Ok so I placed 3 signal boosters
In the same style system and have no opportunity to triangulate them they just sat there now on three different planets I don’t understand what’s going on why am I not getting the option to triangulate?

Did you follow the mission marker for the locations where to place the signal boosters?

Hello Touri :) No I didn’t see those. Where are they? Thank you

Hey Amber, it's in the options menu, where you can select your primary and secondary objectives. If the mission is still listed, select it and you should be able to continue.

If you have the mission selected then it will give you waypoints to where you must place the signal boosters

Here's a mistake I made. I placed the signal boosters, but didn't activate them. Be sure to activate the signal booster. It'll give you a different menu than you're expecting (It'll say something different than habital base, resources, etc). After choose the option and activate it'll give you another waypoint to go to and place another one and repeat again a third time. My mistake was I just went to 3 different systems and placed sginal boosters and nothing happened... ;-)

Yes I saw that the first time I started this mission but this time there was no option to triangulate
Only normal options

Thanks Touri, I’m not sure what you mean, do you mean where do you see markers ? I have selected the mission Thanks !

The Icon markers for the mission point you where to go. Once you have the chosen mission selected, (for the triangulation task) you should see them pop up in your compass or cockpit display, They may direct you to another planet in the system to place a signal booster as not all three triangulation points necessarily must be placed on the same planet. I think that happened to me.

Follow the markers which may be yellow with a white exclamation symbol. They should take you where to go. If you don't see any markers then it is possible to reset the story mission, pressing the middle-mouse button while looking at the problem mission in the Log option screen. Then start it again. Good luck.

Sry, I didn't know the correct name of that menu. It's called 'LOG' in the options menu. Once you have selected the Artemis mission in the LOG a yellow waypoint marker should appear in game and point you to the destination. Follow the waypoint and place there the signal booster.
(If you have been already at that position the waypoint marker disappears - you need eventually to find that position again and active the triangulation on the signal booster.)
After that a new waypoint marker should appear and point you to the next position where to place the second signal booster.. and so on. Let me know if it works.

edit. If you have changed the system, go back to galactic map, a waypoint should display the correct system.

The location of the beacons is very sensitive. I had to move my third one around until I got the proper options to activate it in the triangulation mode. It seems that a few feet can make the difference.

Ah I c! Thanks
