Freight missions: C.O.L.E. - how many?

[Robert]

Hi. I'm currently doing the freight missions, and after Glacio I'm wrapping up Calidor. Now I can do a mission (on Glacio OR Calidor?) to get that special C.O.L.E. train car. But I've read that the max number is limited per player. So... do I have to decide if I want COLE on Glacio or Calidor, and do the mission on the planet of my choosing?

Hmkay, after checking the English wiki (the german version I use for the most part is outdated and doesn't cover the latest game updates/missions), it seems that there can be only one COLE per player per savegame. But you can use the packager and move it to other planets, so there's that.

You don't need to use packagers for this, you can just reclaim it a landing pad, like you can with the galastropods.

Already noticed that, but thanks for the heads up. Quite comfortable, although I don't quite understand why they would limit it to just one per player, because it's a nice upgrade to the regular train. Although it's not too bad because you can also reclaim them at the freight stations.

good morning

I am currently on calidor for the train mission I found the artifacts and as soon as I returned the quest the pylons for the obelisks have disappeared I want near the core just above where the obelisks are supposed to be and the surprise I can't find any, I've been looking for 2 hours after doing all the floors below the artifacts down to the core and I haven't found them.
is it moving??

Hi, sorry for the late answer. For the freight mission on Calidor, the 1st step are some glowing cube artifacts which can be found in the 1st or maybe 2nd cave layer - which you already finished. For the 2nd step you have to find obelisks and blow them up (and carry the exploded shards to the freight station either by train or manually). Those obelisks are deeeep down, I think it was the last cave layer before you reach the mantle/core. You can't see those obelisks on the map, but you can see pylons which are near the obelisk clusters so that you can build a railroad down there and attach the rail to the pylons, like in the earlier missions.

The freight missions become a bit harder along the way, meaning that the obelisks are a bit more rare than the stuff you needed in earlier missions, but you should be able to see the pylons on your map even if you're on the surface (at least that was the case for me). Dig down to the core and watch your map, it _should_ be obvious. Maybe your map glitched out, try saving and restarting the game?

yes I'm in this area (mantle region just above the core) for a long time I went around it without finding anything no pylon on the radar nor obelisk while everything else appears well on the radar cache exo etc I I disconnected several times nothing worked

[Robert]

Hmm, dunno then. Did you turn in the artifact mission after finishing it, so that the next mission gets started?

[geckoleo]

yes
