(AP 2.1) Beryll Lasertower. Bug? UPDATE REPORT
I've just dropped the 3 Lasertowers around the Beryll Research Station. Towers 1 & 2 were green so I could give them commands. Immediately after dropping the 3rd they all became blue and no longer my property. They are now all Argon Lasertowers and I am unable to complete the mission. In pre-patch 2.1 the lasertowers remained the property of the player who was able to re-collect them if s/he so wished.
Is this a bug in 2.1?
EDIT:
Incidentally, I'm playing 100% pure vanilla game with bonus pack!

If it doesn't work, give it a kick. If that doesn't fix it hit it with a hammer. If it still doesn't work, USE A BIGGER HAMMER!!!

Well that answers them becoming the Argon property part.
I'm still getting the mission to deploy 3 lasertowers although I have already done so. However a thought has just come into my head. Do I have to wait till their shields are 100% before getting the mission complete message?

Did you get any incoming message afterwards or just nothing at all?
I may need you savegame to take a look.

Okay. I'll see what I can do. (My last save was back at the MO in Argon M148 just prior to recieving the mission) and I'll try and get a couple of decent screenshots.
@Xenon_Slayer
When the 3rd one was dropped there was no signal as to mission complete. There was a countdown for the first two though ('deploy 2 lasertowers', 'deploy 1 lasertower').

Does it still tell you to build 1 LT or has it reset to 3?
Will move to Tech Support

Right, looks like the problem has been identified. You can expect a swift fix, and if there are more Argon LTs around than there should, you can expect some money back

I don't know what happened in my previous 2 posts. They are suppose to contain the url's to my save and a picture.
Okay I've changed my browser. Seems like it's working again.
Here is a save. Save 06 is exactly where I am now in Albion Alpha.
<Link Removed.>
And here is the picture. I've circled 2 of the towers and the third is targeted by my ship. The mission window is open.
Nope! Not workin. Seems like I'm having trouble putting 2 url's in the same post. Is the site being updated or something? As soon as I enter the second url the preview just goes blank apart from my sig.!
I'll put the picture url in a separate post.

Okay! Discovered the problem! The file name contained a space. I've now removed it and all SHOULD be well!

Gee! I wish you could refresh the page while your typing! I've spent the last twenty minutes getting my posts working while the problem has already been identified!Xenon_Slayer wrote:Right, looks like the problem has been identified.

Okay> I'll revert back to my save before the mission and wait for the fix or a workaround. Gives me a chance to get my Terran rep back up anyway.
Thanks for the help.

@Xenon_Slayer,
Can you ensure that the 'fix' brings back the 'bug' from ver. 2.0 so that the player can pick up the towers again!

2.1a is now out and will fix this issue. It seems it didn't happen every time as there was a timing element to it.
But no, you will not be able to pickup the LTs to sell again You get rewarded their price anyway.

Gee! It's my birthday (17th)! You little devils you! You've been holding it back so you could give it to me as a pressie haven't you? Well it's much appreciated (as long as Hans Kisaragi is wrong that it is still not working!).
The only problem now is that I've built my Terran rep right up and the missions are no longer available! Seems like I'll have to go on a Terran killing spree to get my rep back to where it should be.
PS
I've been using the 'nosteam.exe' so I guess I'll have to run the steam version to get the update.

Okay! Here is an update:
When I reloaded my save game (the one supplied in earlier post), the mission was satisfactorily completed and I could happily continue with the next part of the plot. Sigh! Deliveries again!
However, because I had continued the game whilst waiting for the fix, I reloaded my newest save, (where I had gotten my Terran rep right up to 'Planetary Senator'). I received an incoming message to report to Argon Sector M148 which I duly did. On entering the sector the plot started from the very beginning again. So I flew to the position marker, got the order to aid the war effort and off I toddled to do my bit. (Incidently, my Terran rep had dropped all the way back down to 'Renegade').
After killing 2 or 3 Terrans, I received another order to return to the MO. On landing I was immediately briefed that Jonferco's resources were fully stretched and that we needed to help them out. The briefing finished (no orders given) and I was immediately given an Advanced Discoverer & a Centaur at the same time! No mission in between. I now have 2 free Adv. Disco's & 2 free Centaurs! Luck! Another Bug! Who cares? I'm not complaining! 4 freebies instead of 2, who wouldn't be happy?
Another birthday pressie! Yippee!
Can't wait for my next birthday when I should hopefully be playing Rebirth!
The plot seems to be continuing normally now as I have just completed the escort mission with the Jonferco Heavy Loader.
And thanks again lads for my birthday presents! Much appreciated!
