Can't recover the Hamatsu during the Galatian questline.
« on: April 14, 2021, 04:50:16 PM »

This only happened once out of like four games. Normally you can recover the Venture Class cruiser at the Alpha Site for a side quest, but instead it just gave me a few survey data items, like how some random derelicts out in the sector would. If I tried interacting with the ship again, I would get booted from the dialogue. This doesn't stop me from completing the Galatian questline.

Hi - thanks for the report! Do you happen to have a save handy or a screenshot? It'd help to see what you mean by "booted out of the dialog".

(If you have a save: would you mind emailing it to fractalsoftworks [at] gmail [dot] com ?)

Thanks! Hmm. If you could email me the save I'd appreciate it; this raises more questions than it answers :)

Received this bug report in the Nex thread which involved a mod interaction with the Hamatsu, may or may not be related to the thread's issue:

Nexerelin, I believe, adds the chance that when salvaging a derelict ship, you can find 'intel' to send to one of two factions, right? If so... well, minor storyline spoilers:
Spoiler
If so, ah, it seems that can break the 'storyline', because that event can trigger on the Hamatsu. Which then makes the ship completely uninteractable after the fact. All you have is the 'Leave' prompt, which doesn't trigger the unique interaction that progresses the plot.

No, that's Industrial Evolution.

Sent it. I do have Industrial Revolution installed and one of its events, that I thought was vanilla, played during the interaction. I'll post over there now.

Is there anyway to "fix" this via console commands? not sure if I can spawn in a special venture that triggers the event... or maybe resets the dialogue. I got the intel, fought the ~~~~ and then saved because I won with only a few frigates down... now I guess I betrayed that poor spacer :(
