Cannot Station BOFFS

Is it common to be unable to station your bridge officers? ie. You have appropriate stations and the drop down option won't be any thing other than NONE.

I just completed the Doomsday mission and after returning to my ship, none of my previous boffs were stationed... I am unable to make the stations have an officer in them now. I had this happen on a previous toon that was at Lt. and after many google searches I just restarted the toon. Now here I am in the same boat but about to be a Capt.


To be clear, I have:

1 Lt. Cmdr Tactical Station and cannot station my Lt. Cmdr Tactical Officer or my Ensign Tac Officer in it.

1 Ensign Tactical Station and cannot station my Ensign Tac Officer in it.

1 Lt. Science Station and cannot station my Science Ensign in it.

1 Lt. Engineer Station and cannot station my Science Ensign in it.

All are empty and are stuck that way.


EDIT: After switching ships and switching back, I was able to station them... but that is seriously messed up.

    Ah, same thing happened to me after doing a mission on the KDF side. From what I gather, any mission that switches your ship to something else makes you unable to put bridge officers in it. A quick fix to this is to switch your ship to another one and then back to the broken one. It should then allow you to station them.

    EDIT: Nevermind, see you have already figured that out, but it is still an annoying relatively new bug, maybe from S7 patch?

    just hope they fix it soon.

    Same thing happened to me today after getting a new bridge officer. Changing ships did the trick for me as well.

    This happened to me once before and I used said fix. However, it happened again and I realized that I now had access to all the BOFF abilities rather than being limited by the rank in the starship stations menu.

    Same thing's been happening to me. I think it's an S7 bug. :rolleyes:

    I think this has already been reported. Hopefully they'll fix it in the next patch.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."
