I can't for the life of me figure out how to claim victory on a map after you've selected the "Continue Playing" option.

I have a few maps right now that I've finished, but didn't select the "Claim Victory" button at the end, instead selected "Continue Playing". After I've finished done playing the maps, I want to mark them as finished (i.e. Claim Victory), but I can't see anywhere how to do this.

I've looked throughout the forums to try to find an answer, but came up empty. It's gotta be something simple that I'm just not seeing.

Just click on the Leave World button and you should get the option to submit your score (that's what Claim Victory does).

Tried that, but the only options I get are "Exit Mission" and "Cancel". If I exit, it still shows as incomplete (yellow triangle) in the orbiting map overview.

It always works for me when I continue playing a map and then leave world then exit mission, it shows green for me always,
Not sure about your problem, but if a map is complete and then the submit score shows up, it should become green. If no submit score appears, something is wrong...

Yeah, I'm thinking the latter, problem with submitting scores.

Here's the sequence I get. Game is done, victory conditions met:


Then leave the map:


And finally the scores page (which is likely where the problem is, no option to submit):

What mission is this and how are you launching it (from what part of the game are you launching the mission)?

This is in Tormented Space, S200_0, Waternaris. I launch it from the overview map, as in here below, loading a saved game:

I am using version 2.08 on windows, what version of game are you using on what operating system, this is how the scores screen should look like, and it can also show the text "new or improved score, submit score." in yellow when a map is first finished.

Yes, am using the new 2.08 version as well, running on Windows 7. I was on 2.04, and then tried updating to 2.08 when trying to fix the problem (without success obviously).

Strange, I've tried to replicate this on other maps that I've just finished, but can't reproduce the error. I only seem to have this problem on this specific map and a couple of others.

Thinking now, I play on two different machines, and just sync the player directory over the network between the two PCs. Are there some user-specific markers in the save game file that could prevent me from claiming victory? I do have the same issue with this map on both machines I play on, but maybe I overwrote some settings in a previous sync that orphaned this particular map somehow.
