I guess i broke Sol?

I've searched the forums but i dont see any posts about what im having happen to me.

I was doing rescue missions from the burning station and i did it fine for a whole day. Banking that rep for the Fed grind. Next day i did a few then all of a sudden, No Missions. "You are worthy of your exalted status. But no missions are available"

Every single station and settlement in all of SOL is now blank on the missions boards and the passenger boards.

I thought maybe i hit some kind of banked rep wall, so i warped off and found and completed several follow up rank up missions. Got to 9% in Lt. Came back to SOL and nothing. Nothing anywhere. I have tried relogging, reinstalling, rebooting, full house power cycle. I have tried doing many many missions in other systems of all kinds and still, no missions in SOL.

This has been an issue for 4 real days now. I cant figure out what i could do to change this. Is this bug report worthy? Is my particular account broken? I've searched and searched in forums and for 2 of these 4 days i have been doing nothing but various "fixes" other people used but i never saw a single post or report of CMDR's having this issue for 4 full days.

So this post is my plea, any other ideas (aside from the hope the Thursday maintenance fixes it) to fix this before i quit SOL forever.

It's under lockdown still, correct?
Sol is not in lockdown, no. And still wouldn't explain why the rescue ship doesnt offer escaped pods missions or this burning station itself doesnt offer passenger missions.

Also, i had other CMDR's check and they still have access to missions and passengers missions like normal.

Greeting Commanders o7,

Had the same thing happen to me yesterday (Sunday). I was able to run both mission types in the morning (got to 85% on Lt. Commander) but nothing available last night. Could it be a cap on missions? I don't think I emptied the station with my 22 passenger dolphin and would have though if it was based on number of rescued passengers someone running a rescueconda grabbing 150+ passengers at a shot would have hit this wall whatever it is. In the words of Spock: curious.
 
I'm planning on trying again tonight. Wonder if it's a result of hitting allied status with all of the factions on the burning station/ rescue ship. Iirc I had just hit allied with the last one (the 1 non fed one there, Aegis Core) before I quit in the morning. Maybe I'll try to run some missions against those same factions, knock my status below allied, and see if that lets me run the missions again.

Gave me a break anyway to check out some other things that cropped up during the week; 3 tip off missions, a Darkwheel bounty voucher from one of my rank up missions and do some exploration in the systems around Sol (Miterand Hollow was pretty interesting from space and the surface). o7

Being allied shouldn't stop anything. I'm allied with everyone and I was offered missions in Daedalus and Gorbatchev, and passengers waiting for evacuation from the burning Station.

As for the rescue missions, I've noticed that passenger "pool" for factions seem to get smaller as you rescue them, to a point where some factions might not have any new passengers for you for a while. I've never seen them dry out completely though.
 
/shrug I wouldn't think so regarding the allied status but who knows and it gives me something to test. And there was 8 hrs+ between my morning session and night session so I don't think I depleted the passengers (playing in solo flying a 22 passenger dolphin) nor would that explain the salvage missions being closed off. I ran a few limpets on my last trip in but the rescue ship was not offering missions to take the salvage so I sold them to the S&R contact at Abe Lincoln Station.

Between the last week and a half I was able to get to Baron and Lt. Commander running the station mission so I'll take that as an overall win in any case. Mostly wanted the OP to know they weren't the only one running into this.
 
I can get you screenshots if you so desire. What would you like to see?

Every CMDR in the squadron i convinced to visit SOL and let me know. My first thought was that all refugees have been rescued and it would be "complete". But Everyone says they have missions. And it still racks my brain why would ALL stations and Settlements not offer anything.

I have tried logging in and out >50 times easily with no exaggeration.

Ive been doing various missions a lot today and i just went back to SOL (at the time of this post) after maybe 100 different missions in different systems across all three superpower factions and still no missions in all of SOL.

It IS comforting that more people are experiencing this. It gives me hope, while not ideal, that the Thursday Maintenance might rectify the problem.

I am allied will all minor factions in SOL as a result of doing the rescue missions. I will try to lower those particular factions rep as that is a thought for reasoning, that all allied is messing it up.

I will keep updating and i do enjoy the feedback. All ideas are welcome. I will try them all.

I sadly have no idea how to improve this, I can confirm that I visited Sol (in vain) on Sunday to rise in Federal rank for the Corvette and while Li Qing Jao was still burning (see pic) and the radio operator very thankful for my pythons arrival, there was nothing to fetch besides the floating cargo canisters, escape pods and materials.
Which the rescue ship didn't want either.

No passengers waited to leave the burning station, so I returned to Mars High (where standard missions were available, though), handed in the rescued stuff and then went on to He Bo, earning the target pratice T6.
 
Update: Logged in tonight and there were missions available on the Abe Lincoln station board and both rescue mission types were working fine on my first run in. /Shrug
Hope the same is true for the OP.
 
I think this is server shenanigans. I am having this issue on an entirely different system - nothing on mission board or passenger lounge, no BGS states to justify it.
