I cant do this assignment. I tried to exit the game, re-log , etc. It will not let me to chose my security officers to do the return contraband assignment. I have about 6 free security officers. This is happening in my federation character. In the new horrible ESD.

Please, cryptic, fix this.. zz.

    May or may not help ...
    I keep having the UI somehow "on the wrong thing" for this mission. It is easily fixed for me: click manually on the officer slot (bottom righthand corner, there is a "slot" for the officer, its green with text on what qualities are good for the job) and after manually clicking on that it allows me to apply my officers. Before manually clicking, it sounds like what you describe -- no officers are in the recommended list etc ...? Happens to me about 4 times a week (across 2 characters that constantly turn in contra).

    If your DOFFs don't show up, look for that mission in your personal tab, then click on it. Happens to me all the time at the academy when I'm trading my officers in.

    I only have 2 options. The fisrt one is the usual one, no aplicants in the recommendation roster, the other one is to tell the game to show me my entire roser, still no security officers showed (in fact no officers at all..) and the last way is to go to my personal tab. But i get the same result, i dont have security officers lol.

    did you click where I told you, on the empty "put the officer here" lower righthand box? Again, that solved the same symptoms for me. You could have a different problem.

    Showing the roster won't help: it does not understand that you want an officer at all because the UI choked.

    I may have a suggestion...

    Check your Bridge officer assignments.

    If you BOffs got unassigned form their stations, or the department heads got reset, this could happen.


    Hope it helps.

    Hmm.... lol, maybe thats the issue. Because by time to time i need to reassign my boffs to their stations (the other bug) , and maybe this was one of those times.

    Yes i did that, in the first step. It doesnt matter if i click on the destination slot, it will not show me any doff on the left.

    Happens to me from time to time too... what I've seen and found is that if you simply got to the Stations tab, your BOffs reappear (most times) at their assigned stations. If not, you simply re-assign back to where they are supposed to be.

    Then going into the DOff assignments, you are now getting officer recommendations.
