I am at G8 doing cargo contracts, I was offered a contract to Inzaan and I pressed the button to show the location. And found Inzaan is on my way for another contract I have already taken and accepted the contract. But After launching looked at Galaxy chart again and found the mark is not on my route any more.
The reason is there are two Inzaans at G8 and presumably show target system pointed to the wrong one, so I have over 10000 grams of gem-stones to sell now.
Problem with display target system at contracts screen.

Re: Problem with display target system at contracts screen.
Sadly, Cargo Contract destinations are marked with an X on the Galaxy Chart only after you start them.
A clue also to avoid that in the future is the distance to the system is mentioned in the contract. You're probably not the same distance from both Inzaans.

Re: Problem with display target system at contracts screen.
Something similar happened me in RL. On my way in the south I had to take two other persons with me. One came at my house and the other lived in the town 'Elst'. I had no address of the guy, but my other guest said that, if I drive to the town centre, he would find it. And because I had been in Elst before and it was perfectly along my route south, I never asked where Elst was situated......Okti wrote:The reason is there are two Inzaans at G8 and presumably show target system pointed to the wrong one, so I have over 10000 grams of gem-stones to sell now.
Once in the centre, my guest did not recognize anything. Than, with the map, he pointed somewhere else. 50 km off-route there also existed a second town with the name "Elst". #$###%$
They are shown with a green cross before selecting them. You just have to go to the F6F6 screen by pressing "?"Switeck wrote:Sadly, Cargo Contract destinations are marked with an X on the Galaxy Chart only after you start them.

Re: Problem with display target system at contracts screen.
Wouldn't a single line in planetinfo.plist, re-naming one of them, solve the two Inzaans inconvenience once and for all?

I can see it now -- a Snoopers news reports the 2 fighting over who gets to retain the name.

Re: Problem with display target system at contracts screen.
We basically do want to keep the maps as they were in 1.65, but I believe a fix for 'satnav issues' is underway post-MNSR any time now
