    Why am I telling you all of this? This issue doesn't happen every time one plays the mission and I just don't have the time to play through this mission over and over again to try and find where it is breaking. Therefore, I need your help to track this down. If you folks can find the point(s) where the mission is getting out of sync, and especially if you can remember what you were doing just before it happened, that will help greatly to track down the exact point where the mission is breaking, which is necessary to be able to fix it.

    The problem is that the mission allows you to advance even if you don't destroy the ship escorting the I.K.S. Targ, but you will not receive credit for completing the mission, because you still have an unfulfilled objective, namely, destroying the escort. When I encountered the bug, the escort was stuck in another object, and I was unable to target it.

    Good information, thanks!

    UPDATE:
    I was able to confirm the issue and sent it off for a fix. Thanks for the help.

    While we're on the subject of Doomsday Device bugs, I've noticed that the Federation ships at the end all seem to have the wrong skins. For example, Typhoon-class battleships have Galaxy-X skins and so on.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    I have been having this same issue and have been very frustrated with the whole ordeal. It took me a while to find this thread and I'm glad I did. Apparently I made the same mistake all three times I did this quest. I thought I was being clever catching the Targ away from his escort and disabling him Ninja Style.

    I will now go and attempt this quest a 4th time but this time I will destroy the escort.
