Discover Ancient Ruins 1/2 - Stuck (EDIT: Solved.)

[rovaira2]

I'm stuck on Discover Ancient Ruins after getting the first one a while ago. I tried getting the alien ones from the cartographer, I also tried the signal booster, but nothing works. Any idea? It doesn't update even after visiting the ruins.

The signal booster is bugged, it should give you a new option to locate the proper ruins using a surge battery like in previous expeditions but it doesn't work this time.

You can still use a chart from the cartographer (Planetary chart with the alien in the description) and this chart gives locations for few types of buildings, if you get the location of a monolith or a dig site don't go there, just keep using the charts until you get something else.

You can also use the radar on the exocraft (regular exocraft, not the minotaur) with the A class radar upgrade to locate alien ruins for free from the quick menu.

I finally got it to work and finished the expedition. :)

Make sure the maps used are labelled find 'Ancient Artifacts'. Don't purchase the maps that find ancient ruin dig sites.

The artifact maps will give directions to find the 'Alien Ruins' needed.

The milestone refers to ancient ruins but in the pop up reference on screen bottom right, the milestone mission correctly says in the text 'Alien Ruins' Alien ruins can be several variations of monolith, plaque or even ruins with a plaque which should complete the task.
