Expedition 23 Our Journey Continues

I got this bug in my main save 4 or 5 days before the expedition started so I dont think getting it is related to the expedition itself.

Agreed. I’ve used the same dedicated save for expeditions since Omega; any glitches experienced have been minimal, and targeted by early patches. This time these issues are persisting across all my saves, old and new.

Yeah I think I got away with it due to lucky timing.
I’m on the steam experimental branch, but didnt finish the expedition until after the fix was applied, then went back to my long term playthrough.
So in my case the only save affected by the bug was the expedition save, now deleted.

So we really did time travel…

Interesting because my graphics issue started a few days before the update. I wonder if HG is quietly pushing out things beforehand… Is that possible?

You guys may want to take a look at this here

I’m trying to avoid spoilers (I’m basically skipping most of this thread until I’ve finished), so apologies if this has been asked, but I did search the thread for Beacon.

I’m stuck on Beacon. I’ve built an Overseer’s Office and a marketplace but it’s not progressing. The expedition keeps telling me to go the Settlers mission, and it’s just getting me to keep building.
I’ve just started an upgrade of the marketplace, but it’s just occurred to may that I should have done the office as it’s a lot quicker. Anyway, will it progress once the marketplace is upgraded?

I think that it does, I built a landing pad, but the opening ceremony did not complete the mission, another upgrade to the same did it for me.

My first run was a building that took an hour to build then another hour. My second run, I chose the Tower to build. It took 20 minutes then another 20 minutes. So yes, it does matter which building you choose. Take the time to gather materials.

Thank you both. I wish it had occurred to me to upgrade the overseer’s office as that takes two minutes.

Other buildings you can only take what was offered. This was a. Market & a habitation unit (I think). Either way would have been quicker.

Oh well. Means I won’t finish until tomorrow now.

Thank you AlexWinter of the past for your wisdom, as the backup save saved me from losing the Rasamama forever.

I swear I panicked a little when I saw at the terminal that the vintage interceptor was the one I left with

I went back to some early systems and they still had the second generation stations.

Right, well I finished it, and then checked out the loop 16 topic :man_facepalming:
So I’ll be going back in again.

That said my crash happened quite a lot at the end, so I need to see if it occurs on a different save, anyway. I happened at the start of the xeno arena twice in a row, and I only got through it by saving immediately beforehand and retrying until it didn’t happen. Once I know whether it’s a save related one, I’ll have to compile a report.

Aaaanyway, the expedition was great and I really enjoyed it. It’s up there with the Titan Worm one as favourite.

When posting other screenshots, I skipped ones that could be spoilers for this expedition, so here they are:

“Damn, thought I’d fixed that”

Someone else’s base - they built it for fishing, I used it as a way to find water in a storm for the underwater ruins

Night and day, really.

My new favourite ship



Reminds me of the bug where they would sometimes follow you into your freighter (and maybe space stations?).

So let’s talk how to keep the Atlas 4 pass. I saw someone say place it in a refiner but grab it before you get warped away. That is the warp you make right after getting the pass

Alternatively, give it a week, players with save editors will be dropping stacks of them in idle players inventories like its going out of style :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

But mine had a bent edge and a scuff across one corner from the stick I used to dislodge it.
Oh well, I will take what I can get

I’m a bit pressed for time & for jumping into the expedition again. Could someone reply with a quick version of how I might get the iteration16 thingy :hugs:

Just run the first 3 missions. After getting the Atlas 4 pass you will step into a portal and be warped to a low grav moon. Head generally toward the next objective but veer off to coords -39.59, -53.41. You should be on planet Leseycit. You will see 2 of the standard abandoned buildings with tossed lights. One has one of the yellow wall containers. Answer the questions.
Not sure if answers make a difference.
