Discovery 4.85 Encounter, Mission, and System Bugs

[Vesemir]

Hey. As you can see by my post count, I'm a newb. so if this is the wrong thread, I apologize.
i'm not really sure if this is my problem, or it's a bug.

I've had job bugs in California.
basically, any job I've picked is either ordered wrong, (E.G : A.kill hostiles, B.Dock with trade lane to reach hostiles.) or it gives me no waypoints at all.

and when i reach the site, no hostiles spawn.

plus, when i try to abort missions, after i clicked on abort, and accepted the following query the mission is still ongoing, and it's not aborted. i can only abort by changing chars or disconnection.

am i doing something wrong? or there really is a problem here?

EDIT: i tried magellan, and everything works fine there. so it shouldn't have been my problem...
plus, i noticed that the Mission Commissioner won't contact me in California, and after accepting a quest there i don't get the "launch to space" part you usually get when you start a new mission.
