[BUG] Boron Story: Positioning issue after story part

Post by elcheffo » Sun, 16. Apr 23, 21:25

After completing a part of the Boron plot, I end up stuck on a carrier that I cannot leave without dying:

After completing the story mission "Der rechte Weg" (the right way?), I am left on the "Reminiszenz an Menelaus", the Boron Shark carrier. During final debriefing it flew far into the dangerous area.

If I try to undock from it, the dangerous region effects quickly destroy my Boron Mako. I currently do not have any ship that could survive that travel, nor do I have the money to buy one.
Also I have not unlocked teleporting yet, so I am stuck on the "Reminiszenz an Menelaus".
Apparently the carrier is not moving around, so there is no hope in just waiting for it to get to a safe region before undocking.

If I may ask, what keeps you from unlocking Teleportation I at least? It's very cheap and the money you should've gotten for completing the mission should be enough to cover the material costs.

Then you could get a ship into the sector near the gate and teleport into it.

But I agree that the carrier ought to go to another sector after the mission.

I had actually bought another Boron scout ship "Qualle" (Jellyfish?), so I don't have much money left. But even then, I would have to give up that mako (or sell it).

I actually managed to get the Shark to move again (after many retries) by undocking and ramming it. This worked mostly because the effect of the dangerous region does not apply if close enough to the Shark...
