[FIX/SOLUTION] Energy cells quest : Reset Planned Trip with Savegame Edition

[ginnungagap]

Hello,

You are stuck at the mission with the 100 Energy cell to sell and your transport ship say there is to many planned trip that you can't reset ?

In fact, it is possible to reset trade orders directly in your savegame :
1 Go to : C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\Documents\Egosoft\X Rebirth\69676401\save\

2 Do a back up of your last save and Open it with Notepad or Notepad++.

3 Search for "<shopping>" (Keyboard shortcut : CTRL+F), you will find your "Energy cells" trades orders

4 Delete all content between "<shopping>" and "</shopping>"

Example, Before :

Code: Select all

<shopping>
<trade id="[0x5bb]" seller="[0x85b3]" ware="energycells" price="5" amount="100" min="100"/>
<trade id="[0x5bc]" buyer="[0x7068]" ware="energycells" price="4" amount="100" min="100"/>
<trade id="[0x5bd]" buyer="[0x7068]" ware="energycells" price="6" amount="100" min="100"/>
</shopping>

After :

Code: Select all

<shopping>
</shopping>

Note : In my save I had only one "<shopping>" section because I had only one transport ship, be careful if you have multiple ships, there is maybe multiple "<shopping>" section, you need to find the good one.

5 Save the file.

6 Launch the game, there will be 0 planned trip for the transport ship. You can try to re-sell your Energy cells...

If you have a problem after the modification, restore your back up.


EDIT : I finally completed the quest after savegame edition by giving a new trade order, dismissing the ship from my squadron and waiting 30min...

One thing i'll point out is that it takes a long time for your freighter to complete this mission. I went out and bought 100 cells 3 times at different places since the" Buy 100 cells" was still showing.

I then flew to the destination where I got the "too many planned trips message when I attempted to sell. Well I waited till my freighter picked up the first batch of 100 cells and I was able to set the delivery.

My freighter then went and picked the remaining two trade requests I had queued up and then finally went and completed the mission. Took about 60 mins for it to complete.

DISAPPOINTED.

Am about to try it, but this is disappointing. Friend of mine turned me on to this game about 2 wks ago and I was really eager to play it.

After spending the last 4 hours futzing with this mission, I gave up, came here and just HAPPENED to see this thread.

I'm 15 hrs playing this game, and am not even past this mission.
