Hello! I am trying to accomplish those covert missions for the suit engineer, but when trying to find the object in the location the blue mission ball appears on different placers than written in the upper right corner - or more strange - text says "get obj from board 5 in energy station and the monitor shows the mission ball on the suit charger...- this happens nearly every timde -grrr. Any suggestions what s wrong? 1000 thx + Greeeez! DB
Covert mission objects not there
- Thread starter tasteless
- Start date
I'm guessing this is a translation, since "energy station" and "suit changer" don't exist (AFAIK).
It sounds like the mission is telling you to retrieve an object from a "locker" in the "power building". If that is the case, it is pointing you to the correct location. Just open the locker. The object should be there, with a mission icon on it's overlay.
If you have to enter a restricted area to get to the locker, it's definitely the correct location.

Never make assumptions about what users have done. Always clarify. 
yeh, bad translation- I am Austrian, sorry,- but it was not pointing to the correct location, how can it be, that it appears at the suit charger (or however it might be calledf in English) - I will post a screenshot when it happens next time - Greeez!
No worries. Bad translation was better than no translation
I have seen it mark the wrong location very rarely. I just boarded my ship, went to supercruise, and then returned. I believe that fixed it every time.
More often, I've found that the location was on the other side of a wall. It only appeared to have marked the wrong location. I was just looking in the wrong place.
yeh, tx man, thats about what happens - going to supercruise helps is a ghreat info, did not assume that its somehow like not getting landing permission sometimes! lol, the last time it worked properly but I was 2 stupid to get it right! - Greeez + 1000 tx!No worries.

Hey Steve - this is the typical appearance of this strangeness - these 4 screenshots are from the same mission from one monitor in the settlement...

It's been too long since I've done these but I thought you didn't get a specific location unless there was a mission update when you landed. Can't read German but it doesn't look like that happened.
I've had this happen, right down to duplicate mission objective points, if I've logged out and in while in the settlement. In those cases, all lockers and containers are also empty. The only solution seemed to be leaving the settlement in my ship and coming back. I guess something about settlement generation doesn't trigger correctly when you log in on foot in the settlement itself for these missions.
