How to deploy colonization beacon?
I got permission, reached right spot, but then i press fire and deploy beacon, nothing happend. No error or mistake message. But beacon did not deploing.

I am in the right spot, right zone. Progress bar of deploying go to full 100%, but nothing happens. I did it about 20 times, tried to relog, but all stay the same.

Welp, was about to say log off then back in... Like completely shut off the game + launcher, then back in.

If that doesn't work... it's probably going to require a ticket to support.

Or maybe jump to another sector, then back. At this point anything goes...

In fire groups there is a new thing called SC-Suite, you just add it to a fire group target the beacon site and fire (hold for a bit since it charges I think).

Check in right menu your module bindings.
There is a new one which you must connect to a binding.
After that is done you are able to launch the beacon

Relog, and it should reappear.

Do it quick before someone else claims your system

You said you pressed it, and I've seen a bunch of people saying it doesn't work and it turned out they weren't holding it down. So, I suggested that first in case it was the fix.

Yeah, you right. And because of that I said "Progress bar of deploying go to full 100%".

I have the same issue, except I deployed the beacon successfully last night, went and got some titanium and came back to system thinking maybe the ship appears the next day. Then today I get a message saying "hey you only have 8 mins to deploy your beacon" so I quickly deploy it again. "Phew, weird bug, glad I was here in time". Nothing happens, so I hop out of system thinking maybe the ship will appear today. Nope. "hey you have 0 mins to deploy your beacon". Now I can't deploy it at the beacon site, but I also can't release the claim.

Relogging doesn't do anything. No idea what to do

Hello, i up this thread because the colonization ship is not coming !
I have deployed the beacon successfully, it says "colonization ship called, etc..."
But nothing is coming. I try logout on another system in a station and when i come back i have to deploy again the beacon like it has never been deployed...

Time passes and tomorrow i need to finish the process... What is this damn problem???

Bugs and errors, I suppose. I desided to stop wasting time on this buggy game))) This release is worst then Cyberpunk 2077...

I agree about the colonisation part, i stopped to do anything else until a real fix.
But this game is far less buggy than the one developed by Cig. This one is far worse, thrust me...
