OK - as you look at your screen - look at the mini map. up is north - left is west and right is east and down is south. now, your wanting to explore due west - the extreme left side is what your after. if you try and follow what is your front ( to the north ) you will eventually come all the way around to where you want to be - thing is - you dont have that much time. there is a walk through if you want.

There is this bug that I experienced (along with YouTube user DarkyErinyes, who did a let's play on this game) where destroying NEXUS's base during the final mission apparently doesn't cause the mission to end, forcing players to have to cheat to see the ending. :annoyed:

bug
Is there a ticket for this?
DarkyErinyes
Any chance you have a link to the video please? Just painful to watch through 144 vids :/
destroying ... base
In this level, the objective is to get the artifact and destroy all New Paradigm droids.

It's the very last video of his Warzone 2100 playthrough (video 144) where DarkyErinyes was forced to cheat to finish the very last level in the campaign. Apparently, the bug hasn't been fixed since 1 year later.

Edit: someone who commented on that video mentioned that destroying NEXUS's VTOL base causes the bug to occur.

the very last level
That's certainly not related to the mission discussed in this thread.

True, but it definitely seems like an actual bug, unlike Alpha 11, where it's pretty much a search-&-destroy mission towards New Paradigm units (some of which could be hard to find). A similar bug seems to also occur at one of the Beta missions that is located away from your base. I think that it's the one where you destroy every SAM site (Beta 9), where sometimes, if you destroy every base, it doesn't end the mission right away.

As for the final Gamma level, isn't the only mission objective supposed to be to destroy NEXUS's core base? There's no mention to destroy NEXUS's other bases, or to keep them alive either, so players would assume that destroying those other bases would be optional.

By the way, i've never experienced the bugs you're talking about.

It is.

I already submitted a ticket describing this bug. What I did before I destroyed NEXUS's main base was that I destroyed most, if not all, of NEXUS's structures outside of NEXUS's main base, including his VTOL base to the south, and his artillery installations in the center, northwest, and southeast. My version was 2.3.8 when this bug happened, though DarkyErinyes was undoubtedly playing an older version when he did his playthrough of the game over a year ago.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a vtol stuck behind a feature (building), keeping the mission alive.
This is why some features aren't implemented: http://forums.wz2100.net/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=7490&view=unread#p87241
