Maybe you didn't understood me correctly. I can't scan them because they are already scanned. How do you scan an asteroid that has already been scanned ? :?

Oh. No way i can think of. Shouldn't mission just respawn new asteroids in circumstances like that?? That's crap man. hope someone could offer you better idea for dealing with that.

No new or other asteroids were spawned.

Alternatively, you can try destroying a few stock asteroids using cheats. Or creating new ones. IIRC, they dont' appear scanned.

Hi all,

I have just completed the Mobile Mining Base ship part of the plot. I'm surprised it doesn't seem to be mentioned here, but I simply boarded the MMBS using 12 marines and pods and then jumped it to Aldrin 2. The mission was then marked as complete and I was left the MMBS.

I have just finished the MMBS part of the plot and received a message saying that the Terrans had built a Shipyard in Terran Unknown Sector 1. However I cannot find the station. What has gone wrong? Did the fact that I had an Adv Sat in there affect it?

I have a question at this plot. I think I got stuck.

At chapter 2, Infestation, were I have to fly to Perpetual Sin, I tried to scan the asteroids, but i can't. I scaned them a lot earlier in the game, because I made a space complex in that sector. I didn't knew at that time that it will be a problem. So I cannot load a savegame before this happend.

Any suggestions ? :cry:

Thank you.
The problem isn't the asteroids if your in Perpetual Sin, the problem is not reading the mission guidance....

There is no mission to scan asteroids there.... :P

@ dillpickle: Good catch! ShamusX has us all going on about Final Fury asteroid scanning instead of the Aldrin plot debris search!

dillpickle was right. I am not stuck. I got miss lead by Spychotic plot walkthrough, knowing that I have to scan asteroids for nividium.

In my case,

I had to scan some unknown objects in the center of the sector ( marked by a small dot "." ), after I took a tour of the sector.
Sorry for the trouble, but beleive me that I read the mission guidance not just once and also this walkthrough.

When you arrive in sector you will find several debris items. The ones you are looking for are near the asteroid at 12.9, 5.1, -1.9. You’ll need to get very close (within 350m) to initiate a scan.
Is it ambiguous?

Hey

I'm having a wee problem.. When I start the quest to destroy the Paranid ships/drones and Satalites in Unknown Sector to make way for the rescue of prisoners the Yokahama doesnt appear. I can see the missions guidance flash when the mission goes to say Protect Yokahama but the ship dissapears as soon as it appears.

I have some scripts/mods but none that would affect mission plots.

Any ideas?

You don't think so? With that huge list, many of which change ships/stations/etc., I'd have to say you need to contact the authors of many of those addons and see what they say. Unless you can reproduce the issue in a vanilla game, I doubt we can help you otherwise.

Did you get really close? Did you see the Boron Angel appear near the station? Did you try to get really close to that ship?
