Can't get map names from map manager

[9:15] [System] queue_leaveinstance <string> <int>



Boy I sure do wish that I could play the FED mirror event before it ends...Logging out/exiting/restarting doesn't apparently fix this issue - any way to circumvent it?

    I've received this same bug, once several days ago and again today.

    I've encountered this repeatedly myself. Looks like they broke something again...

    I get this problem all the time, I always have to exit the game and log back in, sometimes no difference, but sometimes it works...

    Yea talking with fleetmates it appears this is a common occurence that has been happening for quite some time; it's a little disheartening that's its not even a confirmed issue.

    Same .
    I sometimes get it by STF queues and relogging usually helps , but not always .

    Problem certainly hasn't gone away. It's happened at least three times to me in the last week or so. Basically, relogging etc won't help - my guess is you can only get to the fleet action by requeueing after the instance to which you were supposed to enter ends. Which sucks. Right now I was supposed to grab a late-night dilithium pile by running this once, but I guess the game decided otherwise.

    lollerskates... had this issue on ground fleet actions for my alt... just started on my main...


    has happened both times when I have left the action to reset another bug on the ground (locked out of skill bar) and wasn't able to get back into any fleet action of the same.

    now, left a CE group because it was a typical fail CE group to try another one... couldn't get back in.

    This is VERY common error that GM's should fix asap.

    Some quest can't be done before this is fixed.

    Still happening. There's no way to get into FED Mirror. Well, at least others are having fun, right? :(

    I too have experienced this issue. I did however, manage to get past it with determination. After several failed attempts, I was able to get into the instance. Sometimes it works, others it doesn't. My advice is to continue to try, hopefully it'll work.

    You were not able to get back in because there's a 1 hour timer preventing you from going back into another round. This appears only because you left. If you do not leave a group and are instead kicked or dc'ed, then the timer won't appear.

    This does appear to be a bug that occurs only during specific instances. Other dc's are typically related to connection issues to which many of us experience daily and I'd attribute that to the fact that STO is bandwidth intensive, far more than most other applications and that can and typically does cause issues like these for those of us who aren't connected to an amazing connection.

    Keep your heads up folks, I'm sure they're working on it.

    All you have to do is exit and reload the game and problem solved. It seems to be a memory call failure in the map database, I thought Data and La Forge gave up on that experiment a long time ago. lol

    I'm getting the error when trying to log in on any toon. character selection screen after login is valid, but can't play any characters without 'unable to get map names from map manager'.

    Is this part of the testing? Or do I have a different problem?

    That is pretty much BS. Ive tried to reload the patcher, game, alts, anything im still receiving it 20 minutes after the fact.

    This isnt a data error on your PC like it would be most of the time. Its result of Cryptic trying to figure out yesterday's outage. See red text above thread, first it starts with map manager then you cant login at all.

    Solution? wait for them to fix it and stop TRIBBLE with Users connection to their service.
