Odd bug at fleet mine

As you can see, his EV suit is activated. That disabled bar keeps going back and forth from full to half full and I can't mine like that because it won't let me interact with the crystals. Haven't tried it with Vlugta yet, this is the fleet mine.

Edit:

As you can see, as soon as I transported to the Ferengi ship at Vlugta, I got the disabled bar again. It's caused me not to be able to interact with the female Ferengi. Hmmm, now I wonder if it's going to happen at ESD or any other hub.
Now a LTS and loving it.
Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.

    I have the exact same bug, so it's not an isolated incident. So far I found no way to deal with it.
  • echattyechatty Member Posts: 5,916 Arc User
    So far it's only happened when I try to go outside at the fleet mine and when I transport to the Ferengi ship. ESD and Drozana are fine.

    And I think a lot of others have it too, I've never seen that many EV suits at the ship at one time except during dil events

    Could I get a confirmation that you have attempted the mining mini-game? Our investigation currently indicates this is a UI bug only. But if you're unable to interact, something else may be amiss.

    i have the same bug but on the boldly they rode mission, also evo suit, can't interact with anything.
    i Think it is linked to the environmental suits

    I don't know about others but I did try the mining mini-game and was unable to start it. The prompt did not appear when I neared the crystals and manual clicks did nothing. However I only tried the fleet mine, I did not try the other ones.

    Was unable to even talk to the Ferengi at the mining asteroid to start the minigame.

    Ok, thanks for the additional information, it looks like we've tracked down the culprit and will have a fix soon.

    Oh, thank you! No, I could not interact with anything. I was able to take the mining missions from the mine guy in the fleet mine, but I could not interact with the glowing crystals and I could not talk with Isihl

    Just FYI, this also happened to me at the Risa resort. Couldn't interact with any of the consoles (bank, etc), couldn't activate floater, and so on. Could pet my tribble, and could beam out. Showed up for a second when I landed at SFA, but went away quickly. Came back when I returned to Risa.

    Tribble patch notes http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums#/discussion/1200665/tribble-maintenance-and-release-notes-august-13-2015

    It was stated already that the fix for the skills invalid issue was going live tomorrow. And these tribble patch notes include a fix for the 'disabled' issued you guys are having at dilithium mines and other maps. :)

    It was stated in a half arsed way, and not everyone lives on the forums, some people are just getting home logging on for their allotted STO time after and between work school and other RL issues. Reporting bugs/issues is what we are SUPPOSED to do in the bug reports forum. "Correcting" people whom are reporting issues on the other hand is not. I am having same issue at 22:50 CST. Did not have it at 13:00 CST.

    That issue with the interface happened the moment the usual fixing was done in this thursday. Every time they repair the game on thursdays, more problems usually come up in the game.
  • batmancalero1234batmancalero1234 Member Posts: 53 Arc User
    The program problems are happening so much every time the programmers fix it on thursdays that it is getting to be a bad joke beyond belief.
  • batmancalero1234batmancalero1234 Member Posts: 53 Arc User
    I don't know why they even bother to fix the game when too many problems happen every time they do the usual thursday repair job. It's unbelievable! Thursday repair job, my eye! More like thursday repair TRIBBLE up!
  • batmancalero1234batmancalero1234 Member Posts: 53 Arc User
    I don't know what new mess they're going to create now! It's unbelievable!
  • batmancalero1234batmancalero1234 Member Posts: 53 Arc User
    I love the game but they need to repair all the bugs right now. Every one. Not leave behind new bugs like they always do. I also play STAR TREK: LEGACY and the STAR TREK 2013 GAME on the XBOX 360. I also played STAR TREK: SHATTERED UNIVERSE on the ORIGINAL XBOX, STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY on my old MAC and on the SUPER NETENDO and STAR TREK: STRATEGIC OPERATION SIMULATOR on the old ATARI GAME SYSTEM in the 1980's and on the arcade. All those STAR TREK GAMES I played before never had the bug problems that STAR TREK ONLINE has. The bug problems here happened so much is getting to be even beyond a bad joke. It's becoming an insult to my intelligence. A real insult.
  • batmancalero1234batmancalero1234 Member Posts: 53 Arc User
    It's like the STAR TREK ONLINE programmers think the players are that stupid in not noticing the bugs in the game. But the players do notice the bugs and the programmers needs to fix them right now. Not making up TRIBBLE along the way.

    Games you mentioned were offline games and, unlike MMOs, they were never meant to have additional content added to them. When you come up with new mechanics, optimize existing ones, or make modifications to the engine to give you more wiggle room, bugs sometimes happen.

    Personally, I'd express gratitude over the fact that the devs were on top of the problem when these critical bugs surfaced, identified the cause, and are applying a hotfix on Friday.

    Welcome to the world of MMOs. We all deal with it.

    Batman, there was no need for all that spamming of basically the same statement. MMOs and offline games are not the same and this forum is for reporting bugs to STO. I reported it, Borticus answered and it's being fixed today in about half an hour. The whine forum for those other games is left of Albequerque.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
