Mission board - still bugged (softlock)

[krautbernd]

As originally reported here I'm still experiencing soft locks on the mission board if the mission NPC isn't on screen:

Open the board, select mission giver:

Scroll down the list until the NPC in question isn't visible anymore:

Click on the mission - board softlocks, only way to close it is to quit to menu or to desktop.

Can anybody reproduce this? Is this exclusive to cargo missions / related to the depot mechanic screen?

I ran a few missions last night everything worked OK. Surprisingly.

This was not fixed in the latest patch and still occurs. I'm again asking people to give me feedback on this and actually follow the instructions I posted and see if they can recreate this. It's crucial that the mission giver is not on screen when accessing the mission.

You know you are never going to get a response from FD here on this.

If you are having an issue report the bug in the correct place here: https://issues.frontierstore.net/ (or preferably bump up someone elses that has the same issue as that helps to confirm them)

or raise a ticket here:

In the mean time, if you can accomplish what you need to do by not following your very specific instructions then adjust your behaviour to accomodate it until FD fix it.

While I appreciate the reply I explicitely asked whether or not people can actuall reproduce the bug.

I'm well aware of how the "Issue" system works, unfortunately most of the time it either randomly refuses to accept my reports and forces me to solve captchas before and during the reporting process.

Apart form that the instructions aren't overly specific as far as I can tell, all that's required is the player randomly scrolling through the board and accidentally clicking on mission. It happened to me multiple times before I realized why the board was locking up. If anything this might help people understand why their mission boards are 'randomly' locking up.

It's still totally possible that this only happens on certain configurations, which is why I would be grateful if you could try to replicate this and report back.

Can confirm that the board stops working (can't select the mission), but pressing backspace (bound to UI Back) backs out of the lock for me.

Have you actually tried recreating the issue in the way described? See this video posted by another user that demonstrates the bug.

Am I the only one still getting issues with the mission board? Soft lock if a mission not available to me is on screen and sometimes it just glitches out on opening it (again a soft lock). Finding it somewhat game breaking (certainly putting a dampener on things) and has been like this for a while now.

I'm assuming that FDEV have this in their system but it seems hard to find stuff in there are there are so many reports to look through.
