Watchtower Issue

[Mark1959]

Hello all,
First time posting here, I am having an issue with my Watchtower Mod and hopefully someone can assist me.
I am stuck in a loop where Gren keeps telling me he is busy and comeback later, so I can't add ships to my fleet. Its like all the dialog is stuck even Torin keeps repeating himself.

Any help with this issue would be most appreatiated, as I love the mod.

Thank you ahead of time,

R/s

Hey there! Is this before or after you've dealt with the Watchtower listening post and array in the Altair system? If after, have you spoken to Harper, Gren, and Torin? Gren may remain with that blocking line until the quest completes. That said you should still be able to access the fleet terminal near him to swap your fleet ships around.

If the issue persists could you provide a list of other mods you are using if any, and, if you are on PC, a save file?

Looks like you're still on 1.0.2 and haven't updated to 1.0.3, although I don't think that's the issue. Have you looked at this thread on the same topic: https://forum.kinggathcreations.com/threads/gren-sorry-busy-now-come-back-later.339/ It goes into more detail including issues with having a companion along.

With that said I still can't add ships to my fleet, I can add sky drops but no more ships. In my fleet I only have on. I modified another but can't assign crew. Ideas??

You have to turn in more computer cores in order for Gwen to allow you to increase your fleet size. As to assigning crews, I used Korodics Fleet Commander mod instead of this built in one, so I'm not too familiar with this one.

Thanks for the quick response, I had 124 computer cores, isn't that enough? I did add 2 skydrops though. Do you think I still need more?

 

[Lostinwhere]

Yeah...that's plenty. You might also have to progress beyond certain points in the quest for Gwen to allow more and more ships to be added to the fleet.

From the Watchtower FAQ:

"Watchtower really only requires that you use one fleet ship from its mechanics for story purposes, and can eventually unlock slots for another 8 - which would be all the ships you can have in the base game.

If you are using mods to extend beyond 10 ships, it might be possible to use Fleet Commander for additional ships - though likely you'd run into performance issues."

I only had a few ships in my fleet by the time the final mission came around and I didn't even use them. My home ship had enough firepower and shielding to get the job done.

Hi there, are you still experiencing this problem?

There are 10 ships total you can have once you have fully maxxed out your fleet size with Gren, and the ability to expand this size is only locked behind completing 'The Stars Have Eyes' - if this quest is completed, then you just need to talk to Gren and select "I want to upgrade the Fleet Command System, or maybe something else."
