Unable to attack pandoran lair?

[Blech]

I have a lair that showed up after a base defence on my own base. I flew a loaded transport to it but when the transport arrives no option to attack it appears. When i click the Lair, I would expect a "Deploy" button to appear but no options appear, even though the "click" action sound plays,.
I have tried flying another transport there instread, I have activated the base that is next to the Lair, and I have restarted the game. Nothing works. How do I fix it so I can attack the lair?

Encountered the same issues as well, with similar attempts to fix not working either.

Same thing happened to me. Tried restarting, tried using a different transport, deploy button doesn't appear.

You should send your savegame at PP support email : [e-mail]

I have the same issue

Well, at least their gamebreaking bugs are consistent...

Thanks pascal.difolco! They were very helpful, and gave me a console command to take care of it.

Would you mind sharing? They didn't get back to me

Anyone figured this out yet? My reputation keeps taking hits every 4 days because I can't get rid of a Lair exactly as OP describes (I can attack other nests/lairs just fine).

Here is a workaround via console commands:

move mouse cursor on the lair
open console and type: alien_promote_base
The lair becomes citadel and it is possible to attack it.
In case you do not want to fight the citadel load the tactical mission, open console and type win.


How to activate console:

Open notepad or any other software that allows you to create text documents. Create a new document. Add only this sentence into the document:

disable_console_access = false

Save the document and name it autoexec.cfg

Move this document to your Phoenix Point folder. Where this folder is depends on where you installed Phoenix Point but for example default path for Steam installation is: Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Phoenix Point\

Once the autoexec.cfg file is there, start Phoenix Point and press ; (semicolon) to open the console.

After much faffing around, I also learnt you need to be in mod mode to use the console commands.

It seems for some reason mission is not attached to this site.
Due to source code the following method should fix this (below):
just point to this geo site and type in console alien_base_fix_mission
I used dnspy to edit Assembly-CSharp.dll.
I used GeoAlienBase.PromoteBase as a reference.
Need to add method to some class other than GeoAlienBase because adding method to GeoAlienBase breaks the game.

using System;
using Base.Utils.GameConsole;
using PhoenixPoint.Common.Core;
using PhoenixPoint.Geoscape.Entities;

namespace PhoenixPoint.Geoscape.Levels
{
public partial class GeoLevelControllerHelper
{
[ConsoleCommand(Command = "alien_base_fix_mission", Description = "Fix alien base mission for alien base site under cursor")]
public static void FixAlienBaseMission(IConsole console)
{
GeoSite geoSite = GeoSite.SelectSiteUnderCursor(true);
if (geoSite.Type != GeoSiteType.AlienBase)
{
throw new ConsoleCommandException("Must select active base!");
}
geoSite.CreateAlienBaseMission();
}
}
}
