Potentially Unable To Solve Task[]
It looks like this may not be possible to complete if you resolve the Collective/Outcasts issue and setup your outpost. I've been to all the outcast camps I could find and there were no more datapads. Needs confirmation. Selfea (talk) 06:14, May 3, 2018 (UTC)
Can you provide more details on the conditions that you found this issue under Selfea?
1. How far into the mission have you progressed? Which objective do you appear to be stuck on? (I've listed the 4 objectives below)
Search For More Datapads On Outcast Member Being Held By Collective
Go To The Navpoint
Investigate The Bodies
Read The Datapad
2. Which missions have you completed on Kadara at this point? (There is a list of all missions on the Kadara page.) Maybe at this point might be better to say which ones you haven't completed. Smaller list. :)
3. Did you side with the Outcasts (Sloane Kelly) or with the Collective (Reyes Vidal)?
If you are stuck on the first objective, collection missions in ME:A may require you to visit a place multiple times before the randomly generated datapad (bug, explosive container, etc) will spawn. You may need to leave the planet and come back to get a location to respawn enemies and a datapad. This is one of the REALLY annoying parts of the collection missions. You have to go all over the place multiple times to find these things.
You may have missed a viable location with the datapad. Try the map at Game Maps for a super detailed map on all of the locations of Kadara. (I've broken the link on purpose with an extra space.)

The remaining objectives are at fixed locations so those are always there and don't change. Ryder won't be able to interact with the sites though until the correct objective is completed. Going to a fixed site early could potentially cause issues though.
I don't deny that you've found an issue. It's just not one I've heard of before (or seen online). Most people have issues with getting the final datapad to be "interactable". This task is just buggy as all get out. :) --GS877 (talk) 16:49, May 3, 2018 (UTC)
