Personal Hangar missing after Character Repair
Tracked since 20 Sept 2026 · Last researched 20 Sept 2026
Problem
You used Character Repair for Error 41013 and can enter the Persistent Universe again, but your Personal Hangar is missing from your home city. CIG lists this as a likely temporary side effect in Alpha 4.10.1.
Retrieving a ship may still assign an ordinary hangar. That keeps limited ship access available, but it does not mean your Personal Hangar has returned.

Current conclusion
No reliable fix is confirmed
CIG says the hangar loss is temporary, but Alpha 4.10.1 has no confirmed recovery. Waiting is the lowest-impact fallback. The available interventions are unconfirmed, older, or conflicting.
Other options
Wait a day, then check again
CIG calls the loss temporary. One player with the same Character Repair trigger got the Personal Hangar back after about 24 hours in an older LIVE build, but there is no proof that timing works in Alpha 4.10.1.
Steps
- Leave the account alone and retry personal-hangar access after about 24 hours.
Use a temporary hangar for ship access
If an ASOP terminal is accessible and you only need temporary ship access while your Personal Hangar is missing
This may keep you flying while the Personal Hangar is absent. It does not restore the Personal Hangar.
Steps
- Use an ASOP terminal at the home city to retrieve a ship.
- Use the assigned hangar, understanding it is not the missing Personal Hangar.
Claim every ship at another location
If another location and its ASOP terminals are reachable, and you accept the time required to claim every ship and return home
This route is circulating again for Alpha 4.10.1, but the advisory carrying it calls it unconfirmed. One player on an older LIVE build got the hangar back after a longer sequence that included these steps and a full day away, then lost it again.
Steps
- Travel to another location with an accessible hangar.
- Claim all ships at that location.
- Return to the home location and relog.
Expect substantial travel and claim time. The Personal Hangar may still not return, and an older recovery did not last.
What's not worth trying
Do not run another Character Repair just for the hangar
CIG calls Character Repair an irreversible last resort, and in Alpha 4.10.1 it is the operation likely causing this side effect. Older attempts both worked and failed.
Do not treat shader-cache clearing as a fix
One player on an older build reported success, but two others in the same discussion saw no change. Nothing in Alpha 4.10.1 shows that local shader data controls this account-side hangar loss.

Boundaries and evidence
Use this page only when the Personal Hangar disappeared after Character Repair for Error 41013. Error 41013 still blocking entry, a hangar that appears but cannot be reached, and a broken freight elevator are different problems.
CIG does not say how long temporary means or name a recovery step for the missing Personal Hangar.
No Alpha 4.10.1 player result confirms that any option on this page restores this exact incident.
Older player reports often combine waiting, ship claims, relogging, another repair, or local-file changes, so they do not show which step caused a return.
CIG links STARC-182112, but its report details were not publicly visible. We did not reproduce this incident or test these routes ourselves.
If Error 41013 still stops you from entering the Persistent Universe, use the separate Error 41013 reconnect guidance.
