Can't find quest location anywhere. Help?
I'm doing the main story, so will use spoiler tags below (though at this point I'm sure the cats out of the bag.

Anyway, I'm on one of the quests to go to a temple to retrieve a new power. I've done 5 of them so far, always I could select the quest and then "Show on Map" to show me where to go. For this one, that doesn't work. Nor can I find it on the star map if I just scroll around.

Is it because my grav drive is limiting how far I can travel and things I can't reach don't even show on the starmap at all? Or is it because I need to advance the main story more to "unlock" other destinations? Or something else entirely?

So, no one had the answer, but I figured it out.

I just had to find the system and the planet...and the specific moon of that planet, all on my own. Once I located the right moon, the quest marker returned to functioning like normal.
I guess the further you go down that path, the more work you have to do for yourself. Would have been nice if the game actually explained that though.

I'm fine with having to find my way on my own, but it's a departure from quite literally the previous 80 hours of play. A little explanation just saying "hey, this is NOT a bug, you just have to work for it more now" would have been appropriate.

Regardless, I'm not going to delete this thread, in case anyone else has the same issue and searches for it.

No I think some locations just break in the map's Show Location feature and therefor you can't map a route to it. I'm on a new game with all the artifacts and having completed all the major questlines. I took up a mission board quest to Survey a planet and the mission feature to show location is not working. Another mission I have to a different survey location works fine. I've even restarted from desktop. I suppose the only other thing to do is verify files if this gets any worse but for a single location, I might just use an online interactive map to help me find these rogue systems. I recommend https://www.starfielddb.com/star-map/ because you can use the Browser's search feature to find it or use the web sites map filter.

I am stuck on a main quest also, go to a planet and follow 'distortions' on your scanner. Well this time there aren't any. I've landed at the marked location on the planet called 'scanner anomaly'.

Literally walked around for miles, no distortions on the scanner.

This topic is three months old. Do another search for one of the newer ones regarding missing temples, they have more information and feedback.

Unfortunately the topics discussing it have "fallen" off my notifications list.
