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.

Brantlee Northriver's Competition Quest bug - Explained.

Post by Boomzy »

Hello,

while ignoring main quests/plots and doing my own stuff enjoying game I´ve come to one funny game bug, I dont really mind it but maybe someone should look at it.

Image:
https://prnt.sc/5RB3kO76Lhun

I had this quest open for like 100 hours maybe more... How it happened - so I just finally get my corp doing well and wanted to make better fleet. After getting my 1.st Asgard ship I researched engines "lvl 2" at HQ, hopped to my Asgard and started modding whole ship. After doing that, Quest procced even when Asgard is definetly not M-sized ship (:D). Boso Ta had some Quote about that Im at wrong type ship but it didnt stopped quest for getting to 4th task as you can see at picture. (Now I had to make another Asgard and try to win race in slowest ship ever :D )

Version 8.00 Hotfix 4, English
Not modded by 3th party nor any scripts
Game start - No idea how its called but its start where you get Hyperion ship
Nature of the problem -> image + explained
Didnt made any changes to game
Didnt have any errors etc

I think that vulkaninfo + DxDiag is not needed in this case, its not game breaking bug or something like that.

Thanks

The mission assumes that you modify a ship for the race.
And this last ship you modified will be mentioned in the mission description.
The mission assumes that it is carried through continuously. :o
So just modify a new ship for the mission, then the mission description changes.
Yes, it is a small bug... :wink:
