Everything Old is New Mission Bug

Find an Induction Coil toggle missing
As a Romulan-kdf aligned engineer alien at level 47, I've completed the "help McCoy Pioneer a Neural Rejuvenation Procedure" and it shows up in green with a checkmark, but the other sole objective "Find an Induction Coil" stays white, and the room with the big green circle highlight on the map and flashing highlight has no interact that pops up no matter where I stand next to it. I've done this mission many times but haven't had this problem before.

Posting this here for added visibility, and in case someone has any pointers in case I'm doing something wrong, although I've checked the rest of the map and there's nothing left to interact with or any other objectives.

    Just repeated the mission by re-entering the saved sequence, did nothing differently, and the toggle did show up this time so I could complete the mission, so it is a bug.

    The toggle does show up, but you need to get really close.
    I find that jumping onto the console gets me close enough.

    No, it doesn't. I walked all around it and jumped everywhere, no toggle, hence bug. I had to quit and redo the mission from that point for it to pop up, which it finally did on second time around with little difficulty.

    same bug. Can't continue the mission, stuck on the induction coil. I run up to it, it glows but I can't take it. Jumping or getting up the controls doesn't fix it.

    That's very weird - I played this mission last night (on a Gorn) with no issue.
    Well, apart from jumping onto the console like I previously mentioned.
    I will try again with a Romulan to see if the problem is species-specific.

    I realized I've experienced similar issue/solution with my AoY long ago (without remembering the details) though it's no longer relevant beside possibly supporting the bug "hypothesis". This mission was not smooth at all for AoYs then (at least) - but eventually doable.

    And yes, I know your char is not AoY and that your issue was experienced recently unlike mine. (maybe linked somehow too and maybe linked to a past carrier dialogue option bug too - or any other obstacles in this "bumpy" missions, I don't know or remember)

    This bug has been around for many years. It happens if you leave the big room, where you help McCoy, before him. Just wait and let him exit first.

    I just replayed this mission on a new character and it seems the bug stems from a missing or misplaced mission pointer. During the sub-mission on helping Doctor McCoy, there should be another pointer to the station commander where McCoy is headed after assisting him with the two other crew members. There's a brief animation of Bones treating the station commander followed by a very short balloon-type dialogue between the two. Only after this will you be able to interact with the induction coil. Unfortunately, the mission pointer jumps to the induction coil immediately after treating the two crew members in the big room thus misleading players.
