Spotlight mission - Crouching Ty'gokor - Missing Base Commander.

My mission Crouching Ty'gokor Hidden Demon that was transferred over to holodeck. The final part of the mission involves people finding the base commander. Most people find him and complete but it seems a handful have trouble finding him. The map is so small that its almost impossible to miss him so i must conclude that he does not always spawn.

I have no idea what the problem is as most find him ok, but it would suggest that npc contacts dont always appear on the map, making missions in-completable.

    All NPC groups spawn when the character is within 300 cryptic feet of the object. It's user error, and you shouldn't feel bad about it.

    I've got lots of reviews for my mission, The Syndicate Extraction, where people can't find Selomi because she's probably been killed by an AoE attack.

    Unfortunately NPC contacts aren't invincible (even though they should be). I've seen them react to grenades that are thrown near them, and other AoE attacks. Also, if the enemy group around her has a Vixen, there's a chance that if she seduces you, you can accidentally target Selomi and kill her with your own weapons fire.

    I hope that this is something that is being investigated for fixing - they need to make NPC contacts invulnerable to attacks because they are used as part of critical objectives in the mission and were placed because they shouldn't be able to be killed.

    Well I can't find the end part of it. I killed the big bad guy in tygokor, then went back into space. THe mission says the next part is called "revenge" but it doesn't tell me where to find it. I can't find the info in the logs either...
