Yaki plot gone for good?
was doing the yaki plot and reached the part where I have to choose between 3 missions (yaki, terran, mix). I took a break for some hours and went to empire building. Suddenly the quest "failed" because a wild Xenon I went nuts and destroyed the yaki. I went back in order to find a newly spawned station but all I found were some yaki pilots flying around and of course serveral xenon fleets.
Is there any way to get the station back (no modding)?

edit: when asking those npc pilots where is their leader, I get the answer "I don't know"

X4 sandbox is full of surprises. Keep us posted on what happens next.

How do you know, twas Xenon I? Since race relations are set in stone forcibly and random friendly fire doesn't work OOS, I somehow find that unlikely.
Afaik, technically Yaki station isn't set essential, so it can be destroyed before plot is finished (as well as after), but usually roaming Terran fleet was reported as culprit.

Now that's what I keep in check from time to time if any Terran stray itself the sector prior to Savage Spur I did just board those Asgards if they had not be wipe by Xenon.

Unfortunately this plot ends if the Yaki lose all of their stations after you've come to the big decision point.

If you made the decision to tell the Terran Secret Service about their location, the mission counts as complete. If you didn't it counts as cancelled.

So I have a question that no one has ever been able to answer.

Are the Yaki supposed to give out quests after their plot mission is over? I've been purposely flying by their station every so often for the last ~300 hours or so and I've never once seen them offer a quest.

And you said "stations". Are they supposed to have more than just their little HQ shipyard?

@piep

the same problem happened to me. the station is/was destoyed by xenon. that was what i could only watch...do you have older savegame? you could save it. when you turn off the active state of mission briefing while the yaki is attacked it will dissapear sadly.. leaving the plot of made so far worthless.. that was...why i made xenon instinct by now.. all of my hate gone now.

I basically am camping in that base, due the explosive map expansion glitch had actually notice no mission generation from yaki in fact most of the mission issuer are ANT within the sector.

They're supposed to offer missions like any other faction, yes.

Without mods, the Yaki only have one station, that's true. But the story script can handle expanding Yaki, should somebody want to mod that in.

Simple. I had a ship parked there so I could teleport if needed.

yes, I let a bunch of old save games behind so I can finish the quest just in case and then move along with my more recent saves.

smlia to mine lol. except my ship was on the stations for some min to hours and then i got it away form the station, sadly the xenon didnt bother with the ship. they didnt liked me stationed on the yaki station..sad. i loved building moreya fleets form it. proably the best S ship in the game. egosoft should add to recover blueprints by disambling a ship.

I always have a ship parked on the yaki station in all my games. No xenon ever seemed bothered by that, unless I undock. Once the ship is there, keep it there, nail it to the floor, turn it into a hotdog stand, you choose... but don't undock it.

Could you guys look over the code to see if it's working? It sounds like it's bugged. I would LOVE to get a build mission from the Yaki. They'll be a superpower in no time.
