A commander in Elite Dangerous reported a strange issue with their Nomad planetary vehicle after server maintenance on August 28, 2026. The vehicle, previously undamaged and fully operational, was found without power upon logging back in. The HUD displayed a "Power Limit Exceeded, Modules Disabled" warning, and the oxygen timer was counting down. Attempts to take off caused the Nomad to briefly lift but then settle back down, incurring minor hull damage. No power pips were present in SYS, ENG, or WEP, indicating a possible bug affecting planetary vehicles after maintenance. Players using Nomads should be aware of this issue and monitor their vehicles closely after server restarts.
