Problem with a couple of missions

[Slashman]

Hey all,

First, The Deploy Resource probes mission: I went into the asteroid field and deployed a resource probe that found the required ice. But the mission doesn't complete. What am I doing wrong? It asks for five stars worth of ice and the probe shows that much detected. Is it possible that the probe is detecting ice outside the mission area? I am closer to the wall of the mission area than I am to the center. *Scratches Head*

Second, is the sell hull parts in Tides of Avarice. I was told that I don't have to move them all at once and I could sell them bit by bit with my started Kyd. I did that and it still says I need to sell 22 units. But all the hull parts that were set to the special category are gone. 400 units I sold them off to the wharf in Windfall. It still says I have 22 to sell of the 400. What am I missing?

Any help is appreciated.

Resource Missions - Devs aware.

On the hull parts, I believe that the intention is that you buy the special 400 and then sell them to any Wharf at a profit for each part sale. I wonder if the partial trades applies to the selling but not so much the buying?

Here's a similar complaint but that player never did make a proper and supported Tech Sp report.

Heh, and this just popped up. What a coincidence!

Thanks Alan,

At least I can ignore those missions and proceed with my game until/if they get a fix out. It was just a really annoying bug because I made all those trips and now the mission won't complete.

I can just ignore resource missions until that is fixed also. Hopefully nothing else is bugged that prevents major progression.

That first hull parts link I gave says that they just bought other (more expensive) non-mission hull parts and went on to complete the mission by selling them. That might be worth a try if you haven't attempted that yet.

I saw that and now that I have a courier, I can do it all at once!

Thanks again.
