anomaly not appearing on a surveyed planet

[Hominin]

if you're not familiar with the "power from beyond" questline, this will contain spoilers.

earlier in the game, i did some exploring to find a spot for my main outpost and ursa major II is pretty sweet so i built an outpost there and surveyed the whole planet.

now, i need to acquire the power on... ursa major II and i think that broke the story :( i have the mission active but there is no anomaly to investigate (assuming this is due to the planet being 100% surveyed). show on map and set course options for the mission are enabled but do nothing and there is no mission marker on maps.

anyone else run into this issue already and have a workaround? is there a way to unsurvey a planet? i am fine with losing the outpost if it'll fix the issue.

I am getting the same type of bug on indum iv-d. I surveyed it earlier without going to the system and it hasn't given me a landing spot for the anomaly to find the temple. More great work from bethesda...

If you have a save prior to being given the mission try loading that and see if re-triggering the quest fixes it.

If not try randomly landing on the planet, I have seen somebody post that they eventually found a landing spot that had scanner distortions that led to a temple.

My personal experience I did have a landing spot highlighted but it had the wrong icon and there was no scanner distortion. Reloading and re-triggering the quest worked for me, possibly because it sent me to a different planet.

If you land in a completely distant area from any one you've already visited on that planet since the game's supposed to auto-generate the POIs on a new tile it can hopefully trigger it to appear for you that way.

Anomalies are not what you are looking for. You are looking for Temples. The two are not the same. Surveying a planet does not stop it spawning POI, its only a report card for your player.

Last night I noticed that this happened when I got the quest, and it was in a system I hadn't visited yet. So I never got the tracking to the star system even. Flew to some of the nearby star systems, and eventually that activated, but then when I went to the planet, I never got the marker. Tried bouncing to a couple of other planets in the system, and nothing. Then went and got another power, and magically it showed up now.

Been having a lot of weird issues with quests like this lately.

Try switching ships. I was using Razorleaf and it was showing some...issues. the final straw was not getting the scanner interference on a planet with a temple. I switched to the Frontier and lo, the anomalies showed up

Same. Since the last update I've had the old bethesda "Quest says it's outside but go outside and it says it's inside" bug and that's never happened till the patch.

For me, it is freaking Skink. Many other people have an issue with that one as well.

I've tried doing other quests, restarting the game, etc. It never gives me the location for "Power Beyond... Skink."

Same. :(

For me ist was Bessel IIIb.
I build an Outopst there with a Scanbooster, and did 100% survey.
Find the Temple Quest ist there, but no Scanner Anomaly were i could land.

Happening for me on guniibuu ii... no scanner anomaly to land on and no scanner distortions anywhere. I can land on a spot and find 5 grav anomaly but no temple

Happening to me to since going into NG+... I believe the next game update should correct it if what I read was correct...

hopefully it fixes a game in-progress, but most likely need a new game or a NG+.

I read somewhere a few weeks back they've already fixed it for new games, and an upcoming patch (hoping this next one) will fix it for games in progress...

I started this game after the last beta went public release, so if they fixed it for new games it's still broken for Skink ... and I hadn't even been there before, it popped up in my quest list upon entering the star system.

Wasn't there a small patch a week or so back? That wasn't Beta tested? Maybe that's the patch that the post was referring to for new games and you started before that patch?

I could well be mistaken and it's this next patch that's fixing it for new games, though what I read sounded like it would fix the issue for games in progress...
