Mission End Condition Not Triggering After Cocoon Destruction

Status:	Closed
Priority:	High

Steps to Reproduce

Try the mission over and over until you hit the Cocoon again.
Realise that Salt Pits is probably the easiest map for this to happen on.
Consider that the line of code checking for open space when generating the map may have failed to leave enough space.
Hypothesise that the Cocoon isn't invincible until after the Pod lands or that the Pod's damage overrides invincibility.
Suggest testing with Supply Pods and the Twins during their healing phase, but note that it seems like a pain in the a**.

Explanation

I'm currently on Stage 5 of the Driller's Interrogator Mastery in Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor (The first one, at Hazard One in the Salt Pits), and the drop pod that deployed me hit the Dreadnaught Cocoon, destroying it. The Elites were also all released, but I don't know if I hit the cocoons for those or not - it was somewhat of a mess. The Dreadnaught (Twins) died about thirty seconds later, because, well, Haz One with Driller, I have a lot of upgrades right now, but their empty healthbars are still at the top of the screen, and the music's still playing - the shooty twin died off-screen, along with at least one of the Elites, hooray for fire DoTs, don't know if that's relevant. It also still says 'Draw out the Elite' rather than 'Kill the Dreadnaught'.

I think killing the Cocoon automatically made the stage progress to the end, because the Supply Pod also dropped immediately after the Cocoon popped. I'm still here, though, after having done the supply pods. I've checked the whole map, there's no Elites left, and I've been wandering about for a few minutes now, waiting to see if anything would happen - so far, nothing. Everything else is still functional - enemies spawn, I kill them, I level up - but no win condition. I'll take some screenshots and wait for you to get back to me. There's nowhere to put them in here, alas.
