Now I know it's not me...re: captured changeling

For the second time, two different characters, I had the captured changeling in my character inventory and it disappeared.

<insert obligatory "'ware the crew" type jokes>


They both disappeared in generally the same time and way. Is there a timer on how long you can have this? I was just about to scoot over to a starbase and turn him in...but alas he was nowhere to be found.


Anyone have an insight to this? Known issue? File bug report?

    I don't think there's any timer on this. I know my first character had her defeated changeling for quite some time before turning it in.
    My suggestion would be to check your overflow bag and your bank. One time I accidentally banked something because the bank window was open in the background and I double-clicked to equip...that was frightening, thinking I'd somehow deleted Mk XII MACO gear...

    There used to be a picture here, but they changed signatures and I can't be bothered to replace it.

    No, on both of them I verified it was in my inventory. The first time because I had never had it before and was kinda stoked to do that doff security mission for the first time. The second time, after doing the mission I checked my inventory repeatedly during my play session to make sure it was there...i.e. after more missions and queued pve missions.

    It disappeared, apparently after doing a mission.


    Next time I replay that mission I will just go straight to the starbase.

    If its the one from the holodeck on bajor, it will disappear as soon as you end the mission.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Maybe that XII carbine in your inventory, isn't a XII carbine...:eek:

    It did not disappear the last time I played Of Bajor (within the last week).

    There is a time limit on the Captured Changelings. It's either 1 or 2 hours after capture that it will disappear. Usually means it died.

    I found that not only did that changeling get removed, but the one I had from earlier in the chain got removed at the same time. I'm guessing that the script just checks for changelings and deletes them, regardless.

    Nah, it was the one I had gotten before "of Bajor". I've never actually gotten a "captured changeling" from that mission.


    Am I drunk? I don't drink, so I don't think so....lol.

    I thought 'Of Bajor' only deleted them if you left the holodeck by the dialogue and not if you use the leave system button

    This. Click beam out, the dialog button deletes your changeling.
