Bug - Mission says talk to, but no option to talk

Post by brekehan »

Got an transport mission, walked to security office, found NPC outlines on orange, click the mouse when it says talk to and no dialog options come up.

I've had two of those. Never found a work-around. Just had to abort and go on. I've done a number of taxi missions too so it's not all or even a majority of them like this.

I get that sometimes, a save and reload fixes it for me.

Could you upload a savegame somewhere for us to take a look. Thanks.

The same has happened to me once. Not sure on the mission, but I remember going to the security module and the guy with the mission marker would not interact with me. I could click on him, but nothing happened. I saved & reloaded and I was able to interact with the same guy, at the same place.

Happened a couple dozen in-game hours ago in vanilla 2.2.

Given that 2 posters have said that a save/reload cycle fixes it, a save may not be of that much help - but let's try giving the devs one anyway..
