Bug in Campaign 2?

Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!

This did work - doesn't get rid of the entry in Mission Status for the hung mission but it does allow me to progress on through the campaign. I assume this was simply a case of wading through the MainEvents.txt file to find the appropriate EventName and starting the mission after it? Had looked at this previously but didn't know the right syntax to use.

Thanks again, Phoenix!

Yup. I'd still like to know what happened to that missions though..and be careful, you can only have 3 active at a time.

A friend is having a strange problem related to this bug. In his case the Abbidon starbase has disappeared from the map, hence the mission (and the one following it, I think) cannot be completed. Is it an actual starbase or one of the planets? If it's a starbase, it's gone on all maps & views. Why??

Things named "Starbase" are actual starbases.

It is possible the base was destroyed in combat... AFAIK, that's the only way it would dissapear.

You mean that other units destroyed the base on their own? If so, that would be a major flaw. The bugs in this mission are game stoppers.

It is conceivable that it occured. Highly unlikely, though.
Perhaps if a couple of ships or fighters rammed the base, or if it was stock and the base's shields weren't regenerating at a decent rate, it could just get worn down.
