[TC] Problem with OFF plot

[Foxhound9154]

I'm pretty far along in the Final Fury plotline, and I have a problem...the military base in Argon Sector M148 is hostile to me after getting hit by my ship during the sector defense mission you get when you hit the captain rank. I got a station hack just a few sectors away, but the military base wasn't one of the options, just a couple pirate bases.

Is there any way to fix this?

As far as I know stations that turn red due to accidental firing should return to normal blue after a while...not sure how long it'll take though, or if my knowledge is correct.

Maybe someone who has shot up a few stations will have that info.

There may even be a script that could fix it if your game is a modified one.

If it stays red permanently you can get station hack missions to turn it blue again. Look for Exclamation mark missions in nearby sectors.

Are you too far away? The maximum distance for station hacking is three sectors.

And no, they won't turn blue after a while. At least not up to patch 2.1 and I didn't read anything that this has been changed in a later patch.

look out for any base (Argon, Boron, whatever...)with pirate citizen inside (recognize pirate by picture in Pirate identification guide) up to 3 sectors away.

What game version are you playing? I seem to recall a bug in an older version that wouldn't allow you to hack that station, and that it was fixed. Not absolutely positive about this, though.

As for stations turning 'blue' after a while, that only happens for station defense missions when you accidently hit the station you're defending. And it turns blue immediately after the mission is completed. None of which applies in your case, unfortunately.

This appears to be restricted to NPC missions: several vanilla Corp missions I've done that have had non-serious 'blue-on-blue incidents' (ie minor shield damage only) have refused to turn the station back, even after several game-days

Foxhound9154, if you got a pirate base close by, check it early and often.

I've noticed that the hack missions are offered for the red stations closest to that base. So if you clear the near ones, eventually they will offer the hack for M148.

I've also had hack offers 4 sectors away, and once I had one that was five sectors away. But there were no red stations in the sectors in between. I've had the method of counting sectors explained, and it has sounded very strange. I just count it like I would fly it.

I just found a station hack offer in Nathan's voyage and only one option, a nearby pirate base, was offered. No luck with the military outpost in M148.
