Please fix the Larceny and Scavenger missions not spawning the mission item

So thought we had this one done but it appears to be back. Once again the mission items do not spawn in the mission generated POI's for these types of missions quite frequently. Often times a relog at the site will fix the issue but that can be quite annoying when the site is guarded and you are forced to again kill off all the scavs around it including reinforcement waves. One symptom I have noted is that these mission POI often seem to 'double'. On approach in SC you see a single POI. But once in normal space you see two POI in the left hand navigation panel. Each time I've had issues I have also noted that symptom as well. Still not sure if it is just coincidence or an indicator.

It'd be nice if we didn't have to run most missions twice to see if the mission item is in the crate. So far I've seen it in Larceny, Distress and Crash Site mission POIs.

Please help get the bug confirmed if you have run into this:

I can't believe after 13 updates, I'm still having to abandon missions because there not loading correctly, I just tried to complete a salvage mission where the item didn't spawn. Ok a relog did force it to spawn, but I then tried a kill scavs mission where it wanted 18 to be killed and the game only spawned 17. Making it impossible to complete, I tried flying back in to space to reset the instance and this time I still needed 18, spawned 17, killed 17 and the mission tracker said 5 killed. So I had to abandon the mission, I wanna try getting in to playing the Odyssey content but FDEV your not making it easy to do so. I can put up with poor performance but only if the game works as intended, but when your getting frustrated and having to abandon what your doing due to a bug that should have sorted many updates ago.

Yeah there's something fundamentally wrong with mission spawning stuff.
Age old bug they've "fixed" many times

When l did ground missions etc to get mats and unlock on foot engineers l quickly learnt which missions to spam which to avoid.
And there's always good old sack a base spammed back up.

Had to reload a poi 4 times the other day before it would spawn. The 4th attempt also seemed to break something as it caused a never ending stream of dropships. Went on about 25 minutes before I just decided to leave.

This is getting really ridiculous. Took three missions to get items from crash sites and they just don't spawn, even tried logging out and back (crazy when the game actively needs you to do this in an attempt to spawn the item). Ended up dying due to for some reason 10 scavengers spawning on top of me. Awesome.

:(

On the positive side I have collected a ridiculous amount of weapon schematics due to this bug.

On the negative there has been multiple times where I have found myself trapped in a storage container after a relog.

Are you guys relogging right in the POI? That's bonkers. You never know if scavs will spawn on top of you. I park around 150m away and relog in my ship. If it's too many scavs I just take off and nuke them, if I feel like a bit of fun then I go to foot and shoot them using my ship shields for cover.

You can ask a mate to come over and cut you out - has happened before.😂

Personally I use the SRV for these.
If scavs are present I just gun 'em down. No point in stealth or risking a respawn on foot.
It's not like there's any substantial cover to duck behind.

Skimmer wreckage.. your 1st trip there. I land about 1.2 km away out of sight.
Using the buggy l close In killing everything on sight from the turret.
Once all dead l close in having grabbed a few hacks for the doors loot the boxes. There's always 2 containers with 8 or so boxes. Lots of drugs hehe. Then I grab the raw mats from the rack. Once all farmed having grabbed the data from the dead skimmer I hide behind it so the containers are in front of me. Although l can't see em. Crouch. Log to desktop. Log back in. Buggy is now back with the ship. I'm standing behind the skimmer wreckage. I quickly crouch. No torch or movement. Grab data. Log out.
Once I've done that 4 or so times I've capped 10 data I quickly jump away to the ship easily outstripping any scavengers present.
Once "tipped" I jump into the buggy n rinse n repeat.
And yes...maverick suit g5 with jump defence tool battery and scanning distance. Makes it easier.
Don't get into a firefight on foot...you'll lose hehe.
