when i fought paranid i've heard marine voices like marines start boarding something?? i've quickly checked my own but they were not mine. latter i picked up 4 spacesuits, now i have 4 paranid passengers, not marines. strange or normal? what to do with them?

i also picked up "no pilot" spacesuit (not in same sector). i'm slightly afraid that it will corrupt my savegame or something. what to do with it? keep it as a curiosity?

Great walktrough series, I really appreciate your effort!

Just wanted to add that you also receive a Baldric Miner at the very beginning (docked at the Orbital Patrol Base as soon as you accept the "go to UFJD sector" quest) and also an Angel, after rescuing J.B. and Bala Gi

I'm using your walkthrough as a reference for plot rewards in my Ship Sources List, hope you don't mind.

EDIT: just finished the aldrin plot, but this time I didn't receive Angel as a reward somehow

(weird, I remember getting one last time I did this plot, and have reports from other people getting it), but still got Baldric Miner

Thanks for the guide, got the shipyard to spawn on TSU1, went to check what was available and factory wise all I see that is unique to terran is protein paste. The list has 2 sizes of power plant, 2 sizes ore, 2 sizes silicon, protein paste, and crystal M, does this list increase over time? I was hoping to have weapon and missile factories.

@ Reliku: It sounds like you have a modified t/factories file. What mods or edits are you using?

Reliku · Post by **Reliku** » Sun, 5. Jun 11, 22:09

no mods, running 3.1, steam version, no add on at all, not even the offical add ons. At one point I had added a cockpit mod, but when I noticed I got the modified tag, I uninstalled it and loaded a old game months ago that was not modified and redo everything.

Finish whole plot first, then you get whole offer.

If completing everything in the plot does not fix the Terran station list properly then run the Steam verify gamefiles cache tool in case your games files are corrupt.

EDIT: OK thanks to Deca.death and Infekted, above and below. I guess when I did that plot I just cracked on to the complete end without checking out the Shipyard in the meantime.

There's nothing wrong with his files. It's as deca says. You only get a very limited selection (mainly SPPs and mines) untill you actually finish the plot.

Hi.

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 ?

Thank you.

How do you mean "you cant"? Maybe you trying scanning to small. Dump a fast fighter there and order it to scan sector OOS, he should cover all automatically.

shamusX · Post by **shamusX** » Tue, 7. Jun 11, 15:43

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.

shamusX · Post by **shamusX** » Tue, 7. Jun 11, 15:55

No new or other asteroids were spawned.

I hope I'm not stuck...

EDIT: Forget this comment - it was about Final Fury methods!

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.

KaesarSosei · Post by **KaesarSosei** » Tue, 7. Jun 11, 21:02

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?

Please don't double post. There's an edit button when you want to add something like that. Please use it.

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....
