Corporation Troubles Plot Bug Dual Convoy Share mission (Spoiler)

[-XeNoN-]

Ok after i succesfully (i think) finished the Dual Convoy mission for some guy who would give me Share's, the pointer for the mission points me to the Duke's Citadel to the PAC Forge, the odd thing is the same guy when i hail him doesnt have any new menu's just help menu's and surrender one.
I tried to dock but mission or progress wont update at all.
Did i messed up something or?
PS: When i suposed to protect the convoy, my freighter's were attacked so i needed to kill those blasted pirates, and from that point this bug occurs.Any ideas?

I can't complete Share Recovery #4 because the dual convoy mission isn't being recognized as completed. So I can't collect the shares and can't go on to the next mission. My corporate rank is at 7. I can't abandon the mission or get any mission dialogue out of the npc, the convoy's docked.

Going back to a previous save game isn't possible at this point. Is there a workaround or is that it for me on this plot line?

Did the ships all get destroyed or what? If they did, that particular quest lets you pay off the difference.

[paincakes]

Only 1 was destroyed. The quest tells me to talk with the quest giver and directs me back to him but there is no mission related dialogue and docking triggers nothing.

[TTD]

Have you checked to see if you can talk to the mission giver at the dock?
If I read you right,you are only getting the usual "way to nearest shipyard" etc.
I guess you are docked at the right station?

As bizbag said, if all remaining ships are docked, you should be sent back to the mission giver and pay him the value of the ships that were destroyed.
Do you have enough credits?

[paincakes]

Yes, I've tried talking to him while docked too. I also have more than enough credits.

I've tried visiting the sectors again where the convoys docked.

Is it possible 1 of the freighters has very low HP and is still traveling, did you fly from both starting stations to the finishing ones?

When I did it I just ignored the freighters and let the Yaki have their way

I'm hoping this will bump this up. I am having a similar problem. According to Roguey's site, I should be able to go to the mission giver and pay for the ships that were destroyed, but no luck. Tried, docking, comming from nearby, etc.

Has anyone encountered this as I can't seem to find it searching the threads:

Share recovery 4 on the dual convoy playing Argon. All begins ok but the second convoy doesn't want to move. They'll sit fly around when being attacked, and then stop after the attackers are destroyed until the next wave. The first run through I defended convoy 1, moved to convoy 2 and defended over 10 or so waves without them moving. I then tried to let them die and they docked at a nearby station.

Reload: dropped a wing of 8 fighters each on two of convoy 1's freighters, moved to convoy two and sat on them. Again they didn't move after defending several waves.

Reload: jumped to where they'd spawn, dropped my 2 wings on the station closest to convoy 2, jumped back to kick off mission. Jumped to convoy 1. Defended convoy 1 myself and wings defended convoy 2 until 1 made it home and I went over to 2 which still hadn't moved.

Reload: defended convoy 1, let convoy 2 die. Mission target updated to mission giver with the Getsu Fune station highlighted. No bookmark or quest text available on the mission giver.

Tried a couple more variations of the same but they just don't seem to want to get going. Either the convoy sits and lets me waste waves on waves of attackers, or I let some die to try to finish it and I assume by design I didn't get enough of them home so can't complete the mission. Or I'm far too impatient and I need to sit through more waves before they start moving?

Not come across it or seen reprts yet.

Perhaps L3 forum might help.
You can sign up at the bottom of your profile.
Then report your findings.
They are working on bug fixes at the moment,so if it is a bug,they would know.

[Rhiannin]

Cheers for the response. I'll try again tonight and keep better track of exactly what I try. Once I have better notes I'll check out the L3 forums unless someone gives me an idea here. I won't bother escalating til I'm a bit more sure the problem isn't between the keyboard and chair...

I can confirm one of your problems with the dual convoy mission in the Corporation Troubles Plot.

During the mission I got attacked by 2 sets of 4 M6 + M7 from the Shady Business Plot and had to jump away to defend my assets. So as a result the convoys got shot down by the Yaki (I thoroughly checked all involved systems for survivors).

The mission guidance leads you back to the station with the mission giver although its current objective is still "Protect Convoys", when you check the mission log (by pressing the hotkey for it). But you cannot complete the quest there. Neither while docked nor while in space comming the guy helps (Options: Surrender, Where is Shipyard/Equipment Dock only). Nothing happens, even after letting the game run for many hours.

Got furious and started to attack the Station to maybe get a reaction, but you guessed, it gets invulnerable at 93% hull.

Since defending my assets took a bit of time and multiple saves, unfortunately I don't have the option to reload before the convoys mission.

This bug effectively breaks the plot since you won't be able to complete the share recovery.
