I'm trying to get some ships into the Hashinsk(51,37) system. I killed the lockdown drone there 2 turns ago, and then last turn another was fired, which is up this turn. I've discovered from previous turns that you can't get in the turn after a drone dies - it takes another turn. But after a new lockdown drone is created, shouldn't I still have a turn to get in? i thought that was in the rules.

Anyway - the message I'm getting doesn't say I can't get in because it is locked down. It says: "Fail to jump as this ship cost is a Destroyer(3) and this system only accepts Frigate(2)." However, the star system says "Max ship class [Mauler (7)]". One interesting thing about this system is that the rip currents it creates are Frigate sized, so maybe there is an error there.

Hmmm. Thats is wrong.

Is it an open system?
Is it next to the homeworld?

No, and no. I've seen a similar message before, but I didn't have time to chase it up. Still happening, by the way. I think that the lockdown drone has something to do with it, maybe it is just showing the wrong message for some reason, and it should be saying I can't get in because of the lockdown drone - maybe the new got up quick enough to lock me out after all. It just seems like a a weird message.
