FD, I'm begging you, please fix alt rewards breaking the turn in!

[Thebadmf]

I ticketed this on the 17th Dec (6585) and it's still going on.

Happens a lot on Slave missions (shhh). I'm offered an alt turn in (that I rarely want to accept) and can then no longer turn in the mission at the original location. It's the Alt or abandon.

Surely this one can't be that hard to fix?

If I had a Clipper I'd be begging for Gutayama seats... look at that Faulcon Delacy seat.. eww

Oh, that is a bug? This happened to me, but I just assumed it was the talking unmanned drone spaceships being jerks as usual.

 

[Thebadmf]

I know, right? Needs some nice buckets with a 5 point harness.

Oh, that is a bug?

you betcha. you effectively end up working for the enemy.

I get this happening a lot too. I just ignore it and don't open the message and deliver the cargo. Also if I am ANARCHY space I blow the offending ship to dust.

 

[Thebadmf]

I hadn't opened this message and it still went pear shaped.

Happens a lot with me, I dont take those missions any more,, as I dont know which ones are working.

 

[Negative Entropy]

does not make sense to stop at random USSes on the way to deliver your illegal cargo.

For what it's worth you're not alone. I've not reported the last two but I now have enough information to submit a meaningful bug report. Since each carries a rep penalty for non-delivery it's becoming a right royal PITA - not to mention cluttering up your otherwise tidy transaction list.
