Summary0003394: Subspace Signal Placement in Fallen Spire Story
DescriptionI've reached the part where the second subspace signal within the fallen spire campaign is located. Unfortunately, with my current map the signal says it's located on my home planet. At that point nothing can happen and the story can't continue as far as I can tell.

My guess is this is happening because the closest enemy planet within 2 hops of one of mine must hop through a mark IV planet. I assume the game avoids making you take a mark IV planet in the early game which is good. But as you can see with the save file I've attached, there is no other route.

I tested this by running the military takeover cheat on Murderroad then letting the survey operation complete. The signal is then located on Akitether.

If you try the save file pause it right away since the survey operation will complete 15 seconds or so after loading.

Can you not survey the signal that's on your homeworld? It's intentional that the first two signals can be spawned there if the only alternative is going through a mkIV world, and you should be able to simply survey them right there.

It's a gimme, yea, but it no longer does that for the later signals.

Ah yes, it works. I didn't think it would be so simple. I also thought my survey ship was already on the home planet. Thanks!

Thanks for confirming :) Let us know if you run into anything else, we haven't heard many reports of FS-related weirdness since 5.0, but I'm sure there's something ;)
