Boom data delivery

Gelb · Jun 1, 2016

I just took out a Boom Data delivery mission to Flammarion Hub 24 hour mission time limit ,but I shot over there only 14ly away but on arrival I opened up the mission Board and the mission is not there . Anyone else had a problem with these missions, I'm aware there is a problem with cargo mission runs unable deliver just wondering if the fault has spilled over into other missions

is there a material reward for completing the mission and do you have the space in your cargo hold if there is? hand in wont show up if anything prevents it from completing.

Yes. I've been getting that a lot. I found if I leave the station, dock elsewhere and then return the station the missions are there.

I've noticed that fines sometimes disappear and reappear. When they disappear from the tab I can't even pay them whilst docked. Then I log out and back in and it's there again. I wonder if that's related?

Haven't had a bugged mission yet. Stacking the booms as we speak.

You need cargo to receive certain rewards now, if you don't have cargo for a mission requiring it for reward, mission will not appear on the board, I was confused too at the beginning and I blamed FD for that, it's not a bug, just game mechanics changed and many of us don't know it in detail yet

In my experience so far, the only one that is bugged is the no skimmer scenario for kill skimmer missions & I've done over 100 boom data missions.. remember if the rewards include commodities, you need the requisite cargo space or the mission won't show on the board!

Cheers for that you may have it there although the mission says no cargo space required it has 4 Ion Distributors in the cargo section underneath , I will have to watch that in future as I am in a combat FDL no cargo capacity, will have to temporarily acquire some to end mission
