Bug Report:
Stuck Quest - Missing NPC Drek Vadda at Step 5 of Laboratory Quest (Bar Technology)
1. Summary of the Issue
The laboratory quest related to obtaining the Bar Technology is stuck at step 5 because the quest NPC, Drek Vadda, is missing from the bar at the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1 in Hewa’s Twin I. I provided a Pegasus ship with racing stats and a crew for the quest, which is now listed as belonging to the "Citizen" faction (same as Bosa To) and remains stuck at the station. The quest log still requires me to talk to Drek Vadda, preventing further progress. After a potential bugfix, I would like to receive an in-game notification from Bosa To or Drek Vadda indicating that the quest can be continued by visiting the bar.
2. Game Version: X4: Foundations version: 7.60 (Steam)
DLCs installed: None
Mods: None
Game interface language: Russian
3. Steps to Reproduce: Started the laboratory quest related to the Bar Technology.
Spoke with the concerned workshop manager.
Traveled to Hewa’s Twin I to meet Drek Vadda at the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1.
Drek Vadda requested a racing ship; I provided a Pegasus with racing stats and a crew.
Completed the racing track segment as requested by Drek Vadda.
Drek Vadda asked me to scout anomalies with him; I completed this task.
During the anomaly scouting, Drek Vadda got stuck in a minefield; I destroyed the mines around him.
Drek Vadda said we would meet at the bar in the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1 in Hewa’s Twin I.
Arrived at the bar, but Drek Vadda is not present.
Checked other areas of the station and nearby sectors, but Drek Vadda could not be found.
The Pegasus ship is now listed as belonging to the "Citizen" faction and remains stuck at the station.
The quest log is stuck at step 5, requiring me to talk to Drek Vadda to progress.
I am currently standing at the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1 in Hewa’s Twin I, directly in front of the stuck Pegasus, with the quest selected as active in the log.
4. Expected Behavior: Drek Vadda should be present at the bar in the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1 in Hewa’s Twin I to allow interaction and quest progression.
The provided Pegasus ship (with crew) should be interactable, returned, or properly integrated into the quest after progression.
After a bugfix, I expect to receive an in-game notification from Bosa To or Drek Vadda stating that the quest can be continued (e.g., “Come to the bar, everything is ready”).
5. Actual Behavior: Drek Vadda is missing from the bar at the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1 in Hewa’s Twin I.
The Pegasus ship with racing stats and crew was taken by the quest, is now listed as belonging to the "Citizen" faction, and remains stuck at the station without interaction options.
The quest is stuck at step 5, requiring a conversation with Drek Vadda, and no progress can be made.
The Bar Technology cannot be obtained.
6. Save file available: Yes
Save file uploaded to Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FS1XHf ... sp=sharing
The save file shows me standing at the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1 in Hewa’s Twin I, in front of the stuck Pegasus, with the quest selected as active.
7. Additional Information Platform: Steam
Sector/Station: Bar at Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1, Hewa’s Twin I
Game time: 4 days, 18 hours
Interface language: Russian
Other observations: Reloading the save file did not resolve the issue.
The NPC was not found in other nearby stations or sectors.
The Pegasus ship’s faction changed to "Citizen" (same as Bosa To) after being provided for the quest.
The Pegasus had a crew when provided, which may be relevant to the bug.
I attempted to take screenshots in-game, but the screenshot function did not work. I can try taking screenshots via Steam (F12) if needed for further debugging.
I am currently at the station and can provide additional details or test specific actions if requested by developers.
8. Request for Fix
Please fix the issue so that Drek Vadda reappears at the bar in the Teladi Pharmaceutical Factory 1 in Hewa’s Twin I, or provide an alternative way to progress the quest beyond step 5. Ensure the Pegasus ship (with crew) is no longer stuck and its faction status is resolved after the fix. Ideally, after the game update, I’d like to receive an in-game notification from Bosa To or Drek Vadda indicating that I can visit the bar to continue the quest, cause i planning play after send this report, and possibly play many hours before your team fix it.
