    Mode: Survival
    Mode: Single Player
    SEED-ID: 860234

    Reproducibility:
    Severity: Minor - Temporary storyline halt

    Type: POI spawn, trigger possibly?

    Summary: Prison complex for story mission "Tales of the Past" did not appear.

    Description: During completion of Talon Storyline mission "Tales of the Past" at chapter "Excavation" after having returned to the monument tower there appears to have been no spawn of the prison complex. Chapters "The Prisoner" ,"The Legacy", "Close Escape" were therefore necessary skip points. Confirmed that no facility spawned via GM in vicinity.

    Upon load of save, console reports the following:
    PDA: Playfield POI 'Prison' not found
    Net Playfield GameOp 'DevicePower: Prison; ExplSensor; false' reports error ParameterError

    Steps to Reproduce: Play through Talon storyline "Tales of the Past"

    Apologies, playfield regarding this error was "Meliwro", the swamp starter.

    I can confirm this as well, different playfield but again the prison POI didn't show up.

    Same here. There's a lovely empty field (looks like a bowling green) with a marker that says something like Talon Unknown when you ping it, but no building. The prison is underground.

    Further note it seems this particular error of the prison POI not showing up is related to starter planets that aren't the temperate Akua starter planet. Like say if you start on the desert or swamp planet you may get the error like in my screenshot, I was on the swamp starter planet.

    Edit:

    Just to confirm this I started a new world with the Temperate start and did the quest up to the prison spawn point where the error occurred. It gave me no error at all.

    Again the error you likely will only see it happen on the non-temperate starter planets.

    The dialog text says to go back to the nearby village, the prompt (right side of screen) says to go back to the tower. No prison, swamp start.
