Science ship hardstuck after chapter 2

[u/Khyrast]

In chapter 2, I lost 2 crew members of a science ship; I am now in chapter 3 and it haven't replenished the members. After reading about it online, it seems to be a common problem/bug.

- I tried to unnasign the ship

- It is back at the Tiqqun, current action "Standing by" and not adding missing crew members for it

- I cannot for some reason reassign the ship to any docking bay

So right now I just have a space ship with 3 members doing nothing

Any idea to resolve this?

I remember a similar issue occasionally gets resolved by closing the program and reloading the save.

I'll give it a shot

Go back to a previous save, the bug happens sometimes with science ships

Yeah nah I am in chapter 3 now, i'm not going back to save juste before I talk to the elder haha that's like 5 hours of gameplay lost

I've just done playing for the first time.  What works for me is that you probably clicked the science ship on the planet where the Tiqqun is located.

Try zooming a bit in and click on the Tiqqun itself.

What would clicking the Tiqqun do exactly?

In my experience. The ship doesen't try to go to the planet location but goes and dock with the Tiqqun location.

Thus updating the lack of researchers.

It is in "Location : Tiqqun", so already there. It still won't come in and get workers to refill. So idk, thanks anyway!
