Defensive Measures - Build Station for Argon (not working)

Post by Arigon2001 »

I've gone through all 3 steps for this mission:

1. Fly to : Argon Prime
2. Deliver: Claim Plot 4x4x6 km (I bought a claim plot and paid the real estate taxes for it for the asked dimension). Yes I even check it was X / Y / Z
3. Build: Build Defense Station (8 x Turrets) (Container Storage Capacity 15,000)

The base consisted of:
Average Docking Bay
A long Pier
2 x Defense platforms (4 x medium pulse turrets on each one confirmed) so a total of 8.

Everything fit in just fine and shows up OK on the station list and even the build list (even still had 1.3 million credits in account)

But it never fired off. I even put a station manager on it.

At the end I just reverted back to my hard save just prior to building this thing.

Why is this not working?

This mission doesn't work for me either and im doing it in trinity 3.
there is no "defense station", they are defensive turrets, the devs wording is really bad unless there is some hidden unit or blueprint that's missing.
I ordered the turrets for the two decks and the storage and where the turrets should be it says 'construction' and the mission says "build a defense station", the upkeep mission to hire a manager for the station doesn't update, nor can i mass hire personel and acquire a drone armada for the station.

X4 feels incredibly buggy and like it's missing a lot of things.

Do you have a container storage module?

I eventually got this to work today using 2 storage modules and a dock with 4 turrets built on each storage. The turrets are built by editing the load out of the modules to add turrets. What I found strange though was that it didn't take ownership away from me when I completed the mission.

I can't finish these missions at all.

When i try to edit the turrets in, i can't select anything, because there isnt anything to choose from but 'none'.
Do i miss something, i thought i have all available ARG blueprints bought, who does sell the turret/shield blueprints?

Whenever i add shields and turrets nothing gets built even after the components are delivered, the slot where the turret should be just says "construction *". My personal station has zero defences and the mission station has zero, out of all the bugs this has got to be the most annoying one i've ran into so far.
Mission items are bugged atm with the game failing to remove them from you once complete, i went to kill a pirate for a family heirloom and it remained in my inv after mission was complete, same again for a valuable ring, when i delievered an npc to another station in my starter ship, that npc became a permanent resident of my ship and he hangs outside the airlock door when you fly the ship.

These stations have small turrets and shields, and a few large turret and shield slots, im guessing you might be selecting the large slot hence nothing shows as you need capital ship rank/licence for the large modules.

I bought the Turret plans from the guy who gave me the level 10 reputation promotion at Antigone memorial equipment dock. He also had shield module blueprints.

Those are the small plans, which op and myself have.
It's one thing for a bug to happen to everyone, but when its selective it's a bitch of a problemo.

Description of the mission:
Name: Defensive Measures
Mission given by: Compagnie teladie
Destination: Ianamus Zura IV
Dimension: 4 x 4 x 5km
Must have: 10 turrets
Must include: Container storage capacity 15000

I tried :

A station with: Basic docking dock + 2 container module (Argon) [2x3turrets argon] + Argon defense module [4 argon turrets] = No result

So I chose to ask: Basic docking dock + 2 container module (Argon) [2x3 Teladi turrets] + defense module (Teladi) [4 teladi turrets] = No result

I wonder if I should not do otherwise because the teladi turrets (mk1) on the defense module (Teladi) are always displayed with a red cross ... and it's the same on all turrets in general, whatever the module :gruebel:

EDIT: I've find this https://steamcommunity.com/app/392160/d ... 805106390/
Finaly i've find, we have to add one shield per turret, and don't forget to add dock for TL and L ships. And above all, all step have to do in a good order. :D
