How do you complete a mission when the mission menu isn't there?

Am I missing something? I've got a delivery mission, but there is no missions section in the menu at the destination. I still have 23h left. Has the method for completing missions changed?
 
Possibly the station has been hit with the UA's which takes services off line. What is the name of the system/station?
 
I have a similar problem. Took a bunch of delivery missions & got to my first destination, only to find that none of the people on the mission board have an option for me to deliver it.

I've also noticed that I have 3 new fines from companies in the system I took the missions from. Could this be a bug with the new mission system, or did I do something wrong? I have over plenty of time left on each of the missions & the icons still appear in Galaxy Map for the destinations.

That's exactly the same problem. There's simply no way to hand the mission in at the destination. There's no indication anything is unusual about the mission though.
 
OP To confirm the missions board is completely missing? If so I suspect UA's have been delivered by commanders. Taking services of line.

Happened to me a few times to CMDR.
Save your game and come back in to the same spot where the mission is supposed to be.
Sometimes it works that you can now drop off the mission.
Or jump to another system and come back....should work.
That's how i got around the bug.

Yes it's completely missing. What is a UA? Why doesn't the game tell me anything at all about what's going on?
 
That's not a work around but a clear indication of how broken the game/company is.

It is a direct insult to customers to ask them to actually pay to get in a beta, not reward them in any way and then pushing the new patch live without fixing the bugs THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED in the beta.

Shame to you FD.

Not sure this was reported in the beta CMDR.
I know i didn't report it as i didn't play the beata.
Perhaps this is my fault as I have found my original post was actually a "work around" for the problem. So I should be reporting it as a bug.
You can't expect FD to know of the bugs if we don't report them.
However I am lazy and loved playing the game with my limited time so wanted to spend my time playing rather than reporting bugs.
I thought that someone else would probably report it....cop out i know.

I tried restarting game first of all, then jumping out of the system and back again. Neither worked. Still no mission menu.

A terrible re-introduction to the game after a break of about 6 months I have to say.
 
Had this happen to me when I was trying to deliver 2 tonnes of cargo - the mission board was there, but no option to make the delivery.

Upon further examination of the mission, I realized that the reward included 4 tonnes of cargo - I only had 2 tonnes total. So I flew to an outfitter and upgraded my cargo hold to 4 tonnes, and when I returned I was given the option to deliver the goods.

Don't know if upgrading my hold fixed it, or if just leaving/returning fixed it.

My mission is for 16 tonnes, I have it all in the hold. There's no mission menu at all at the outpost I have to deliver it too. I've double checked everything.

Do you have the cargo space to receive the reward, I had the same problem the other evening, for a courier mission. As I had not read the mission briefing properly, that I needed 4 tonnes of cargo space free. The deliver option wont show up, I returned to orginal station changed ships and then was able to finish the mission.
 
No mission option on main menu is most likely UA's which is game design. The other problem with mission reward greater than cargo space is a known bug not fixed before go live. Having to log out and back in sounds like a bug.

I'd hardly call a missing menu without explanation game design. The forum won't let me type the words I'd call it.

The mission is just for credits as far as I can see.

Could it be because it's a delivery of cargo and there is no commodities at the station? Is that causing a bug?

UA have been around for a while now. Some massive topics about them on the forum. They also get mentioned in Galnet stories. Most old players know about them. I can see the point with new players not knowing. Not saying 100% that is the root cause but up to now missing mission board was UA damage.

I played since release but stopped for about 6 months, awaiting the missions update. I'm not going to scour a forum before playing a game just in case there's something obscure in the game that the game doesn't explain in game. I'm really annoyed to be honest.
