    Type: Bug in mapping system - capital vessel missing from map

    Summary: The Capital Vessel is missing from the map and the system can't find it unless you're extremely close to it (within a few meters)

    Description:

    This is my 3rd playthrough so I'm familiar with the behaviour of the game in this area. I've noted on the latest playthrough that I ran into problems with too many fireable weapons on the CV - I believe there's a 21 limit or something - so I reduced those (it was causing items to fall off the item bar in the cockpit).

    Since then however - I have noted that the CV no longer appears on the maps, it only tags with the lighter green text when I'm extremely close too it. This is causing severe problems as I can't use a SV to explore a planet and return to the CV in orbit. I have seen the CV from a moderate distance and it has no indicator or marker on it in the mapping system despite repeated scans.

    This breaks the game for me and I can't continue.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    1) Leave CV in SV and fly elsewhere
    2) Return and scan the entire area around where the CV was left
    3) CV does not appear and is nearly impossible to find (this was not the case in earlier playthroughs)

    Thanks Taelyn, which file do I need to attach in the save directory set? A zip of the savegame directory (for that save) is beyond the attachment limit for your site here.

    I've also notice that other targets aren't highlighting properly after a scan from the capital ship - tried jumping to another system and had the same problem... Not sure where to go from here, any advice would be appreciated.
