(It's not a coincidence.
I like playing the missions though. I wish they would add a button to all teh entry points that would let us choose a mission set to start there. For example if I go to Tazi a button would show up letting us choose a mission that starts in Tazi. I could then pick a mission or hit a Random button to enter a random foundry mission in Tazi.
Master using it and you can have this!
Be black on the right side. Add properly colored Cheron to the game today!
Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.
Or to have all the ship interior maps (bridges) fixed so that there aren't invisible walls in the captains quarters or non-working turbolift doors?
Test the galaxy inspired bridges, they are completely useless since nothing works.
Fleet Admiral Enterprise-D
A prefab map can't really have anything working on it. Same reason Utopia Planitia has the hologram jumble.
Anything on a base Foundry map is locked that way. Nothing on a base Foundry map can respond to timers or player position.
You can ADD sliding doors as items on the map though. And you can add them on top of an existing open door.
The invisible walls, however, are something I think could be fixed and that's legit as a gripe.
Is great to make your own missions, share and get feedback. And is better to get support. Now the playerbase are asking to get foundry missions and place some in an oficial state, to help to get more content. In the next stage, we can make ships

There's bugs in it so they took it out. Check tribble?

There are some incredibly good Missions in the Foundry. If nothing else you should play through the weekly Spotlight Missions.
Until they attach meaningful rewards(that actually scale based on mission length) to foundry missions, most people arent going to bother taking the time to play them when they can get better rewards in a shorter amount of time from other missions.
Just look at the number of playthru's and get the answer yourself. And no, most of those aren't 3-clicks and your done missions.
And these missions are played without any real rewards from them- in fact in many cases people give tips and actually lose more than they gain.
The Foundry is like any other function of STO like Fleets, PVP, STF's, Doff system, and Crafting. I don't know anyone that plays every one of those things. People play the ones they like. Frankly it's awesome that they give people so many choices.
The truth is most people hate on the Foundry cause they think it's the reason that STO isn't making new story-line missions.
In fact, from what they write, season 6 is the main reason for the mission drought and season 6 was all about fleets. Fleets are the reason for no new storyline missions. But season 7 seems to be their answer to that which will have storyline missions.
That is a big requests that most authors ask for. The work around for that is annoying at best and impossible in some cases based on map design.
Hopefully this is one they can add in soon.
what....?
no. the truth is the switchover from subscription to free to play was responsible for the drought. as for lack of story missions, that has ALWAYS been an issue with this game. nobody is blaming the foundry for it. season 6 had nothing to do with it. and nobody said anything about there being so much as a single storyline *mission* for season 7. they went out of their way to use the term 'story content' and said nothing about the form that content would take. so don't assume we're getting missions any time soon that are related to the story
I can see truth in that. Reading through the forums though I've seen several posts of people blaming Foundry for the drought. That's why I mentioned it that way. I do agree with what you said though.
