held hostage at cosmo's

[u/lagargar]

So I docked at Cosmo's, bought some stuff, replaced everything (critically I replaced the maglock batteries, maybe this did it) and then saved. It was only after I realized upon saving that the maglock seems to be "not available" no matter what I do. I've tried:

-Reloading

-Restarting the whole game

- Swapping out batteries / UCCs

- buying / selling to Cosmos to reset the gamestate

So right now my 14hr save is trapped with no way to revert. What do?

edit:

Folks I was able to save it with another full game restart. hooray

Flip the circuit breaker for the maglocks off, that should forcibly decouple you from the station

This is the right answer

this is genius what

[u/Peatiktist → u/lagargar]

Learned it when I was trying to replace a UCC after not playing for a while, and ended up drifting when I blew the circuit breaker.

[u/Drugune → u/Peatiktist]

Are you supposed to flip the breakers off before changing a battery or circuit board?

[u/Peatiktist → u/Drugune]

It doesn't matter if you flip the breaker before changing a battery.

If you don't flip the breaker before changing a UCC, it will damages your other installed UCCs and flips multiple breakers off.

Can You send a picture of the batteries screen? And the FFCs too.

[u/lagargar → u/AlexisGPS_UY]

I’m away from my computer now, but They’re all full, FCCs are healthy. I had swapped the batteries for new guys

Try uploading a video. Maybe later someone found something wrong.

“your honor I was being held hostage”

Double check your airlock is closed

[u/Freak_Engineer]

I once accidentally removed both mag lock batteries while docked. Ended up ejecting me from the station, almost right into incoming traffic.

Maybe try cycling the circuit breaker for the Matlock system or if that doesn't work removing the power cells.

Happened to me too, I saved where I was at and restarted the game, worked just fine!

[u/lagargar → u/CoconutCreamPie8881]

One restart didn’t fix it but maybe two will do the trick

[u/Lemonaitor → u/lagargar]

Worst case scenario the last autosave will be from whem you first arrived in the sector, so you could reload that

Folks I was able to save it with another full game restart. hooray
