Faction Quest - United Empire

Name

Chapter 4. The Day That Never Comes - Part 1

Expected Behavior

The game should allows the player to explore the quest node in primary system with an exploration ship.

Description

When the quest started, my tech level allowed Expedition Level of 3...
The quest text read "Required Curiosity Expedition Po. 1 (3)" with the 3 in Red
I upgraded my tech to lvl 4 just to check
The quest text read "Required Curiosity Expedition Po. 1 (4)" with the 3 in Red
I created an explorer ship with a Curiosity Expedition Power of 6... so with 6 probes !!! (think it's really confusing labels there).
I am still unable to click the quest button on Orm IV

I tried many ways to solve this... Hero ship with just one probe, etc... nothing seems to work.

First we should nuke them. If that doesn't make the trick then we should turn to powerful weapons.

Confirmed. Same bug applies to the "Cartographer's request" mission on a Horatio playthrough

I just finished the quest on 1.06 patch with no issues. FYI, I didn't have that tech researched. I had the curios at one level below

@Tdoggs: You finished this quest, ok... But do you still have a savegame just a bit before you validate it? So you could try with a curiosity of at least 2? See if it's still bugged? I fera my old save will not work... anyway I'll try.

Hello guys.

I think this issue has been fixed earlier (so you shouldn’t have this bug).

FrancoisH, if your save was made done before the last patch (and if the quest is already started) then the fix will not appear in the game. However, if you have a save where the “Chapter 4. The Day That Never….” is not launched yet, then continue the quest, and you’ll trigger the fixed version of the quest.

Alternately, you could restart the UE Quest, although that is not ideal… :/

(The issue appeared because the curiosity required too many strategic resources, it is not a problem of “searching level”^^).

Mcganyol: do you have a save? I’ve tried to reproduce your bug, but I didn’t succeed.
