[#3612][Timelines] Can't complete Rise against the Machines - Unable to reproduce

Post by gyzmo »

I've tried this mission twice now, killing every xenon in the sector (which I've searched pretty thoroughly) but both times the objective "Defeat: XEN #dace" won't complete. See the screenshot, the #dace is most definitely defeated.

The scenario is working fine for me.

Did the scenario eventually complete properly?
Also, this may be a stupid question, but did you destroy the Xenon near the Nav Beacon?

The scenario does not complete properly.

I've, too, replayed it twice. First time it was stuck at "Defeat: XEN H", even though I've certainly defeated it (it was the LAST ship I've defeated). Playing second time, I've started with sending ships to bottom right part of the map and destroying Xen H first, then the last ship remaining was XEN #dace, I've destroyed it and scenario, again, is stuck at "Defeat XEN: #dace" objective, even though it is obviously defeated.

There are no other ships anywhere, I've sent ships across whole map.

I've read that it's a long-time existing bug in Timelines. The only workaround is to go to space and wait till your spacesuit would be out of oxygen, you will die and it will trigger the end of scenario, which I'm doing right now, waiting 30 minutes till the oxygen is empty. It is not something that we've missed; it is a bug that noticeable number of people encountered, there are some discussions about it in this exact forum - you can google "x4 timelinse rise against the machine doesn't end". It sure as hell annoying.

Okay, followup post. Slowly dying from the lack of oxygen in spacesuit has helped - the mission is ended. Surprisingly, I've got 2 stars, I wonder why - there is a rating screen, where all my white lines are very small - Destroyed enemy XL ships - 4, 198 points. And it looks as if the line could be as long as 40 enemy XL ships. 1 enemy L ship - again, I wonder why the line is so huge - 33 points. 27 M ships - barely 10% of the line filled, 445 points. S ships - 48, like, 5% of the line filled, 264 points. 2 stars. Since I've destroyed all the enemy ships - how could score be even increased?

Was there supposed to be much more enemy ships there? It defeinitely seems like a bug or a set of bugs.

Not able to reproduce this issue, the scenario has a timer on that should indicate all remaining enemies once there are just a few left or 30min have passed.

So would need very specific step to reproduce this issue to try and see what the problem is as in my tests it always worked.
