Lost builder bug

Post by det2048 »

I chose a near by ARG construction vessel close by within 1 sector.

After some period of time passes (maybe 10-15 mins) I cannot see where it is. I searched by its ID and searched all construction vessels on the map. Yet it still has it listed as assigned to the station as the builder.

I suspect it was destroyed by Zenon since this station is in the void, however I cannot confirm this as I see no wreck.

Please get this bug fixed or give us the option to cancel. Why grey out that option? Let us pay again.

Here is a save of the game, I use no game mods, this is vanilla.

This issue cleared up, perhaps the builder was in a small patch of unexplored area? It still would be great to have some way of doing a comm with the vessel from the station build interface. And ask for his location. And the map can move to it, even if its in unexplored fog. So I can get an idea of ETA and or see whats going on.

One thing you could do is land a small, cheap ship on the builder to keep track of it. Give the ship a Mk II scanner and periodically have it take off and land so you can expose the surrounding areas.

And since this isn't really a tech support issue, I'll move this thread to the main forum.

And welcome to the forums. :)
