Just return from buried tomb with the technical artefact, when speaking with kezzel I get a QoC error, log attached. Single player, seed 242729, temperate start. One thing that may have caused this is I manually completed a previous step in this mission. I spoke to Kessel without the anomaly report and thought it bugged, manually completed the mission before realising i did not have the report, then went back to him with the report to get the dialogue. This may have caused the PDA to go out of sequence or something. The mission to get the tech artefact work fine though.
Update - Restarting the game fixed the dialogue, however, the mission never completed, I did not get the reward and the teleporter behind the cargo boxes did not activate. Manually completing the mission did give me the reward but the teleporter still did not activate.
Thx for reporting back. I found sometimes there seems to be an issue when going through missions in godmode or in combination with (or reasoned by) manually completing the tasks ... If you find the time to go through the mission again, would be great (as i cannot reproduce the issue at the moment I am afraid)
Went through it quickly a couple of times, not sure if it's 100% the same thing Spanj had...and I did use god mode to nip around a fair bit with a bit of manual completing to get to the relevant point. I tried it both ways, leaving the report behind and manually completing it and bringing the report with me. On both occassions it allowed me to proceed to this point, after you've been inside the burial chamber and got the artifact in your inventory. However, after you speak to him on this occassion this is where it didn't go any further. I got the countdown and the little Ida popup, but that's it. Didn't get a CoQ message though

Have you kept the sequence - Guard to first Floor Commander - Second Floor Kezzel? Did you have the Report of the Doctor in your Backpack?
omg-- no I forgot the report.... that explains it... oh well I skipped it and the rest of the mission loaded alright.
