Stellar Multitudes Part 2
I have lost the location to where this system is in the galaxy. I have spent the last 10 hours of my first play through trying to trying to warp to its location. To no avail. I've gone to every space station I have in my list to see if that its the one I need and no luck there.

Is there a way to reset this quest without losing my first save? I admit I had to turn on the free fuel options to even keep warping to get to (what I thought was the quest) as I was burning through too much fuel.
I've looked at save editors and they look to only be cheats and the like.
I've warped well over 1m lightyears away via black holes to see if I could do what I found via reddit for a "reset" option on a quest (some red circle thing on the quest tracker)
This does not work.

I've even traveled through the center of the galaxy to see If that would restart the quest. While it did start the quest again. It just fast forwards to where I was on the quest.

I have also switched to the Experimental build to see if that would work. this has only broken my ships purple drive (I don't know what its a called off the top of my head)

What are my options? or is my 63 (75 total) hours spent on my first play though just wasted?

I am also in the same boat. I created my system and promptly lost it. All the advice of going to where you last were etc, useless. I have been trying to find "Mubdoro" for days. I have somehow found at least two other "pink" star systems, and even renamed one system "Mubdoro" in the hopes that the quest would recognize it. It didn't. I'm now quite bored with warping into infinity and beyond. Its irritating that I cant restart the quest.

I have the exact same problem, all we can do is hope hello games makes some sort of waypoint for it to warp to. Or using a save editor works apparently

Here's a copy/paste of an answer I gave in another thread on the most reliable way to get back.

1. Go into your discoveries
2. Try to find the last planet you landed on(likely a dissonant one) near the system.
3. Add it to personal wonders
4. Look at that planet in the wonders list to get it's address and portal there

It took me about 4 planets before I found the one right by my purple system because I had visited a lot of planets around the galaxy that day.

how do you even check which planets you landed on recently?
The star systems are listed by the date you visited them in descending order. If you click on a star system name, any planet you landed on will appear as a new dropdown tab below that star name. Just click on a few and you'll immediately see what I mean.

This means if you lost your purple star system yesterday, look through all the stars with the time "Discovered 1 day ago", ignore any with no visited planets and then try to remember the last planet you were on with the remaining ones.

Was it dissonant? Was it green? Did it have rings? Like I said, I visited a lot of planets that day all around the galaxy and it only took me 4 portal jumps to find the last planet I got an inverted mirror on right by the purple star system.

It only put me in the same line of galaxies that I had already been following. I'm now at about 10 hours trying to track this down. and still no luck.

Ngl this has ruined the game for me. The only fix I have be told that works 100% is to start a new character. why is this the only option?
Looking into discoveries worked for me, ty Wickian
What you need to locate is the ATLAS STATION that you performed the sideload in, which "created" your new Purple system.

If you never landed at the Space Station, or never landed on a planet; you will have no record of the system with the Atlas Station.

Sadly, this is the system (or one close by) you need to return to, so that you are within a jump from your new purple system.

UPDATE: I just tested this. If you can go back to your previous system, back where the Stellar Multitudes started. From there you would have obtained the mission to perform the Sideload.

If you open the galaxy map and set the path to "Atlas Station", the game WILL send you back to the same Atlas Station. Once you've found that, you should be in the vicinity of your purple system

ok so I am in the correct system, my atlas station is here, but how do i know where my system is ? is it labeled in galaxy map or something ? ? if I switch to current mission, there is no green line to follow. If I try jumping through the core it says I need atlantid drive, which I already have installed. So I'm stuck. No restored stystem, no line to follow, not able to warp to purple. help

Ok great, but I know I'm at the correct atlas station, and I know I'm in the vicinity. But how the hell do i find the purple star ? It's not labeled on the map, there's no green line to follow

Check you active quests to make sure you have the right one selected, then on the galaxy map make sure you're pointing towards your active quest and not the center of the galaxy.
The fact that the mission can't be restarted like other missions is a bug, IMO -- I suggest sending a bug report to the devs at https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us (you don't have to log in, it's really easy).

FWIW, I briefly tested the latest beta and the green line came back. However, I was nowhere near the system target, so I don't know if it actually led anywhere useful.
The In Stellar Multitudes has had several fixes in the recent v5.5x updates. I believe the "I lost my created purple system" was supposed to be addressed by this v5.55 patch

This is false for me. The teleporter page sends me to the first galaxy, while the quest marker is in my 2nd galaxy. The physical locations on the map does look similar as I'm jumping 1500 LY at a time down this spiral arm. I have no idea if I'll find it at this rate.
It is listed in your space station teleporter. Also, you can reset the mission & it'll put it next to you.
