, running around with busted armor that I can't even see to sell or fix.
Suggestions?

i had the same problem: armor was not showing up, but couldn't buy new one ... ended up selling my centurion and buying a new one, of course i lost quite some money with that 'deal'.
but i was too lazy to try to fiddle with the savefile and earning the money to get all my guns, autotrackers, etc again was definitely more fun than hacking the file

i remember last time i was playing through the Campaign i had this happen to my B&S Omni, it just vanished, i couldnt repair it, it didnt work but it was still there.
a bit late for sending the save now, as it was about 2 months ago, but anyway, my shields have disappeared on my centurion, they still work the same but they dont show up on the upgrade menu or on the damage report when im in flight... weird...

So you sold your armor from the Tarsus and bought it back with the centurion. Now you can't buy an armor for the centurion only when you sell the hull first? Is that right?

This bug happened to me while playing PR two days ago. I bought a new Orion to test the ship a little bit ingame. I was upgrading at Perry and because there's no repair AI available I sold the one of my Stiletto to buy it again for Orion. No problems so far, but when trying to buy it for Orion the game refused. I decided to give a fuck about and buy a repair driod advance. Same problem here... narf.
I tried playing w/o the repair stuff and every damaged part of my ship disappeard... so finally I had no upgrades and could not buy new stuff for other ships. I played a bit with Stiletto then and one hour later after an evil clean sweep all damaged upgrades disappeared as well.
I deleted this save game and tried another one after game restart. Worked fine...

Lately I've also seen my ship's armor disappearing. Not completely but it just won't regenarate after repairing it in station. I suspect it started happening after buying that fancy new repair droid (2nd most expensive)... how about you? Do you use repair droids? Any similar experiences after buying a rep droid? Gotta try selling that droid and see what happens...

I've had this annoying bug. I'm pretty sure that the armor is fully repaired even though it doesn't show up on your in-flight screen. A simple solution, however, is to sell your armor and buy it back immediately. It only sets you back by a thousand credits, but at least you don't get the inconvenience of not knowing how much of your armor is left during a fight.
