Unable to beam to ship from ESD.

wraithmeister

None of my characters (Original, AoY, etc) seem to be able to use option to transport off ESD to ship anymore.

The transporter icon attached to minimap is permanently grayed out and there is also no transporter option in lower right of screen.

If I step on transporter pad, the only option is to beam to academy -- no option to beam to ship or to return to sector space. SO I have to either beam down to academy, then beam back up to ship, or I have to acquire an episode with transporter option which will let me beam off ESD to the episode location.

I'm not sure exactly when this stopped working for my characters.

I have this problem too. I am stuck on ESD.

I've had the issue on multiple characters intermittently for at least a month now. You should be able to beam to the Academy and then beam to your ship from there (at least that's always worked for me).

Old bug that comes up from time to time not just in ESD. I've had it happen on other maps as well.

If you are stuck there or somewhere you can select a mission and pay the ec to go there directly then your in sector space it might help you a bit

Also isn’t there an command like “/unstuck “ that brings up a warning and will take you somewhere?

I was already aware of methods to get off ESD (beam down to academy or get a mission with transport option). But purpose of this thread was to get issue fixed rather than keep bypassing it.

In any case, my characters were able to begin using transporter again after the patch last thurs or Friday. I suspect it was the ESD instances that got bugged and since patch restarted all the instances that might have fixed it (until the next time it happens). Would be nice if there was some debug snippet in the code that alerted devs anytime someone was on ESD , with no windows or dialogs open but without transport option), to collect details on how it got into that state so it could be fixed.
