Character Import bugged on Tribble

While the character IS transferred to Tribble, the Stations tab isn't working correctly. It only displays the landing party. The BOFFS and their skills are completely missing.

I've tried re-logging, erasing the toon and re-importing, importing a different toon, but the problem persists. It seems to be effecting only the newly imported toons, as toons already existing on Tribble display their BOFFS and skills under the Station tab per usual.

    Doesn't anybody else have this problem? I continue to transfer toons over to Tribble and each time there are no Bridge Officer stations, meaning no Cmd, Lt, Ensign, LtC slots. So with no station slots there are no BOFF skills AT ALL. In space all I have are Captain abilities, special console powers, and batteries.

    This can't be just my toons that are afflicted. Will a dev please tell me I'm either crazy or that this is being looked into? I've filed a ticket but received no response. I've filed a bug report and no mention of it on tribble fixes.

    How can i test builds if i cant use BOFFs? Please someone respond. :confused::eek::mad:

    Isn't it just the "normal" s.7 boff bug that happened to everyone?

    Did you try changing ship and re-equip them?

    If you are going back on tribble do me a favour and check your reputation window and see if your unlocks are there because it tells me I am 0 reputation and won't display my unlocks.

    I noticed the same issue the first day I transferred a character to Tribble, the rep was back at 0. Though, since I had reached tier 1 on both reps and selected the tier 1 powers (upgrades) BEFORE I transferred, the powers were apparently still selected, but I can't really know for sure if the stat bonus was actually active. :confused:

    When it comes to the boff stations missing, I've never had that issue on Tribble, even though I transferred my characters after Season 7. Could the selected ship have something to do with it? I've flyed the Odyssey, Bortas, and Breen ship on Tribble and never had the Boff stations disappear. :eek:

