Not Able to Complete The Ninth Rule Patrol

in PC Gameplay Bug Reports
Only started this afternoon, when doing The Ninth Rule Patrol on any difficulty (first noticed on Elite), After talking to Stamets and the Ferengi, you battle the next wave of enemies and the Ferengi ship disappears. Still does the dialogue box but the ship is nowhere to be found to engage the tractor beam. Have to leave the Patrol.

    That happened to me once a few weeks ago, but I thought it was a fluke since it did not happen to me again. Hopefully it is not some new bug trend.

    It's happened to me too - only once, though, and quite a while back.
    I believe it happens if you kill all the spawned mobs too quickly.

    This happens specifically when you fly into the next mission marker too quickly. In most situations, you can fly outside of the circle marked on your map and back in (I think we've all done this at least once or twice in an episode) but this one if you're in the circle too early when you start the dialog, it'll break the scripting that spawns the ship in.

    That is definitely the issue...this is a very old issue. When you kill the 2 sets of ships at start of mission, stay there until you get the marker to proceed to next section and you will avoid the bug. There is circle on map for area of current objective...just stay near that until get next objective.
