Player HQ "The Experiment" Mission Not Triggering - Awaiting mission conditions to be met.

Post by s4spencer »

I had started a new game and found the quest trigger. I was playing in windowed mode, and I resized my window while the mission briefing was open. It showed me a loading screen for a few seconds (as it normally does when the window is resized), and I came back and the mission briefing was gone.

Normally I can just go to mission offers and find missions there when this happens. That is not the case for the player HQ mission.

I've saved & reloaded. I've restarted the game. Restarted steam. I can not get the mission to come back. Tried half a dozen signal scans so far and I cant get the mission re-offered.

I get the mission to trigger however when talking to the boron it just stops with the screen of him on and it doesnt continue from there. Tried a new game and that didnt work, tried validating files on steam and that didnt work. Is it like this for others? I started a new game in 1.32.

I am having the same problem. I trigger it and it stays on boron. Can't goto maps, save, or anthing. Like the stage where the mission is to load into my mission log something happens that causes the issue. I reinstalled the game and started a new game. no luck.

Please see the first announcement in this forum about the information required to allow us to help you properly. Perhaps the DxDiag and Vulkaninfo is not so important this time but at the very least the game version and some background as to exactly how and where you each got to the Boron stage would be quite useful. Further, one of you providing a vanilla save with the problem about to become apparent would greatly improve the chances of this being addressed by the devs and fixed.

I created a new game on young gun and made a save right before scanning for the quest since i cant save after triggering it.

We tested and it worked on our side, could you double-check that you have really "antimatter-cells" ( and not "antimatter-converters") on board?

If it then still doesn't work, please send us a mail at crash@egosoft.com with topic "antimatter cells (for Owen)" and a link to this forum-post + a link to the savegame (on dropbox/googledrive/...). Thanks!

Thanks for the savegame.

The mission wants you to deliver a second ship for "the experiment" and evacuate it.
Since you are still onboard this ship, the mission doesn't continue due to safety concerns.
Try piloting another ship and watching the one with antimatter cells from a safe distance.
