Cube mystery stuck?

[barrygreybeard]

I progressed through the mystery and arrived at "We communed with the Ancients in a collective dream. They were impressed by our creativity" in Sol 238. It's now Sol 303 and nothing has happened since.

As far as I can see all cubes have been collected up. But I do have one issue though, I cannot delete one of the cube storage depots, it says its empty but will done disappear when destroyed.

Anyone any ideas?

I think I am at the same stage but thought it was completed because I got the achievement. But there is still the notification in the top left corner which opens the mystery log and also the notification which says Cube-Countdown: 0 hours (or similar, I have the German version).

If you got the Geoscape Dome unlocked and ready to build, after the last message, you finished the black cube mystery. Still, they are a great source of extra 50% power for solar panels.

I seem to have finished it then as I do have that Dome unlocked., I cant dismiss the Mystery Log though, I thought that was a sign that the Mystery hadn't been completed.

I actually got a different reward out of that Mystery, as I may have completed it differently (I got the Mohole Mine rather than the Geoscape Dome). But yeah, the log and cube countdown came back on my next reload of that game and never went away again, either.

I think it just gives you a wonder tech that you don't already have (or perhaps something else if you already have them all?). If you already have the Geoscape tech, then you'll get another one instead.

This mystery frustrated me because I was RPing too hard in that I didn’t want to destroy the cubes to study them, nor did I want to bring them inside in case they were dangerous... I kept waiting for more options, never got them and so I ended up not doing anything and then received a morale malus at the conclusion... I was not happy. Stupid ancient civilization...
