    I am afraid I still cannot reproduce that issue. Maybe you can send in a video what you are doing shortly before and after the "battlestations" dialogue arrives?

    Hello,
    Is there a way to upload my entire compressed saved file ? Too bad your bug form template has an upload size limit !
    For the record, I did retried just after the latest january small update, but as I figured it didnt change anything.

    As I'm currently exchanging on another post (base flooded) there are often errors in the console when I enter a new playfield, even if I start a new fresh game.

    I noticed that many stories triggers are too fragile. I guess that you or another dev make them and test them with YOUR way of play, so that if we don't follow exactly some planified path, they can break easily.

    For example, I'm currently playing a game someimes in multi, sometimes alone, and some story quests that I left for many reasons were hard to trigger again, even if they were already started. Relmoading the game in solo/multi randomly reactivated them !

    And often, when I'm going on the titan wreck, I can easily break the quest, because I'm going into the consoles in the wrong order...
    I noticed that the maintenance console had a triggering zone too small ! I had to stand just on a specific tile to make it work !

    This bug appears only if you play in german - or maybe in other languages. If you switch to english before starting the quest it works without any issues.

    Yes, it won't surprise me that it could work like that and it would be the same for many quests, as they're often seem to be broken for me.

    I play in french. When I report the errors, the devs who must be playing in their specific config environment should be playing in english... I guess they don't test every localized game version.

    Sorry to say, but I wonder if the DEVS have coded their quests with some objects/triggers ID reference subject to localization translations OR to IDs changes in some config ecf files during updates. It would be such a mess to maintain and basic coding error !
