Svalbard Explorer not completing

[Iconian]

First of all, I believe my version of Transcendence is 1.9.402. I downloaded it in 2022, but hadn't gotten around to playing it until the last couple weeks.

I'm currently in the Heretic system. I escorted the Svalbard Explorer around the stations around the star, and destroyed the Pteravores. But now the mission isn't progressing further. Instead, the explorer heads to the stargate to the previous system, and leaves. If I leave through the stargate as well and then return, the Svalbard Explorer does the same thing again, apparently stuck in a loop. I tested several times and exited the game a couple times, hoping it would work right, but it has not. Does anyone know what's gone wrong here?

Something in the Svalbard Explorer mission has glitched by the sound of it. The ship doesn't normally leave the system.
No promises but I'll have a look at it if you attach the 'debug.log' file from the Transcendence folder. Also the relevant '.sav' file from the Games folder.

I'd started thinking this forum was dead. Glad to see there are some people still around.

I've attached the debug.log file, but when I tried to attach the .sav file, the forum gave me this error:

Invalid file extension: Iconian-7261.sav

Try compressing the sav filei nto a zip file. It should attach then although it might be too big.
If it is too big, create a "New record" in the "Transcendence Dev" section of the Ministry, ministry.kronosaur.com.
Explain what happened and attach the sav there.

Thank you, I just uploaded the files, here:

Working sav file over on the Ministry. Not sure why it was buggy. Gremlins, I guess!

Hey, thanks for your help with that. I booted the game up and it worked fine, finished the game in just a few minutes. Thanks for your help
