Thread: Y-8 Mining Mission Walk through start to finish
Still bugged, and as an added bonus my pilot trainer won't talk to me while this mission is open.
Yes!
Noticed the same thing.
Got enough Space XP (finally!) to train in my first tier 4 skill last night, went to the trainer and was told that I needed to finish what I had started.
I had no open missions from her.
Was going to file a ticket, until a buddy suggested searching the forums for it.
I finally found this bug in a completely unrelated thread. But once I deleted the mining mission, viola! She was willing to train me.
Heavy X here I come!
By the way, this is the Rebel Pilot mission, but I understand they are all like this now.
For shame devs, for shame.
Fix this bug!
I want a Mining Ship!
You were able to cancel your mining mission?? Were you at the stuck point? (escort convoy) How?
When I go back to Captain what's-his-nose, he just says to me "Get a move on!" something like that, not radial with a cancel option, and speaking to other NPCs gives me the same result pretty much as the Trainer, "OH yer busy!!". bah
New players should not consider this mission bugged.
At Alliance 1-1-1-1, flying a Y-wing, I accomplished missions 1-4 (admittedly the Kashykk asteroid bandits forced me to eject once and hyperspace away badly damaged another time, but the patrol bandits were not very aggressive, and they didn't even get through my shields), so I now am capable of asteroid mining on my own. I've struck an excellent deal with a shipwright, and now have a real income source for this game.
I figure in a few months, when I can use a Y-8, they will have fixed the quest, and I'll play through the rest.

I'm stuck at the same point, Ive tried deleting mission from datapad and getting it from Captain Moh again. He reacts like you failed and offers to give it to you again, tried lauching into space and no waypoint or message appears on the screen. Tried flying Kashyyyk space to see if it would come up but no luck.
Submitted bug report and CSR ticket now comes the fun part.
Still bugged as of todays patch, did it from scratch got to the 7th mission having ensured that i had deeded and removed any multi person ships from the dp ( even put the deci in a driod ) went up into space no waypoint to start the mission tried aborting and retrying still no joy
Not that it helps much but there it is.

In another forum one of the Dev's posted about adding 2 more weapon mounts to the Y8. There's been problems with
the y8 since pub 18. Being that we are in pub 21 I'd be guessing we will be waiting a while.. but I hope it's sooner than
later.. I'm another one who's been dieing to use a y8.. Started playing this game in Beta testing.. played it for over 2 years and
took 6 months off.. Back into the grind. Do like the CU changes so far.. just wish they'd finish working on the y8 bugs already..

I have a question: I am on Mission 5 currently, trying to use the tractor beam to take the resources off the shuttle, but every time i try to use the tractor beam it blows up the transport. It spams me with "Increment count!" and i have no idea what i am doing wrong. I am using the Arc 170 and have the tractor beam set to main gun. I have a friend in the back seat as a rear gunner incase anything comes up. Should i use a different ship? Maybe the grevious ship? do i put it in slot 2? do i keep the resource container in the ship or do i remove it? Also the resource container is at 0%. Thanks in advance.
Having same issue. Unable to complete mission after innumerable attempts.
