Update: Bethesda has fixed this issue as of the January 30th path: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/62604

Update: Bethesda is also tracking this issue

The "Rough Landings" quest encounters a bug during the "Meet Up with Milena Axelrod" portion of the quest. After talking to Marko Jansen, the quest script sometimes fails to spawn Milena (and her ship) and halts the quest script. A quest marker will show on the map, but jumping to the planet indicated by the quest marker triggers nothing. No Crimson Fleet, no Milena.

Redditors have explained the issue also.

Details

Quest Name Rough Landings Quest ID: 001A8B64 Error occurs when spawning Milena Stage: 100

✅ Milena's spawn is randomly selected amongst the celestials in the Cheyenne system. ❌ The quest script does not check the built-in conditions (there cannot be any FC or UC vessels where she spawns) of her spawn until after it selects a spawn point. ❌ What occurs infrequently is that the quest script selects a planet in the Cheyenne system like Montara Luna (that has a permanent security patrol) as the spawn for Milena, realizes that she cannot spawn (due to the permanent security patrol), and proceeds to run the same loop repeatedly without changing where to spawn until the program enters a failsafe that auto marks the quest as stopped so that it is not running in the background permanently. Note: This quest generally works properly, because the script chooses a planet that does not have UC or FC vessels

4. A quest marker will appear at the planet Milena is supposed to have spawned at
5. Jump to Milena
6. If Crimson Raiders and Milena are not there, you've successfully reproduced the bug! 👏
7. If Milena is there and everything seems to work fine, do the following to reset the quest:

Additional Note: The Stage 200 Note shown in xEdit below is misleading. Milena can spawn anywhere in the Cheyenne System, not just at Agamon C

Note: It is possible for this quest to work properly, if the script chooses a planet that does not have UC or FC vessels
