. . .Passenger Seeking Sightseeing Adventure; possible problem!

[B4DG3R]

New to the Forum (you're welcome to move this if it's in the wrong place).
Loving the game (I'm old enough to have played the original, and loved it too then).

Anyway, to the problem.
Twice now I have done a 'Sightseeing Adventure' and on both occasions - after successfully completing all required scans of the visitor beacons, and upon being requested to return to original station - i have then gone to the passenger lounge to find that there is no completed mission to cash in.
On the first occasion I left the station, did a quick jump to a nearby station, and returned to a completed mission and a happy passenger. But on the second occasion even this did not work - i left the station twice and it still would not complete.

Is this a common problem?
Am I supposed to wait until the timer expires?

Just curious, because those missions give lots of creds.

Thanks (in advance).

Welcome to the forum!

First thought - if the mission gives you data or material rewards and you don't have the cargo space available, you won't be able to hand in the mission.

Check your inventory and dump stuff to make room if this is the case.

Check the left hand panel, Transactions, and see what the entry for your passenger mission says. If there is red writing warning about data or materials, or even cargo space, take the appropriate corrective action, as Jenner has said above.

No: when the timer expires, the mission has failed.

It was the commoditiy reward!
I was really beginning to worry that the game was glitching!
Thanks everyone.
(And now i feel a total noob, but by god i am so glad you helped - i will now keep an eye on those rewards for passengers!)

I'd wager we've all done this at least once. Fortunately this is something that is slated to be changed in Beyond, where we will have the option to take more Credits and tell our mission givers to keep their junk.

No need to feel a noob, as Indigo as said, many of us have been there done that, staring forlornly at the screen wondering what to do next.
