Dear all,

found this one and believe it to be a bug:
- got to a system (maybe first?) with Commonwealth Fortress
- docked and accepted first mission (patrol along nav points and star gates)
- did patrol tp nav alpha and first star gate
- flew (escaped while under heavy fire) through first star gate (back to previous system)
- returned after patching up my ship to finish mission

Problem is:
- nav markers on map for next mission objective are missing
- docking with fortress results in info that I am still on the mission which I should finish.

Also tried:
- found nav marker beta and next star gate, but mission still stays incomplete...

Save game available if required.

System setup:
- Transcendence v1.08b vanilla (no mods, fresh install)
- Windows XP SP3, 2GB RAM, DirectX v9.0c

Best regards,
Mike

P.S. Again, thanks for the great game - and best wishes for Kronosaur Productions!

The patrol mission means you have to get rid of all enemies near the beacons. Did you clear out enemy stations close to the markers and the gates?

I believe this is a bug. Probably when you left the system something got screwed up in the mission. I've opened up a ticket for it: http://wiki.neurohack.com/transcendence/trac/ticket/780

Thanks for posting about it and sorry for the problems.

No, because I had to flee before finishing the mission (= escape to the previous system).

But I will try to clear out everything that might be connected to the mission and see, if the mission is still solvable (even without mission map marker present anymore).

Yeah, I did the same thing (flee and lose the marker). I killed stations and then resolved the mission.