    Winning.
    It's what I do. It's what I just did. It's what I'm about to do again. It's being undisputed emperor of an empire that cannot be disproved as the most powerful intergalactic empire in the entire universe; I always win, and everything I've won will definitely be won again... by me. It's my signature move, and thus, it's my signature. Problem, Sonic? Yeah, I mean you, Sonic, because you're being beat up, despite your being super. You can't even hit Shadow back, can you? Nope, he's too strong for you. Of course, I'm not Shadow, I'm the Super Emerald fueled fox that's pulling the strings; trust me, the fight would only be a few frames long if I were in it personally. Oh, and here's something for all you guys thinking you can win Last Post Wins 3.0; trust me, I'll be around a long while after the sun has already consumed the Earth while I sit out with the forum servers on Titan. Yes, I mean Titan... that comparatively little moon orbiting Saturn. It's a nice little place in a version of our solar system where the sun is a lot bigger. I mean, Mars will last longer than your precious Earth, but by then, it'll be one hot planet... and I figure Saturn's moon will be about the right temperate for a super-powered warlord. Oh, and trust me, I packed a lot of rings, and I mean a lot. Trillions, in fact, so I'll never run out of rings to power my super form. Besides, if I start to run out, I can just chaos control more rings into my reach. It's quite easy, really. You should try it. Granted, you'll never have the 7 Super Emeralds that I have in my possession, nor the Master Emerald that I've got hidden away somewhere... absorbed into my body thanks to Sonic logic, but whatever. I win. Again. I'm not kidding, either. Just check Last Post Wins, and if the last post isn't mine, it soon will be. Very, very soon. You can count on it. Seriously. By the way, if you're wondering, there's a really great Super Tails sprite sheet out there... somewhere... by some guy named shadow_91. These sprites are really great. Like, really good. Quality. Just like what I like to see in a sprite sheet. Also, credit to Joe T.E., his Sonic Battle style Super Sonic sprites have a great palette for a Super Sonic being beat up by Super Shadow, who's palette is from a Super Shadow sheet of unknown origin, but it turns out they were "borrowed" from a better sheet made by a certain Domenico. Oh, and the gif is actually a custom made super version of a similar gif, of which there are only 3 or 4 copies to be found by Google, and even then, evidently of an unknown source. Yep, it's one of those things. Stuff people have made, spread around, only for it to vanish and you to be the only person who still has a copy, not even knowing where it came from... like, literally at all. Oh, and anyone notice that Shadow's little chaos snap blast thingies are red and blue now? Yeah, I changed it. Problem, fans of purple? Yeah, I know you got a problem with that one, but you can just deal with it. After all, according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly... alright, alright, I'll spare you the entire Bee Movie script, just Google it if you want. By the way, ever wonder how your characters would've ended up if they evolved in another universe? Yeah, that. Think about it. Ok, so you probably didn't bother reading up to here, but whatever, here's a surprise for you guys over at ESD (RP) who were crazy enough to read this: Emperor Nat of the mcfreakin' Terran Empire is gonna be right all along! The universe is gonna go BOOM! *Thumbs up to the insanity*
    Oh, now don't tell me you want in on all this! Well, ok. Look this that Egg Pawn hanging outside your window, pointing his laser rifle at you, waiting for my next order. He's doing his part. He helps conquer the weak-minded. He roboticizes the weak-bodied. Heck, he even helps keep the useless people from causing any trouble, but you know what? Join. Find the closest Nataran Empire roboticization center near you and join the ranks, before the ranks find you. Oh, I know, you figure it must be so satisfying to know I basically rule the world now, and you know what? It is, but do you want to know the true definition of satisfaction? Well, let me tell you a little story. One day, you see a brand new event. They're giving out boxes that give old event stuff. Your dilithium is plentiful. You buy a whole lot of Phoenix packs on your main, and open them all. You get one epic token. Then, you decide, that since you have all the Breen ships and don't give a damn about the others, you exchange it for an ultra rare, and grab yourself a Jem'Hadar Attack Ship and for the hell of it, a Voth Bulwark. You open both, leaving the Bulwark in your vast masses of starships as you jump into the bugship and deck it out, deck by deck, into the most awesome Jem'Hadar ship you can. You fly it. You enjoy it. Eventually, you get bored and leave, leaving the old Bulwark never flown... until later. Your main is long complete. Your new alt main, based off some character you pulled out of nothing just to explain away some starship being in service without the command of your dear admiral, is also complete. Mostly. Their reps and doffs are hard at work, getting you stuff. You realize the potential, and head back for your dear admiral, pull the most Voth themed build you can out of thin air, and suit up in your giant ship in the shape of you know what. You head out... and cause all sorts of havoc. Enemies scream out your name as their very life is drained away by your swarms of Aceton Assimilators. They complain to the devs of your OPness when you revive yourself from death every time you die. Do you show any form of mercy? No. After all, this isn't the United Federation of Planets, this is mother frakkin' Starfleet, where you explore strange new worlds and kick butt never kicked before. Oh, and you realize that I just wrote another speech rivaling your own signature. Cool. Oh, wait, that's just the original draft, it is part of my signature now. Oh, and yes, I am aware that I have become a Canadian Regent; one day, sooner than you'd expect, we'll suddenly decide to take over the world and declare an "alliance", and I shall become it's Regent. You know, like the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance in the mirror universe of our beloved Star Trek. Oh, who'll we be taking over with? I dunno, maybe [REDACTED], or maybe aliens from outer space. Guess you'll have to wait and find out, won't we? Until then, don't ask too many questions, or else my Breen allies on Titania might pick up on your -- [REDACTED BY BREEN CONFEDERACY FOR REASONS] Also, psst... keep an eye out for flying Tribbles! Also walls. Big, great walls, separating entire continents apart. Walls patrolled by Tribbles. Flying Tribbles. Flying Nukara Tribbles. Don't worry, it's not like they were on Venus with a herd of Tholians or anything, they just like the extreme heat and brutal weather like acid rain and hurricane force winds as the norm. Oh, and definitely keep your eye out on any two-tailed foxes, because if they ain't glowing, they're definitely an imposter. Possibly an Undine, we caught one of those once in my place once. Oh, and if you find a two-tailed fox that doesn't like the cold... most certainly ask him to say sorry. If he refuses, DESTROY HIM WITH A DOOMSDAY MACHINE, BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH AGAINST SUCH AN OVERPOWERED IMPOSTER!

    tr;dr, I am winning last post wins 3.0. Thank you for your time.
    Oh, look, an explosion...

