Solution to the broken trading station bug

[Somni_]

As of 0.5.18 (and a few earlier version or so, I've heard), the trading station might bug out. What I mean by this is that the corner trading stations might turn into invisible movable blocks, and stop working. If you've experienced this bug, here's what you should do:

See if you can grab one of the invisible blocks, and bring it to your base. The block will make your tech unable to move while connected, so it would be advisable to just hold it untill you're there. It practically works like a payload terminal that can't be anchored on it's own, so it will have to be anchored to another block, such as a solar generator or a fixed anchor. Then you can start buying things again, as long as you remember where you put it.

You can also place it on a fixed anchor next to the trading station to stay as close to standard play as possible, if that's your style.

Thanks for the tip! I might be able to have a save I can finally play on. I hope they can iron out these bugs soon because I really like this game and playing without the major bugs would make this game fantastic.

Yes, sadly the only workaround for the disappearing map markers is to stay close enough to them, or keep in mind which way is back to base if you're traveling too far away.

By being stuck at 1500/1500, I believe you mean that the harvest boss mission doesn't start, yes? There's no real workaround for that either, and it's the most game breaking bug of the bunch. However, the developers have mentioned the next update being mainly bug fixes, so that's something to look forward to.
