The Fleet Manager, a cornerstone of your Star Citizen experience, allows players to maintain and oversee their amassed ships, making trades, repairs, and preparations easier. It is a complex tool, like a very large spaceship with all kinds of buttons and screens. Sometimes it's tricky to grasp, so let's tackle why your ships might go missing from this very essential dashboard.

Troubleshooting your Star Citizen Fleet Manager is tricky, but figuring things out feels quite satisfying! Let's check a few factors and hopefully solve your issue.
1. Connectivity Issues:
- "Network is your friend", in this game!
- Is your internet stable? Sluggish internet connection could be the problem.
- Server issues? A network hiccup could cause problems displaying your vessels.
- Restarting your router is often a quick fix for those brief, temporary internet issues, just as restarting the whole system sometimes helps a running computer program.
- A temporary disconnection might also happen because of a sudden blackout or any temporary failure of your electricity supplier.
2. Insufficient Funds:
- "Money isn't everything" — though it helps. Verify funds for your account!
- Unpaid subscriptions or fees are culprits here.
- Verify payment method and confirmation receipts! You never know.
3. Database Corruptions (Critical):
- Sudden errors or crashing often can damage your program.
- Some kind of glitch could be making problems appear in the system and on the display!
- Ensure everything's updated, that all the parts are in working condition. This should be the case usually.
4. Unfamiliar Inventory Purchases:
- Did you just buy or add an extra ship or aircraft? This isn't so bad! Check if it has been loaded into the Fleet Manager, that the Fleet Manager understands it!
- What is a "Ship inventory"?
- This could have caused your fleet listing to disappear.
5. Account or System Glitches
- Glitches aren't so uncommon these days with all the complex stuff! (Games, websites)
- In-game account issues, like problems with your login or some forgotten steps!
- Problems with your device or software installed can cause this as well, just be sure it isn't the fault of any of these factors!

Investigating Possible Issues
Troubleshooting these problems isn't as scary as it sounds!
Step-by-Step Check List
-
Connectivity Check: Test your internet. Use online tools to see if you have any problems with your connection, which can easily lead to missing ships.
-
Payment Status: Confirm the payments associated with your account; missing items can easily arise if there is some issue! Check and cross-reference your payment details with what your in-game accounts and software say, be very careful.
-
Account History Review: Make a quick note and search of past errors. Look through the game's logs to see if there have been past or temporary incidents.
-
Game System/Device Health Review: Check your device software for possible crashes that could interfere or destroy any files!
-
Reinstalling (if necessary): This will delete everything but help keep the software in good order. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the Star Citizen client, it might not be as bad!
Additional notes for troubleshooting. Try doing it one step at a time, make sure to note what works and what doesn't for a smooth progress and results! Make sure all parts are functioning normally! Think about whether your payment method is having problems, try changing it!

I just had to be patient and wait. Luckily, it was temporary and the issue cleared after the server maintenance, not a real big deal, really.
