Assemble fleet mission BUG/Unfinished feature?

[Scutum]

Specifically Argon vs. Xenon Guild missions( Haven't checked others yet ). First i noticed that they ( assamble fleet missions ) disappear (auto-abandon without any notification) after approximately 1 hour ( game time ) since acceptance. Then i noticed that they all request exactly the same set of ships (Colossus, Behemoth, 3*Cerberus) with exactly the same set of required equipment each. After completion (transferring ownership to ARG) i monitored those ships for hours. They never moved or received any orders. I even tried to kick aforementioned Colossus with a Perseus a few times. It came red in powerless anger as it even failed to pursuit me. No orders received. Game start: Argon,v.1.0 ~400hours, noticed in v.2.20. Did anyone get different experience from this type of missions?

Yeh the missions seem to auto disappear for some reason. Had a build weapon platform one disappear while the platform was still under construction. Very annoying.

The ships you give them are meant to be removed once outside the players vision.

That's the main issue. They IMHO should be immediately ordered to attack/defend/patrol etc. depending on current strategic situation. Otherwise everything concerning guild missions critically lacks any immersion or even value in credit. (You can instead get 5mil/min building and directly selling S ships to a wharf (on my current factory setup) )

Only high-grade mod components as rewards could be of some interest, but why do you need them if you can build 200 S fighters in an hour at most and wipe out any sector you want without spending a single credit?

I personally think that this game lacks balancing ( Also smarter NPC tactical and strategic behavior ) prior to everything else, acknowledging many other issues. This game could be really great as it is on every stage of gameplay even with current limitations and core mechanics...

Hey man question for that assemble fleet mission (exceptional gear awaits me upon completion). What do they want for the cerberus???

I got a "3x Cerberus Vanguard. Damage Mod."

So I applied a minimum loadout then went to the ship dealer and placed a basic damage mod on one weapon for each Cerberus.

The Colossus and Behemoth were accepted but the Cerberus aren't being recognized. :/

It is asking for a specific Damage Mod. I have already reported this as a bug since there is no way to determine which of the many "damage mod" they are asking for.

In my case they asked for the low quality damage only damage mod.

jeeeeez-aaaaaazzzz.

Oof. Just oof. Well there's one mission I'll be avoiding. Damn.

Until it is fixed, you can probe which one is right by placing 1 of each type of damage mods on the ships and seeing which counts and then disassembling and applying the correct mod.

Really?! Well, never had problems like this myself because it never came to my mind to install anything but a simpliest mod on a ship i need to give up.) I just installed a green damage mod (damage only) ,as it is the cheapest and easiest in terms of components, on one of main weapons and it worked. Though i checked Cerberus part of this quest only 2-3 times, so maybe i just got lucky.

All the PAR assemble fleet missions want a Zeus Vanguard with two large turrets the Zeus Vanguard only has one large turret
