May I add that they offered various rewards for the same mission so it was very convenient to find the one you preferred. Please let the rest of the factions be good samaritans and offer rewards for fixing their neighbours' settlements.
Elite Dangerous Odyssey: Server Update
- Thread starter sallymorganmoore
- Start date
@Sally (or whomever sees this next): I didn't see this mentioned yet, but there are duplicate missions to the same settlements. Wasn't this supposed to be the changed after Update 5?

Also, no support missions out of Eratosthenes Ring, but that's one data point.

They've been broken for a while before the update and are on the issue tracker.

Will you fix the 'mono' stereoscopic issue on some rocks on every planet ?
Rocks visible in one eye, shadow in the other .. and not always the same side.
Very trippy, but I don't think that's the way it should be ?

Well, in that case you might have to go and find another faction to help out. There's lots!
I can't understand people that buy a game about space travel and insist on not travelling anywhere.
First, I love that Frontier is keeping in mind that having infinite missions towards one settlement would create locations like Ceos/Sothis where only having one type of mission and valid location basically meant the entire mission board would be copies of it.
Having only one mission targeting each settlement, however, might be too restrictive to non-combat mission pools and ending up with no missions at all. So there are two things that could be looked into:
Having only one mission targeting each settlement, however, might be too restrictive to non-combat mission pools and ending up with no missions at all. So there are two things that could be looked into:
- Increasing the max range for missions. Players easily rock 30 ly jump ranges nowadays, and that can go upwards to 50+. Apex also allows for 100 ly taxis. The number of jumps is really a very insignificant part of the time spent in missions.
- More than 1 mission per settlement for mission types that make sense. Collections, for example, could be more interesting if you had 2 or 3 per settlement.
- Government and/or superpower alignment-type collaboration so it's not only same-faction missions (at least in the case there are no eligible destinations for same-faction). So a federal corporation would be willing to help another federal corporation, empire patronages, independent communists, etc.

I've been travelling around since Thursday's patch and found exactly one mission in all that time, and that one was because another commander told me more or less where to go. "Go and find another one" doesn't help when they're suddenly that scarce.
Have they increased the chance of finding Power reculators inside secure lockers in the Power control center? I have found several degraded power regulators there. Or is there any plan with the degraded ones, convert them to regular? Or be able to trade them for regular?
Commanders, I know I talk a lot but I don't want you to think I'm just throwing the towel in here - but my day is about to end (I've got a final meeting of the day and then I really need to feed my tummy and sleep...TMI?)
Thank you so much for the feedback and conversation AGAIN today. I've taken lots of notes from this thread which will definitely prove really useful with my further adventures dev side for you. I may even pester a few of you further if I need a teeny bit more clarity
Have a super evening/day everyone o7 See you very soon, obviously.
Thats for the updates through the day,
take it another therapy session from having to deal with the forums
What would be good is having the system map or left panel outright indicate if a settlement is offline, so you know immediately whether or not there's likely to be restore missions in the area. Same as how the map points a big honkin' arrow at planets that have surface CZs.
Better tools for finding stuff are always good.
Speaking of which, I would really like a way to check on blueprints and how my inventory compares to the required materials without going all the way back to the engineer or relying on the information found on third party sites.
Hmm, there are a few, but still WAAAAY more scavenger kill missions - pretty sure you used to be offered both and they would filter out when you took a mission at a base
I've travelled to about a dozen stations in the past couple of hours and couldn't find any.Let me know if that's still the case
I found two yesterday after as much wandering.
I thought you guys were aware of it, restore missions are nowhere to be found.
I like little things like these.
may brebus bless you
Hey Sally , don't get burnt out - look after you!Commanders, I know I talk a lot but I don't want you to think I'm just throwing the towel in here - but my day is about to end (I've got a final meeting of the day and then I really need to feed my tummy and sleep...TMI?)

You're doing an amazing job, along with the other CMs and dev teams.
Factions on both of those systems are not in States which shutdown their settlements.
Checking the factions for both systems, only Ngobe Jet Comms Exchange is on Civil Unrest in Hyades Sector HR-W d1-59.
But, according to Inara, it has no settlements (I did not check in game).
So, in both cases, according to the new rule that only the owner should generate restore missions, it makes sense.
To increase the chances of finding support/restore/reactivation missions, I highly recommend going to a system where factions are in a negative state (Civil Unrest, Bust, Lockdown, Natural Disaster, Outbreak, etc).
Minor Factions on Civil Unrest near Ngobe.
Minor Factions on Civil Unrest near Azaladshu.
BTW, you don't have to use Inara to see these. They're available using the filters in the Galaxy Map. I just find it more convenient.
EDIT: Civil Unrest has settlements Powered Down + On Fire. Lockdown for instance is just Powered Down. Not 100% sure about the other states.
