access to the dweller without doing the unlock

Hey there.

Last night I decided to dust of my free Epic CMDR. When I got it I had planned to use it as long time explorer, my plan was a trip to beagle point (which I didn't make with my bubble main) via Colonia and Sag A* (which both I had visited with my main before). As plans usually go, my CDMR sat out in the black about 7000 ly from Colonia, waiting for me for the last 8 months, because I was busy with other stuff. Before departing I made enough money to get a decent ship, engineered my FSD and unlocked the FSD booster. For that I got Grade 5 access to Elvira Martuuk. I remember I also gave the one Meta Alloy to Felicity Farseer. I had no need for other engineers, so I didn't bother with any unlocking.

What I really cannot remember is dealing in any black markets, let alone paying 500.000 credits to The Dweller... and my EDSM flight log doesn't show a visit to Wyrd. Yet out of the blue, about two hours into my play session right after completing a jump I got the message that I now had access to the dweller. The "Engineers" section in the right hand panel also clearly states that I fulfilled the requirements.

What's happening? Anyone experienced something similar before? Should I worry that my frontier data is messed up? Should I file a ticket or take it as a freebie?

Oh, and this was in Odyssey. Yes, I bought it for my Epic CMDR yesterday. Because reasons. I blame the pretty pictures in yesterday's @Bigmaec 's thread. And it was on sale. I made a detour to Gandharvi and bought two suits. And the cowboy outfit :cool:. I have to say, atmospheric planets are really pretty, much more so nearer to the center of the galaxy. But boy, the VR performance is atrocious even out there :confused:.

Thanks!
 
Known issue since the Odyssey release

There's a few posts in that report suggesting that it's reproducible in certain circumstances.

Probably not high on Frontier's list to fix as it only affects new players and hey, free engineer!
 
Hey there,
I wanted to unlock the dweller after i got the message to visit him. Looking on youtube to see how this is done i followed the same way en landed on the planet where heshould be. Instead of paying him 500.000 i now need 1 sulphur. Can't find a raw merchadist where you can buy this. is th gameplay on the dweller changest??

Provide Photo...
While doing so youll likely notice the error you made...
 
So you now know the error you made right..
Unlocking is not the same as Using the engineer...
If you are using the engineer, you have already got passed the unlocking stage.. .
Now you have the fun part of Collecting Mats to use them at the engineer...

So now you need guides on collecting mats... and material traders that swap materials for each other...
