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.

NPC (Boron) station spawned very far from center of Towering Wave. A lock on from a ship near center a shows 6613.0 km distance. I've completed all the Boron DLC missions and have had at least 1 base in that area for a while.

We can't really look into this based on a couple of screenshots. Please provide a link to a savegame so that we can take a look.

Thanks for the save. :)

Unfortunately there's not much we can do to fix it after the station has built, or ordered to be constructed, as it's after the bug occurred.

We'd need a save from before it was built to understand why the issue happened in the first place, which is difficult to obtain given the nature of the issue, and even when getting a save from beforehand, the issue may not occur again or consistently.

Still, thanks for the report and save. :)

Yeah, that's what I expected. I have 1 save from ~1d, but the others are within a few hours of this one and I think after the station was made. I've uploaded them in case they can help:
