Required Information in all Technical Support Requests

Please ensure that you provide the following information for all questions posted in this Technical Support forum.
  • Version and language (e.g. 8.00 Hotfix 3, English, etc.).
  • Whether or not your game is modified using any third party scripts or mods (see note below).
  • The game start you originally selected for the game in which the problem occurred.
  • Exact nature of the problem, where and when it occurs and what you were doing at the time.
  • Any possibly relevant changes you have made to your game, system, or software before the issue occurred.
  • Where appropriate, additional symptoms, error messages, links to saves, screenshots and crash dump files (see this Wiki entry).
  • Your system specifications in the form of a DxDiag report and vulkaninfo (see this Wiki entry).
Failure to provide all this information will make it pretty much impossible for people to help you and may mean that it takes longer for your problem to be identified and hopefully solved. So please don't waste your own time and everyone else's by just posting something like "My game freezes. Help!!!".

If you are supplying information that will not conveniently fit into posts in this forum (approx 70,000 character limit per post), in the worst case you can split long text files across 2 consecutive posts, or ideally you can upload the data to a reputable public fileshare site (a few examples are Google Drive, DropBox or PasteBin, etc) but please don't use sites that spam advertising or require registration for downloads. Please use in your post the open public sharing link to your file(s) that will not require any account or registration for others to download.

Note: Support for third party modifications must be provided by the authors of those modifications, and any requests for such support should be posted in the appropriate thread in the Scripts and Modding forum.

[#3861][7.50] PAR Plot - Holy Order Cipher: No guidance to mission objective - fixed in future update

Post by Fluggonaut »

I am currently doing the PAR plot where I'm supposed to dock on a destroyer ("spacesuit, S or M" (quote voice line)) and fetch an item (Holy Order Cipher) that's "right there on the deck" (quote voice line). However, if I don't land on one specific S landing pad, I don't have a mission guidance.

Savegame: Link

What to do:
  1. Load the savegame
  2. Observe that there is no mission guidance
  3. Undock with the Yasur next to the player
  4. Dock on the other S landing pad on the destroyer
  5. See that there is a mission guidance
The voice line very specifically states that you can dock in whatever ship you want so I'd expect there to be a mission guidance for all kinds of docking.

Good catch! :thumb_up: In the linked case the item was on the M docking pad.

Thank you for the report, and sorry for the late reply. The crate spawned in a location that was difficult to access, and that mission guidance couldn't guide you to. In a future update, the crate will no longer spawn in this location for this specific mission, and this will also be fixed in your save game.
