Unfortunately, the waypoint is still not generated.
The error remains unchanged. I have uploaded the new log to the link above

Thanks for the log. I found the bug. A case of it staring me in the face. New version (0.5.8 ) ready for a test via the links above. If you can confirm the issue is resolved I'll put this version into the download manager.

Hello,
I downloaded the 0.5.8 version and once again I tried to recue the "stranded ship" in Beesor, half way between Witchpoint and Sun (so it should be like 380km from each ) and had a few problem:
Anyway I dropped the Machinery for it, but it does not start to move or something - I realized, that damaged machine may prevent it from moving and 10 km is too far for scooping (my bad for inaccuracy), so I scooped the Machinery back and dropped it just few hundred meters from the ship - got message, that they are happy and they arrived.
I got many warnings about the cargo from then and in my log was this:

- I took the direct way, to arrive just at time - it told me something like 10 minutes to death, I could not find it in time
- So I took indirect , but faster way, arriving about 14.3 hours sooner to get some time for searching - it told me something like 10 minutes to death
, I could not find it in time - It is supposed to be this way?
- I enabled all debugs and I got waypoint and found, that it is 270km from the suggested place
the closer to WS line it is 201 km near 200 km from Sun and 560km from Witchpoint - still the ship first talked to me only when I was much more near it (like 30km?) - this is hard to find it with lot ships in system

Thanks for the reports, gilhad. One of the reasons I added the Range Finder as part of this OXP was to handle these sorts of situations. Were you using it?
In any case, it looks like there are a couple of faults with timers I need to sort out. I’ll post an update shortly.

It works 
Tried the Special Delivery Mission and Com Relay Mission.
Both times the waypoint was shown on my ASC.
Thank you very much phkb

v0.5.9 has been uploaded, which has all the recent bug fixes in it, including the issue with timers being recycled, as noted by gilhad. Thanks, everyone, for reporting all the issues.

No, the beacon didn't show in space compass (I clycled through it several times during the cruise). Unfortunately that log is long gone... (phkb wrote: ↑Mon Feb 17, 2020 7:28 amI'll do some tests on these in the next couple of days. Did the beacon ever appear in your space compass? It would have been intermittent when it showed up. If you do another mission like this, and no beacon appears, can you grab a copy of your latest.log file and send it to me? In the meantime, I'll run some tests to see if I can reproduce it at my end.dybal wrote: ↑Thu Feb 13, 2020 10:40 amI did a "Investigate an unknown beacon" in Isinor, the mission briefing said the beacon was behind the witchpoint from the sun... went to the whitchpoint, centered my aft view on the sun and torused away... after around 8.200km found the Kiota Station... went ahead till the torus speed got ridiculous, the distance more than 100.000km (I didn't count the zeros
[Edit: Corrected version number]
should have saved it ... new to the game, still learning...). I will try mission like that again (but most unknown beacon missions I found lately where "opositte side of main planet from <>" and not "behind the witchpoint"... does it matter?)Re: [WIP] GalCop Missions

It shouldn’t matter - the code that generates the beacon is the same no matter which end point is selected. I’ll do some more tests and see what I find.
Re: [WIP] GalCop Missions

I've tested all the "Investigate" missions in v0.5.9, in a variety of different locations, and in each instance I started receiving notifications of an unidentified beacon not long after passing the reference point the source was behind (ie. when it was "behind the witchpoint from the sun", it was after I passed the WP; when it was "behind the sun from the planet", it was after I passed the sun, etc). I could then select the beacon with my ASC, and get a better bearing to the location.
But all this proves is that I can't reproduce the issue on my rig, not that there are no bugs to address. It's possible another OXP is causing a conflict somewhere. So, when you get a chance, can I get two things from you: first, a save game where you an investigate mission available; and second, the log file from after you accept this mission and try to navigate to the correct system location. You'll probably need to use a hosting site to send me the files, as they will probably be too big to post directly, and then PM me the links.
Thanks for persisting with the testing!

Slave repatriation missions
Posted: Tue Feb 25, 2020 5:37 pm
Greetings!
Are the Slave Repatriation missions form this OXP?
I accepted it, bought the salves form the station market and donated them to Amnesty Intergalatic.
The slaves do not show in my hold anymore, but the Market screen still shows the purchases (I think that comes form Market Observer OXP)

Do the mission variables in the savefile hold a history of missions?
I found this in my save file:

Yes, although the Illegal Goods Tweak OXP does a variation on this theme, by offering to take any slaves off your hands when you dock at main stations.
That's correct. Market Observer isn't aware of the transaction, so it's as if you lost the cargo through ship damage. I might look at trying to help Market Observer out a bit, but I'm not sure what I could tell it, given you're donating the cargo without receiving any payment in return.
Some history is kept (mission type, count of completed, failed, that sort of thing), but I don't think much in the way of detailed history. It's only used to adjust payment bonuses.
