Skipped over? As in not a mission you need to play anymore?

Edit- Just replaced F-25 Data 1 and 2 as instructed by Bomb (or should I say Rob becuase I know his real name now ). Opened EVO and used a earlier created pilot. I still got the damn deflect fleet mission. Luckily, I read from F-25 2.0 Released thread that the real mission requirement was to observe Zachit and got the mission finally to complete. The ship count has also be decreased from 8 to 4, for which thanks go to Rob. Still, its too hard to do it in a Crescent Warship without spending minutes to renegerate your shields. I have done the Adzgari string and know that even a Crescent Warship with all speed upgrades, Dospect Armor, and all shield upgrades will get dropped heavely against one Zidara, gets to armor after 2, and explodes after three. So unless not creating a new pilot did this, it has not been skipped.

That is what I did, General. I created a new pilot, and the Deflect Zidagar Fleet never shows up. Use PilotBUilder, General.

Okay... will remember for future pilots. Right now, I did the damned mission by observing Zachit. And the first bug, report this to Rob (aka Bomb): DSN-8789 has a planet, blue ball on the radar, but I cant see the planet if I so parked on the top on the planet according to the radar.

Edit- Found the second bug. Its a grammar error. When you accept the Meet the Kytaan at UX-013 mission, the mission accept text is cut off. Heres the the last two phrases, where its cut off: "Excellent. The Kytaan have offered to meet our men on the neutral, uninhabitated world of X-013, in the Central Great Expanse. Be careful <PN> are, by all accounts the greatest conquerors of either of our galaxy's h From here, the text has disappered.

And Edit again. The mission complete text has typos, lacking a period and a citation mark. "<PN>, we are indeed agressive with dealing with our enemies, yes, but only to protect ourselves. If you are ever interested in joining our glorious cause, come see me at Kytarr

The Imperial Dominion ships speak Latin when hailed. Very funny Rob, your sense of humor strikes again. Peculiar.

I got the missions and the wordings was correct. I will talk to Bomb.

Oh, so it was wrong only in my case? But thanks anyway. Heres a new bug again, the 4 th in a row. This is a leftover from 2.0. Both Fusion Rocket and Rocket Launcher cost 10 credits. Since I know outfits cant be practically free, they need to be corrected to more reasonable values. A example is 10.000 credits for the launcher, and 1.000 for the ammo.

Edit- Looks its swamped with bugs. Explore the new galaxy II has a spelling error. Several hours later you've completed the log of your trip thus far activate the data padd containing your next mission objectives. Also, the shipyard description of Imperial Heavy Fighter says it has a turret. What turret? It doesnt have any turrets in the info window, only cannons.

Edit 2- and the bug reports roll in. The Independent system of DSN-8871 sells a ship called Hauler, but it doesnt got any ship description. Also, the weapons in the Info window has got a typo. It says Imperial Fighterss. Is UX-444 supposed not have escorts in the bar, or this a bug?

I should get a pers or something for all my efforts. Sheesh, rolling in 10 bug reports in one day. :mad: The newest one is: a missing letter and a missing period. Suddenly, you receive a message, and your heart starts to race. Who knows you are here? Whomever it is, wants to see you in the ba

And on and on in the endless series... in Investigate lost fleet mission you have 4 Derelict ships. They are disabled as Derelicts are supposed to be. Yet they show that they have shields in the status bar Shield 100% Derelict Shield 96% Derelict... which makes it even weirder. How can Derelicts be damaged if they cant fight? The last bug I report before I will go and get some sleep. Im on Search for Kytaan Fleet mission. Im supposed to land on Station AK-12. Except that the planet doesnt exist anymore despite existing earlier. It doesnt even show on the radar map... the system is empty!

Don't worry. I am keeping a look out for Rob.

Interesting, General. I just happen to be on that mission. Where is it located by the way?

Sheesh, I leave for one day and you all decide to go crazy.

Okay, here goes. I'm tired and a bit drunk so forgive me if my answers are brief.

1. Blue ball. Dsn -8789. Gotcha.

2. For this case (the text cut off) and all others, it is only because your pilot name is too long. If it's more than 8-10 characters some of the mission text will be bumped.

1. Stupid Fusion rockets... Those are the old prices from a few hundred years ago.. Inflation's about to set in, I think.

2. Text error. Got it.

3. Turret error. Got it.

4. Hauler description misplaced. Got it.

5. Imperial fighterss fixed.

BTW- please don't edit those posts. I'll need your exact reports when I get around to fixing these all tomorrow, so keep em on the board for now. Thanks. If you find more, make a new post.

1. Interesting. The derelicts have shields? Very odd.

2. AK-12 is gone. Blown up. Kaput. That's the point of the mission. The Kytaan got rid of it. HA. One that ISN'T my fault.

Time for bed, bug fixes in the morning. Keep up the good work!

I agree with General. I just did that mission, and they had 100% Shields, but they weren't moving at all. Now, what should I do about the blasted rating for Kytaan? Felon....

Its a another bug. And a very severe one. :eek: By EV logic, they shouldnt hate you unless you kill or disable or do the string of their enemy (Querin). I haven't fired a single shot at them (they hated me before I had gotten to their space), and nor have I done the Querin missions as I guess im still on intro missions yet. The Querin and Centaurans and Querin hate me for same non-reason too (Offender). This is a game-crippling bug (as severe as a scenario bug can get), so it should be immediately fixed. It makes me unable to start major strings, unable to get the good Centauran ships, and unable to get good tech. Mmm... Seeker Drones, the ultimate second weapon. Oh, and my Zachit escorts fired at my the three aforementioned governments even if I wasnt attacked, or even if my status wasnt bad enough to be attacked (Criminal) in Explore the new galaxy II.

Help! Im on the Rescue Witness mission. I boarded the Derelict. Out of curiousity if the mission would fail if blown up, I toasted the Xarnez Carrier. When I returned, the mission didnt complete (no text). When I got the mission again, the ship is nowhere to be found. Please do not laugh at my curiousity; just give me a second chance by fixing this someway.

------------------

I just looked in ResEdit for the first Kytaan mission, Eliminate Querin strike force. It has a CompReward of 10 and CompGovt of 51. Since there is no government with ID 51, this is a bug (incorrectly inserted field). Perhaps you meant the Kytaan?

Bribe your way onto Kytarr Minor, and buy a fake ID. Clears your record with them. Or kill Querin ships in their border worlds. Works either way and clears your record very fast. The only reason the Kytaan have an inherent hate for the player is because they are inherently distrustful of outsiders. Don't know why the compgovt thing is wrong- but if you do the math 128+51= 179, which is the government of the Kytaan. Why the number is in the index, I'm not too sure. It might have been from a program I was using to edit the missions..

Abort it, try again. And from this point on, please send bug reports in the form of emails- it isn't fair to the other people on this board to have all these posts for the beta. If you don't have an account go to a free site (yahoo, hotmail, etc..) and get one. I'll be locking this topic shortly.
