Stuck in tether tutorial

[smykel]

I have little problem with passing tutorial. I have to complete task list by moving objects using tether. I did try to place the in every possible place, and it doesn't matter what I will do I can't finish this training. It keep asking to comlete the task list that is empty. I did try to restar training few times, including restarting game. Is there anything I am missing?

If I remember correctly you need to use tethers to drag boxes into the barge. It's right click BTW - you connect to points (in this case box and barge) and it automatically drags one toward the other.

EDIT: Barge is the big green thing at the bottom.

Yeah I did it but still no luck with it. Can't pass it 🤔

I"m stuck in the same place. I did the 3 tether thing and the task completed. Then I move all of the boxes into the green barge (with the tethers) and confirm that there are no more. I flew all over the place; no more boxes.

I go back to the hab and it tells me to complete the tasks. This is my 4th time attempting. Not sure what to do; seems like a bug.

I'm stuck too. Just bought the game. Counting 11 boxes on the Barge, and the task never completes. The game is unplayable :(

Anyone solve this yet? I'm stuck in the Tether training as well.

Weird, I did this yesterday without issues.

Sorry if you already know this, but I'm going to throw it out there just in case... Intuitively I expected tethers to work by right clicking where you want one end to go, then right clicking where the other end should go. In fact, I think that's basically how your mentor explains it in the tutorial. However, it's actually a click-and-drag, not two separate clicks. You hold down the right mouse button where you want one end to go, then drag and release where you want the other end to go. It took me a few tries to catch on to that.

I "fixed" it by fully waiting for the mentor to explain everything before attempting the task. I noticed it only works if you put them in the barge, I was not able to credit them for the incinerator or processors.

as said already you need to wait till dialog is complete before completing the task

This post is from 2 years ago. Hopefully they've passed the tutorial by now....

Massive p.i.t.a. this is, even in 2023 (Jan 2024). Tethering training modules together and then tethering them to the barge is a bit unreliable - it feels like they're too heavy and so they eventually stop moving. Best method it to tether one module at a time to a spot a few metres under the capture field of the barge and let the modules slowly sink down there. It would be easier if you could force-push them too, but eh.
