I am sorry, I have to bring back this problem that I have reported earlier:
Cannot complete special shield/gun missions, and I don't know if this is a XR4.3 bug or a mod bug:
In a previous run, I have both Shield missions at Dormant Bear. After giving the artifact to the mission giver, the next mission is just "Talk to <empty>". So I thought the bug from XR2.x came back (cannot complete shield/gun mission on single-port station) after being fixed in either 3.x or 4.10).
So I restart the game, this time I was careful to choose the mission giver at Lonely Giant which has 2 ports. Same problem, after giving the mission giver the Special Egg collection, the mission is now "Talk To <empty>". I have tried to talk to a mechanic at Lonely Giant, but did not get offered the mk3 Repeater.
I can't believe this bug is not caught in 4.3 testing, so there must be conflict in the codes somewhere. I hope I am wrong!!! or may be the Lonely Giant station/Dormant Bear is not the same station that the vanilla game expects? (In my game, Lonely Giant is not owned by HOA, but some neutral /generic faction with no name).
A temporary solution now is to make the level 5 engine, level 5 shield and the Mk3 Repeater available in a special station somewhere? or show me how to cheat them in in the save game).
Save games:
