So it has now been 2 weeks with the station I finished not being operational. We have members of our group that finished tier 2 stations this week and they are active, however a Tiers asteroid station I completed 2 weeks ago now is STILL not finished. Just wondering why, thank you?
Asteroid Station
- Thread starter BlackBeardActul
- Start date
It is in the rings of a giant as it would not allow me to place the initial station.
Awesome story and glad to see your first world problem is that the NAV beacon which does not even matter anymore other than to start the show. My station is still not done even as of today.
I finished mine on 03.05 (Wednesday) and after the next day tick, everything was operational with a population of 17k. Missions, services, concourse, shipyard, commodities, contacts, etc. all go. Only thing wrong is my Nav beacon is invisible.
In case case can you give us some info?
Is it an asteroid station?
You said it had shipyard etc. Does that include outfitting, and UC? (Universal Cartographics / exploration)
What other installations do you have in the system?
How many of those installations orbit the same body that the station does (or are on the surface of that body)?
1. Yes, it is an Asteroid station, as pertaining to the OP thread topic.
2. Yes, every service I listed, and Outfitting is available. Universal Cartographic is there but greyed out.
3. I have no other installations besides the Asteroid station orbiting in the inner ring of the first gas giant.
4. I'm not building anything else until Trailblazers is fixed, bug free and supplied with in-depth instructions
describing its mechanics. I also want an undo button and the ability to move things around as I see fit.
It is a convoluted mess ATM and I'm not wasting my time experimenting for nothing. Even if/when it will work
eventually, nothing you build is "yours" anyways, making it pointless to me. I am perfectly happy with the
470,000 Starports, Outposts, Asteroid Bases, Surface Ports, and Settlements that are already in the Bubble.
Happy hauling..
@CMDR X It sounds like your asteroid base was your primary port then. Perhaps that makes the difference?
Is anyone's asteroid base the primary port yet shipyard, outfitting etc is disabled?
(Mine is not the primary port, and it lacks shipyard, outfitting, and UC, despite a high tech outpost as the primary port, perhaps because the outpost is in an unrelated orbit)

Mine was not the primary port either and "Led's Rock" also has a functioning shipyard. This could be Tech Level related. I believe your colony needs to be at a certain tech level to get a shipyard. (...and I don't know what that specific number is - or where to find it.) Sorry if this is not particularly helpful but adding a tech focused settlement or such seems to push my colony past the necessary level.
Since it is my first and only port, I think it's safe to say that it is my primary port. I was anticipating that when starting and I'm OK with it. Especially now that everything else is broken except Asteroid bases.
a station is fully finished when you can access all the npcs at the concourse.
When you can buy guns/suits etc.
to access some things you need +tech level
On a speculative note, if your ownly build is an asteroid base, your standard of living is -4.
There might be a penalty for going negative on this stat.

All my concourse NPCs work. I can buy guns/suits, take Apex and buy ships. My bartendress is a hottie but she won't sell me a beer. I don't care about the standard of living. It's a garage for my mining ships nothing else.
There is one anarchy faction on the station at 12% influence. I'm working on pumping them up.
I hope the Nav beacon does show up soon but as a compromised.
