Cant hand in missions....

I can not hand in my rescue passenger missions. Anyone else have a problem with this?
When I click on the mission board and then on Passenger missions, I am not able to hand in the mission because I get a "Stand by" animated logo and then I am returned to the starport UI.
 
Yes I am.... I just came here to see if others are having the same problem.

But I don't have missions to complete - I'm at Bernoulli Landing trying to pick up passenger missions for the AXI effort. Was working fine a few trips and now it does exactly as you say. I've tried relogging, solo, quitting to desktop and back. Nothing.

I just managed to hand in the missions. After 30 minutes of trying... that is why I went here to ask if anyone else have had this problem. Glad I am not alone. Hopefully FDev sees this thread and can act on it. And like you I tried all tricks of reloging, even leaving the Rescue ship into Supercruise and go back... nothing worked...Maybe the serves are being overworked at the monent?

Same! All is working for me again. On the AXI discord I've seen a few other experiencing the issue off and on today, so something may be up or just busy as you say.
 
And now I have a full passenger cabin that I can't find any way of emptying, not even for cat food;deep joy.

Plenty of "workarounds" on the web from 6 years ago - none of which now work. Looks like I may need to expensively suicide - thanks FD

Yup, mission 'servers' down at present for me. Was fine half an hour ago.

Seriously, this nonsense needs sorting out. Preferably before Christmas... :rolleyes:
 
Y'know, when I was doing backend server admin, it was standard practice for all servers at the various companies we supported to be monitored 24/7 on relevant ports, and any lack of response over a 5 min window was red flagged with an accompanying alert text sent to those on out of hours to investigate and rectify...

Anyway...still no mission access here.

Sorry, refugees...
 
It's strange. It may be my lack of knowledge as to how these things work, but why is it that it's down for some people and not others?

Why is it that sometimes, I jump to a different system and the missions are working?

Why is it, that sometimes, they just suddenly come back on line? And then go back off again?

Is someone in the computer tape room shuffling the punched cards?

It's quite often like this because there are many 'servers' trying to serve our tasks in game. They all have special roles, some takes care of the market, some with the BGS, some deal with how you meet other commanders etc. They all run in different regions of Amazon datacenters, all over the world.

The load they are under is constantly shifting, some minor bugs/issues creep in over time. Then some of these servers start performing their duty in a bad manner.
Some of you have different Internet Providers, some good with IPv4, some are good with IPv6 as well. This plays a role when your game talks to the servers.
It's spanning the globe, you'll get a bit of the total sum of complexity, acting as different kind of misbehavior from these serving fellas. At different times.

Troubleshooting these issues is a complex thing quite often, it's not just a "single misbehaving server in UK". Thats why FDev needs to investigate and uses a bit longer to figure out whats going on.

I vote for more biscuits to the troubleshooting team, they have plenty of work ahead of them. :)

.. yeah the answer is all kinds of things and these lines of question spring to mind when investigating a problem report.

But the goto is usually operator error with the punch cards handling, like you suggest, once the user being crazy is eliminated.

I'm currently only logging into my 3 accounts first thing in the morning UK time & getting my free Xmas ARX then logging off again......still annoyed about the War reset, but sounds like I'm making the correct decision here ;)
