Hello, Philip!

Thank you for writing to us.

We tested the Never Surrender scenario on our end, and the space pirate waves spawned correctly as expected.

Could you kindly provide more details about the issue you experienced? Specifically, you mentioned spending 16 hours creating a weapon platform. Were you near the base while building this platform? It’s possible that the pirate wave had already spawned and destroyed the Beacon on the base, which would end the mission and stop the waves from spawning in this scenario.

Have you tried reloading the scenario or starting a new Never Surrender scenario to see if the issue persists?

If the issue continues after starting a new scenario, please try the following steps to resolve it:

Verify your game files in Steam

  • Right-click on Space Engineers in Steam Library → Properties → Installed Files → Verify Integrity of Game Files

Delete SpaceEngineers.cfg file

  • It means your game configuration will be deleted
  • You can access your SpaceEngineers.cfg by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.

Delete ShaderCache folder

  • Same access as SpaceEngineers.cfg

Once you have completed these steps, start a new Never Surrender scenario and check if the issue still occurs.

Please let us know if any of these workarounds resolve your issue.

Kind Regards,
