[3.1 TO] Skunk upgrade mission bug

[pgy1206]

When I give Spacefly Egg Collection, mission indicator changes to 'talk to' and that's all.

And a request for patch ..

Make zone/sector map key toggle, like press . then show zone map, press . again close zone map.

Shouldn't that hard I hope.

have the same problem as you do. in badlands colony during the start of the game i took these light bulb missions ... one was for crafting Spacefly egg collection. 20 hours later when i finally had my spacefly egg collection i got to where the mission tells me to go ( badlands colony ) i docked and talked to this split after i gave him the item he thanked me and the mission changed to "Talk to" ... thats it .. talk to... not saying who or where and not even a mission guidance. when i try to talk to him again the "Give item" option is greyyed out and i no longer have the item in my inventory... the mission keeps saying "Talk to" ... i tried flying to different stations but it just would not change... i tried talking to a mechanic to see if the new upgrades are available but they are not.

i encountered a bug in the treasure hunt crafting mission in X-rebirth 3.0 . in badlands colony during the start of the game i took these light bulb missions ... one was for crafting Spacefly egg collection. 20 hours later when i finally had my spacefly egg collection i got to where the mission tells me to go ( badlands colony ) i docked and talked to this split after i gave him the item he thanked me and the mission changed to "Talk to" ... thats it .. talk to... not saying who or where and not even a mission guidance. when i try to talk to him again the "Give item" option is greyyed out and i no longer have the item in my inventory... the mission keeps saying "Talk to" ... i tried flying to different stations but it just would not change... i tried talking to a mechanic to see if the new upgrades are available but they are not. one noticeable event is that the badlands colony seems to be under non-stop attack from Sovereign fighters .... also one noticeable factor is that the badlands colony only has 1 docking station and inside there are no Mechanics.. i would assume this is what is causing the bug since you can only get the upgrades from mechanics and the mission will only search for the ones in the same zone.

ok i found the bug. the mission searches for platforms ( docks ) to put the NPC Trader to but it requires that you ( the player ) is not docked on that platform... problem is badlands colony only has 1 platform and you are there. first i need to double check why they put that requirement there, there has to be a reason. maybe so that when they add the NPC trader it wont popup in tin air ? ( but maybe not, because i removed the requirement and the mission told me to go back to the ship anyway and when i got back in the NPC is there ). if its all clear i will post a mod fix here if its allowed to add files here.

NOTE : some people did not complain about this mission. some even made a spoiler post about secret missions for this.. i take it works on some people and not on some ? weird.. please check your update

The devs are aware of this issue and a fix should be in the next patch - so don't worry too much about crafting a fix yourselves.

I met the bug too, and today I update to 3.2 and continue the mission, but the bug is still there, I can't get the new engines.

Cancel the mission and look for it elsewhere. I suppose you took the mission on "badlands colony" or "core dig"? the engineer is supposed to spawn on a different dock on the same station - which is difficult for these stations with only one dock.

i made a fix myself. but one of the forum moderators told me they don't need it. they are already working on it. after the patch you still have the bug ?
