"Trading Lessons" - bugged?

[Redwyrm]

I'v tried my NPC pilot to sell those 400 hull parts for highest price available. I'v tried to buy those myself and sell them. But every time mission just not updating after i sell those 400 parts.

Basically this every time.

All hull parts sold, mission not updated.

Any Mission that requires you to buy/sell a "Ware" will be highlighted in Yellow, if by accident you buy/sell the same ware it won't count for the mission.

I did the exact same thing...

Well, returned to that mission in a while. Now mission got completed simply by buying asked 400 unites, and undocking. Haven't sold it, trader congratulated me on good made profit :\
Well, at least it's completed.

this mission is broken for me,

i bought the 400, (the marked ones) and sold it at a shipyard in the same sector,

i sold the marked hull parts, and the mission did not update at all. i went to the same station to buy 400 more (regular this time as marked one is gone(sold) and the quest still says to sell 400 (marked ones) that i sold already.

going back to previous save means the manual one i did 2 days ago. (so no , thats not an option)

poorly written mission (sorry Egosoft)
(i did this remotely , not in sector) but mission afaik never said i needed to be in sector or to buy it myself.

I have had this mission fail in multiple ways. I have had M class traders not able to dock to buy or sell at "RIP Solar Power Plant" I have even had it when I docked in an M class trader and while going through dialogue for mission had 1 of my auto traders dock with the same station (coincidence) and then end up with both M class traders stuck in the storage hold when I wanted to leave. Manual retrieval would not work, remote orders would not work, could not teleport to etc. EPIC FAIL. Tried multiple things with multiple reloads at diff time points. More recent I have managed to buy 400 energy with S class and sold at profit with no update to mission multiple times. Buying 400 energy does not update mission whether I do it manually myself or let the captain do it remotely. I thought update 6 would have sorted it all out by now. But still Mods are needed to make it reasonable gameplay and I was just about to buy the Boron expansion then this Bug happened. Thus there is a whole plot line not functioning. Avarice FAIL.

Done this mission a lot of times with no issues, and now on my brand new playthrough, had the same issue happen. Anybody found a fix?

Just tried this mission again in 7.5 Beta 2 (completed it previously without issue). I bought the highlighted 'gold' 400 units of hull parts, but mission did not progress and selling the parts does not close the mission?

Yup, having that same problem. Did you find a fix?

This issue will be resolved in a future build.

This mission is still bugged in almost 2026.
If you do it step by step with a Raleigh, the ship you get for a Tides start, it won't count the hullparts sold before you buy all 400 items.
So then you have to buy expensive hullparts just to finish the mission at a loss for credits.

If you're still having a problem now, long after the problem reported above was fixed, then clearly it's a different issue. That means you'll need to start a new thread in the Tech Support forum and provide the information requested at the top of that forum, including a link to an unmodified savegame demonstrating the problem you're having.