    I never heard about missing Tribble station slots as a 'normal' s7 bug. I know that on holo we all had missing boffs in the station slots and had to reassign them. But this is different, the slots themselves are gone. I cant even select a boff for, say Cmdr, because Cmdr doesn't even display. None of the stations display.

    I recopied some toons to tribble again, went to the shipyard and changed ships. On some of the changed ships the stations slots were there and I could select Boffs. On some I couldn't. And when I switched back to my original ship, the station slots were still missing. :(

    Re reputations, according to the Status tab my toons were still T5 with the selected passives highlighted. However, my unlocks like yours also aren't displayed. In the project selections, the only choices I had were the grind ones. No weapons or anything seemed to have been unlocked. However, I know that we can go to the DS9 vendor near Roxy and test for free all of the rep weapons.

    One of the problem ships is an Odyssey. Also Patrol Escort. It is strange how some ships at the shipyards have boff slots and some do not.

    I can't even transfer my characters to tribble "Character transfer failed. Please try again later"
    And yes I have enough free slots to transfer another character.

    Remember you can't "overwrite" the same character. If you already have a cap. stardust on tribble it won't permit you send a newer version of cap. stardust over.
    You have to delete it first and then transfer the replica.

    The reason the missing unlock projects are extra unfortunate for me is I went on there to mess around with another bug that doesn't show costume unlocks.

    Patience is a virtue I guess

    Yup, I know about the same toon overwrite limitation. I'm experiencing this problem with different toons. Is there a limit on the number of different toons that can be transferred? Would it be 2 (i.e., should I limit my testing to one toon on tribble at a time?).

    Nope even one at a time doesn't work. It seems to be random. Some ships have the station slots and some don't, but most of the time the ship I'm currently using and need to test(!) is one of the ones with this glitch.

    Devs please put this on your list. I've wasted days trying different ways to test different builds on tribble and have yet been unsuccessful. :(

    I had the same problem today, all boff stations completely banished and could not be reassigned even after switching ships. So, no, it is not the same "bug" caused by the fix to Voldemort.


    The solution was:

    1- Dismiss the shuttles
    2- Change to another ship and then back to the original ship
    3- Reassign the boff stations


    So it seems the shuttle is the linchpin of this new transfer bug.

    I'm having problems also.

    My bridge officer stations on my ship were empty but I was able to reassign my boffs and their abilities show up.

    Another problem: I can't change uniforms. I have a bunch of uniform slots and when I right click my character portrait and select to change uniform nothing happens. I even went to the tailor, selected a different uniform and chose to "wear" it and still nothing happens.

    Another problem as someone else here has mentioned: The main purpose for transferring my main character over to the test server was because I have tier 5 Romulan. I wanted to see what the stats on the new rifles and pistols were. I also have tier 4 Omega and wanted to see the cost of the Borg Duty Officers that use to be available as an STF reward. The problem I'm having is that both reputations are showing my passive abilities chosen but both reps show tier 0 and the store isn't available even though I've done a lot of rep store unlocks. My character is equipped with the Tactical Drone Mk XII ground weapon, which can only be purchased in the Omega rep store after completing the project to unlock it. I've also completed ALL Romulan store unlock projects.

    I was going to provide screenshots but for some reason they aren't in the STO screen shot folder. I did use the /screenshot_ui_jpg command. :(

    Edit: Not sure if it matters but the starship I had equipped is the Breen Chel Grett Warship. The stations looked fine, just had to reassign my boffs to them.

    This worked for me. Yay, I can finally test my frigates! Thanks!
    I once again match my character. Behold the power of PINK!

    Hi!

    All bridge officer stations are missing. In the UI and in the menu's. I have no access to them at all.

    No shuttles equipped...

    After just messing around in menu's, everything has re-appeared. Don't really know what did it at this point.
