A Step Between Stars finished, but all mission progress lost and can't check in.

waywardwanderer · October 2015

So, I replayed "A Step Between Stars" with a lvl 54 KDF toon on Oct. 20 to gather more pieces of the Solanae Hybrid Technologies set. On completing the mission I allowed all the cutscenes and audio to complete, then warped out of the system. Once I was back in sector space near the Dyson Sphere gateway, the mission tracker reset to the first segment of the mission. I was unable to check in the mission, and after a GM contact I re-entered the mission and found I was right back at the start. It's like I hadn't done a thing.

Needless to say, I'm not happy for wasting all that game time with no reward. Does anyone have any thoughts on what happened, or if it can be fixed?
