need help w/ construction missions, are they bugged?

[CoffeeKitty]

i've painstakingly fufilled every completion criteria for 3 seperate construction missions now and not a single one of them will complete. i cannot figure out if they're just terribly bugged and not complete or if im doing something wrong. i really need help with this, it's infurating me to no end

i placed the required size plots in the exactly required location, i fufilled the required storage, required turrets, and the construction was complete and resulted in a fully functional station, now of which i have several and are kind of entirely useless to me and wasted a ton of resources. i cant figure out how to complete these damn quests.

some visual aids:

Any help is greatly appreciated, i've spent the latter part of 8 hours trying to get these missions to work lol

Thanks for the response, i added managers to two of my stations, and ensured their balance was 0, as well as making sure there was a minimum of 5 turret groups per station, and made sure all the plot sizes were at least one larger than required, sadly neither of the two quests so far have completed, working on the third.

Hanging in the same Mission but I have no Clue where to get these Turret Bps. Have you made sure that you build the Station in the yellow Missionareal?

yea its in the mission area, also turret bp come exclusively from faction store (faction representative inside shipyards) at +10 or better reputation, or you can steal them from data leaks once you have the tech in your PHQ

Hey. I had the same issues. Suddenly it just finished. What I did, in no particular order, after it SHOULD'VE been done per description; Add manager, clear cash from factory, build more turret pads so that total actual pads are 5. (I bet it's the turret pards)

This is what worked for me. The game is... Well, I haven't had a single crash or freeze yet (22hrs and counting), but a lot of the game is lacking, big time. X-games in a nutshell really, they'll fix and polish over the next 3 years and it'll all be grand in the end.

just looking for some clarification; when you say "build more turret pads" what *exactly* do you mean? what exact scructure did you build, could you show me a screenshot of your station maybe? i've spent 5mill on defensive structures and now this station looks like a monstrocity lol

For me its not even updating "Claim Plot" after I've already paid for license and finished building the station...
tried it twice now
The silly mission navigation marker remains smack bang center in the middle of the station.

I found that you have to be physically present in the mission area when you set the plot. Like mark the mission as active, fly to the spot it indicates and only then set the plot.

As for the built structure registering: Ive found it helps to do the whole mission while sitting next to it with the timelapse thing on (shift+4)

I assumed the same second reload - did exactly that. Sat there 50m from the nav icon the whole process...
hour of my life I'll never get back. well I ate a burger while it was happening. Burger was good, so maybe not a complete loss.

Maybe that one is just bugged, I'll try a new mission of same type and see what happens.

EDIT: Nvrmnd. I was being a NUMPTY. I didn't pay attention to the interface and made it 3*+X 3*-X 5*+Y instead of 3*+X 3*+Y 5*+Z

I've found a bug where your turrets dont build on the station. I've been able to complete missions requiring 5 turrets, but i have one for 12 turrets that I can't complete. You can verify if you are suffering this bug by flying to the station, putting scan mode on and pressing your button to select the next targetable module repeatedly (not sure of the default key as i have it on HOTAS) If where the turret should be shows as "construction site", you're suffering the same bug as me.

it turns out the requirement is "turret platforms" not turrets; i've been able to complete two of the "12x turret" varieties by just slapping down 12 of the round HOP turret platforms and not even putting turrets ON the platform lol

That seems to be the bug. What turret type are you using?

Sadly doesnt work for me.

could you perhaps upload your save? compressed its only 8mb and i'd be willing to fiddle around with it to see if i can figure out the cause and fix it
