    One question (to both of you) Did you have any issues with other parts of the story? Like PDA task not completing?

    According to the savegame the POI is actually not there.. but when i start a new game with the same seed the POI is actually there . So not sure what happens here. Will investigate further.

    Note there was a bug for that POI not being placed - but this should be fixed for any savegame that was started with 1.13.2 or newer.

    In you savegame on Nemoris I can you please use the console an type in "ents -all" > from the list is there a "Control Station" somewhere? Maybe at the end of the list?

    Can you use "stats" and send me the screenshot maybe from the info that are generated in the console?

    The only problem I had was with the "Operation Phoenix - New Terra" mission. I reported it here:
    https://empyriononline.com/threads/unable-to-continue-mission-due-to-missing-poi.102910/

    I was able to solve that one by resetting the mission and wiping the playfield.


    Let me understand that correctly: is it sufficient to start the mission after 1.13.2 (in an existing game), or do you mean the entire game must have been started before that? Because: I started my current game around mid September, which probably was pre-1.13.2.

    I now went back to an older backup, saved BEFORE the entire mission "Terminal Nexus Part 2" was started, and I was about to run the same test again, hoping it will work now. Or am I mistaken?

    When starting a NEW game today it should work. Resuming a savegame with the new version could possibly fix it if you did not visit the playfield before.

    As you had the same issue with another POI and the PDA in the savegame looks like it is broken for some reason...i assume we are seeing some kind of versioning issue.. at least i suspect that at the moment.

    Let me known if that works in your test anyways. If it is a config / game issue it would break again. If not resuming your previous savegame has a chance to not runnin the samen issue

    Oh... That would mean I would lose everything I achieved in the last 4 weeks since I started my game. It would take me at least another 3 weeks to arrive at a point where I could go and try that mission again... :eek:

    Do you think this idea would work:
    - I start a new game with the same seed (is that even possible?)
    - In the new game's savegame folder I find the files containing all data about Nemoris I (probably more than just a yaml file, I assume?)
    - I copy those files (and only those) to my current game
    - I then start the mission.

    (Just trying to find a way to continue without losing everything ;))

    Ps: in case you run into the same issue with your backup savegame please send it over from before the broken state. Then we might have a reproduction case

    @Hummel-o-War Sorry, ran into unexpected computer issues after a "quick" windows update... only to find the internet connection broken this morning

    Waiting for the internet to be available again - according to my ISP "later today". Sorry for the delay; can't wait to run the test

    Finally...
    I began with an old backup, which did not have "Terminal Nexus" started yet. Then ran through all the steps (made a few savegame backups on the way) until I finally landed on Nemoris I. Unfortunately nothing changed: the control station is still missing.

    [​IMG]

    I created 7 savegames:

    0: Before Terminal Nexus was started
    1: Traveling to Nemorta
    2: Meeting the Ambassador
    3: Traveling to Nemoris sector
    4: Entering Supergate
    5: Landing on Nemoris I
    6: Landed on Nemoris I

    Which of them do you want me to send you (besides No. 0)?

    Oh - and I checked and found: my entire game was indeed started AFTER the 1.13.2 path. So this should definitely not happen, right?
