Can't deliver cargo

Post by scawa1952 »

I have accepted a couple of Cargo missions and arrived at the destination and either the target to deliver the cargo to will not let me dock OR they are not there at all. If I wait there an hour or so they STILL do not show up.

Is this a "bug" or just a consequence of a large Universe. What does one do in this situation.

Usually a bug, what kind of target is it?

Sometimes the target is a ship that flies off the system, and in that case you've got trouble. In that case, a few tweaks (not necessarily easy tweaks) to the mission scripts might fix it.

Sometimes the target is a base type that has some kind of error in units.csv, and shows up as an "invisible" unit, which you can't dock with. That's a bug to be fixed in units.csv.

If it happens again, please submit those details (kind of ship/station you're supposed to dock with) so we can track down those bugs.
