Nowhere to go mission bug

[jmfjohn]

I'm on the nowhere to go mission and it seems to be bugged: the FRS Andrasta goes its own way, enters hyperspace and then...it's immediately destroyed, thereby failing the mission.

I tried various things, including transferring all power to engines after takeoff so I reach the hyperspace nav buoy before Andrasta reaches hers and I did...but somehow the Andrasta is still destroyed some seconds later.

Anyone run into this?

I've also tried disabling tour craft collisions and setting tour invulnerable, but the Andrasta still gets destroyed after hypering out.

Not sure what else to try at this point...

Which mission number is this?
I don't think it's a bug others have come across.

What level setting are you playing on, hard etc?

[jmfjohn]

It's mission number 7 from the prologue.

I'm playing on easy, I'll try switching it and see if it makes a difference.

Try the mission in this thread. It maybe newer.

But as seen it's not been bugged for everyone.
I'll try and test when I can.

Wow, the difficulty setting fixed it! I changed it to Medium and behold, the Andrasta was no longer destroyed upon hypering out.

Thanks for the suggestion Ace Antilles!

Hmm still I don't know why it's bugged on easy.
I have a note to try and test it when I get time.
Glad it's working now

Well I just played it through on easy with no issues.
Just one of those random things maybe
