Subway mission debris pile bug

[____________Strycker]

I did a retrieve-item mission today that turned out to be
a small subway level -- only 5 rooms. No objective item
was evident on the level. I strongly suspect it was buried
completely beneath a pile of debris in one of the rooms.

In other words I think that the room designer specified
a chest/objective location point on his floor level Z
coordinate, but forgot that the small cube items would
disappear beneath the mound. If the designer tested
the room with a chest, the chest would certainly have
protruded from the pile in a reasonably nice looking way,
since chests are much larger than cube-items.

Anyway, I can't be sure about this as the cause of the
bug, but this is the first time in a long time that I've
been unable to find a retrieve-item object and I scoured
the 5 rooms for a good long time, too.

Oh yeah, it was a retrieve-item mission for a gun of some
kind, I forget which, so I didn't overlook a "weird-looking
bomb" or something like that. The mission objective could
only have been a small cube or one of those weird
gray-rectangle-with-handle thingies.

PS: Thanks "Ashed" for your polite and friendly response to
my petition, though it did occur a good 3 hours after I gave
up on the level....

I've encountered one such mission where I could not find the objective too.

Later there is another similar one where I could not find the objective again. This time, I asked a guild mate to help search the place.

He subsequently found it behind some boxes. Really strange.

So I'm not so sure whether during the 1st case.... was it becoz we overlooked some obscure corners...
