What's the explanation behind KDF having this limit?

To go to shipyard to academy you have to beam to First City then go to the other. What is the story reason for this? I may have missed it.

    Actually to go to Shipyard, you can just fly to it and not make a pitstop at First City.

    I've only had that problem with Romulan chars. My KDF chars can use all the buttons.

    Bug was reported, report it again if you want.

    I mean when I am either at Shipyard or Academy, I have to beam first to First City then go to the other. Not from being in the ship.

    That annoys me every time. Maybe there is a technical reason fort that? I can't really see a reason for this otherwise.

    This one is an alien made to look Romulan before the Romulans were added to the game. And same with others of KDF. Actual Klingons, Orion, Joined Trill, etc.

    May want to try talking to the transporter officer at the shipyard, ask what happened to the old transporter officer and then it should unlock the direct transport from the shipyard to the academy. From the academy there is no work around for direct transport to the shipyard.

    Lack of competent transporter officers. One's already been executed, looks like we may need to step things up a bit. :D

    I did talk to him before posting. I thought that option wasn't there before so I wanted to see what it said. But still Academy is not selectable.

    I guess he's about due to die too then. lol

    it wasn't always like that but the transport chief would mess up allot and I mean allot. and you didn't always end up where you selected.

    so from the shipyard you have to beam to 1st city now. and if chat with the transporter chief in both locations ( you can chat with them) they tell you the last chief was executed for incompetence. as we all used to joke about doing every time they messed up and sent us to the wrong place.

    First City one only gives the options of where to go with them being selectable. It doesn't have the "what happened to the other transporter" option. It does let me select between ship, Academy, or Shipyard though.

    As far as I can tell it's a bug that was introduced back when the KDF was opened up to start at level 1. One of the new missions that a pre-existing character will not have completed unlocks the additional transport options from the shipyard. I don't know which one as I took both my characters through all of them when I was expertise harvesting before I noticed it had fixed it.
    Just open up the mission journal and start accepting the story missions that aren't flagged as completed.

    All of my KDF were made before the level from 1 change. So that seems to be it. I have to do the early tutorial missions to unlock it on each character. I guess it also gives the KDF version of Toven (Boff you have to get) which none of mine have except the one I just ran through to test what you said.

    Not executed, but promoted to chancellor.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
