[Bug] Buy 100 Energy cells missions

[Cabrelbeuk]

I've done this mission about 10 times, so i know that it's a bug and just not me who is brain dead .

I explain what happened exactly :

i've fired my cargo from my squad, then i add him again in my squad to tell him to go to the right sector by the interface (not directly so).

When i arrived to the usine following the mission indication, all the cells selling point were untargetable.

I had to load an old save , tell my cargo to directly go to the sector and then it works.

I hope it's understandable...

Edit : yes i had accepted the search for an offer, and i scanned all the the station. Nothing changed.

I think somebody reported the Energy Cell Indicators not showing properly.
Have you tried Alt+Tab to see if it refreshes?
I've also noticed that I had to wait a bit for the Ship to pick up the Energy Cells.

I'd advise to give the Rahannas the orders and to leave the zone and wait for it to do it's job, might be another case of being in the same zone causes the problem?

Given the symptoms described it sounds like a bug I often see after running the client over 2 hours :

Give an order or wait for a ship to arrive.
Check ships progress as nothing seems to be happening et voila! nothing is happening!
Check orders - they look fine, but ship is sitting still somewhere not moving or functioning at all.

This seems to be some sort of memory issue as (just as described above) if i save and reload it all continues as expected. No errors show in the log that might pertain to the fail and theres no crash to send in for a dump. Combine this with no broken save to send in it's the bug testers nightmare as theres no way for Ego's QA team to reliably seethe bug in action and tel the devs what exactly needs fixing

My hope is that moving XR to native 64bit (as mentioned in the future roadmap) will be the cure for this type of issue.

I didn't order to my cargo to buy cells, because i couldn't.

When i said that the marked selling points of the station were untargetable, they were, so there was no offer, no proposition, nothing.

Have you tried remotely through the Trade Panel? If your not sure how to do that.

1) (Press Enter) Main Menu > Trading
2) Click the Energy Button to filter out the other wares,
the offer from that station should be on the list of places selling energy cells.
3) If I remember it's Energy Array II of IV in Concealed Hideout?
4) You will see at the bottom which station that Offer belongs to, your ship should be in your squad.
5) Click Next and order 100 Energy Cells from there.

Like Yorrick mentioned after an hour or 2 of gameplay Player ships get confused and stop moving, you have to Remove/Add Squad the particular ship to give them a kick in the backside to move again.
A Memory leak problem that should be fixed hopefully when the game is fully implemented to 64 Bit.

There was no offer in the list, i've verified.
