Is sirius permit bugged?

[VR] Mad Mike · Mar 10, 2017

Never had a problem with other permits before and i have a few.

I am allied with sirius corp and at a station where they are controlling faction but no joy in 3 board refreshes.

I dont really want to wait if its not going to work, i would do more missions but at over 10k LS from the star i dont want to do this if bugged or i am missing summat

Just the RNG in action, keep at it one will show up before long.

Maybe do another couple of missions for something to do while you wait?

The Sirius permit is not bugged, do you know how long it should take to get the mission?

Codger · Mar 10, 2017

It's currently bugged.

Hi all,

I am aware of an issue occluding rank-up missions (Which includes permit missions).

I have a fix which should be going live for 2.3 at the latest.

Thanks,
Dom

Thanks. This was what i suspected. So it seems its possible to get it but also bugged so possible not to.

No it is not, they are just general a holes down there. Did a lot for them, they loved me, made me allied and then I ditched some of the useless cargo...
Low and behold!!, Galaxy wide fine and bounty (could not be bothered to go back and pay) and more or less hunted everywhere, could hardly make a jump without being interdicted, every second jump.
Suicidewinder, I was not doing that for 6 days.
Stay away, not nice people.
Ahhh permit!: Switch stations, it will pop.

Cheers Cmdr's

Yes, it can still pop, there's just a bug that makes it less likely than it should be.

This is correct.

I just got my permit yesterday. In total I would assume I was waiting 6-18hours ingame time for it after reaching Allied Status with Sirius.
The final invitation for Mr. Quendt took anouther 1,5h.

The "bug" is just, that both invitation missions are very rare. Some have luck, I didn't had luck. Keep trying. It's still working.

I had to run several more missions for Sirius Corp. before Palin contacted me. Pretty sure I needed to be in Sirius system to get the invite, or at least be picking up my missions there to get it . . .

nordish · Mar 10, 2017

be careful: Don't mix the 2 permissions.

Permission 1: Access to Sirius System for reaching allied-status with Sirius Corp from a station (bulletin board) with Sirius Corp influence.

Permission 2: Access to Marco Qwent from one of the two stations bulletin boards in the Sirius System.

Edit: Both took a certain time for me, especially Permission 1, even after reaching allied status.

Main faction Sirius, 10k ls. Are you in Procyon by any chance?

[VR] Mad Mike · Mar 10, 2017

Lol I was

CMDR Generic EventHandler · Mar 10, 2017

I got mine a couple of weeks ago, one of the stations does not give out the permit. Fly around and you will find it.

They created Sirius to really test the mettle of Cmdr's, you need the patience of a rock to get it.
