[4.20 release] BUG - Treasure Hunt, Ancient Relic & Healthy Enthusiast

[eMYNOCK]

Version 4.20 (XR VR)
Vanilla

Location: Random
Related Missions:
- Treasure Hunt
- Pieces of History
- Healthy Enthusiast

Behavior:

Once one has Crafted the Mission Items (Relic Collections and Spacefly Eggs) the Player is tasked to Dock a the Station the Mission giving NPC resides.

After Docking there is a high chance that the Guidance System will tell to "return to the Ship" leaving the Player unable to talk to the Mission Giver.


reproduction:

Simply accept the Missions and Craft the related Items.


Workaround:
after docking it is possible to com the NPC Character via Zone Map / Station Info and hand in the Item this way.

Additional:

This bug does not occur in Non-VR XR.
I would think it is related to the changed NPC Character Spawning behavior.


Regards and may someone move this into the proper Area if needed.

That may be this known issue with the base game where the 'rare mission' mechanic can have no room to spawn.

Sounds like the issue I had with my rare engines. What helped was flying to another sector and coming back.

Indeed, reads like my issue.

sending the player into a neighboring zone by default would potentially prevent this than.

I have the same problem receiving my rare engine. I chose the engine as a reward and was sent to another dock on the same station. But the mechanic was not there. I went to different zones, sectors, clusters and came back (a few times), but the mechanic is still not to be found.
However, he is listed on the screen when I select the docking point from the Skunk.


I use a few mods, but none of them should have an effect on this.

I use:
Tradeupdate so I can call people on a station and just pay them for the updates
Autocrew and Autotrain spawns crew on new or boarded vessels and levels them over time
MenuUpgradeAll just adds a button to build all turrets on ships or stations
And a Filter Mod for the Cargo Menu which shows only the wares on the selected ship
