    I'm not on the Beta channel on Steam, so as far as I know, it's Public. 1.5.1 3384 per Main Menu (just restarted to check, so I probably was on 1.5 as I left it running from yesterday and just closed it an hour or two ago, I get auto updates)

    It looks like I found an error in the end of Chapter 2: The Assistant

    Game version 1.5.1. 3384

    I went to burial chamber, dug ramp on the side of the room with giant snake statue and found there 1 Technical Artifacts, 3 Luxury Goods, 5 Liquors. I got back to Kezzel but nothing happens after dialog with Kezzel. He said that he gives me teleporter and I can use hidden teleporter but teleporter is inactive and there is no teleporter in my inventory.

    Should I check last checkbox manually?

    There is a countdown after the talk that leads to the mission being completed.

    If you have been connected to a Container on your Vessel(?) you may look there for the Teleporter. Otherwise...even if your Inventory has not enough Space(Mass/Volume active) the Teleporter gets stuffed into it anyway OR drops as loot Box to the Ground.

    I spent more than 2 hours, so, it's not looking like this timer is working. Also I can run the dialog again with same result. It looks like something is stuck.

    Found a reason. It's because I first saw and talked to Kezzel, not base commander. As a result I had stuck first "speak with Kezzel" task. After manually checking it I got tasks to go to burial site etc. And was able to finish quest.

    Thanks for the post with the tip... but I was looting directly into my inventory.

    It didn't happen my latest game, or the MP game I'm in, so either @Hummel-o-War found a fix for it, or I failed to trigger it... this time.

    Yeah.. having that stuff in the backpack triggers the dialogue... I added several notes in messages and popus to not forget about that, though :D :D

    Doing the Root Beer line, in the story I saw a weird alert when I paid the Pirates, and also when I spoke to the Inferno Club Bartender.

    Both times it triggered an alert "Warning! Freighter will self destruct in 5 minutes! " (not exact wording)

    Huh? What's that about?? WHAT Freighter??

    Is this a bug in the new storyline I need to report?

    Also - I didn't get the Epic Drill from the Bartender, instead I got a POSTER??!!? I'm officially pissed, I LOVE my Epic Drill!! :p:D What's up with THAT? The Bartender said he has something my Crew mates left but I didn't get the drill.

    Finally, although the IDA told me about the next step - Find the Snow planet, it didn't give me a mission checkbox on the top right of my HUD. Is this by design?

    Your inventory possibly has been full?

    The indication given is intentional. For 1.5 the first 5-6 missions do not start after the previous ends anymore (reduce pressure, leave it more to the player where to engage next )

    Epic Drill - HOLD THE PRESSES! No accounting for idiocy ... It was there, but in my Toolbar along with my standard drill. So no problem on that. :rolleyes: Sorry I wasted your time replying :eek:

    Auto mission start - Got it, Thx.

    Any idea on the self destructing Freighter warning??

    No, but there is a bugfix I have seen that should fix that.

    About drill: no worries :D

    • Updated Planet Remnant (Story) to work as Polaris faction property w/o penalties for playthrough (please retest!)
    Whew, thank you! This one mission completely destroyed my standing with Polaris
