This was a few days ago so my memory will be fuzzy. I was sneaking into the control room of the Gale Reactor, having ran through the Order side of the fighting. I can’t remember if I was sneaking then got caught or I was blowing through, but basically I was fighting a Chieftan plus some grunts, no big deal. I like to use mobility, so I had the gravity cube plus jump pack. After landing on the ground floor, I heard a strange yet familiar noise. The goons with guns had been chasing me all over the place but now they were shooting at a black figure when I realized was the Reaper to which I said aloud “the fuk are you doing here?!”

In hindsight, could have banished them with my laser pistol, but I was so surprised my instinct was to get out of there so I did while the goons and Reaper went at it. Needless to say the Realer was killing them. I don’t know what became of it beyond that

So how did this happen? Beyond the weather event, I am completely unaware of any time the Reaper shows up outside of Security. Is it a scripted event I stumbled on? I also did not have the reaper weather going on

I have noticed that as we get later into the game, there are only two places with respawning cement bags, Dunkeltaler and>!Shadowgate.!<having a lack of cement before these two points kinda puts a damper on progress when it comes to making items like>!Lodestones.!<Plus side to adding a cement mixer is we can also use it for creating base decor like statues

After the trouble she gave me trying to contain her last playthrough, I am so glad I caught a lucky break this time. Finally, my little lab rat will have a roommate.

I’m on PlayStation and was wondering if there was any way to glitch out of bounds for the furniture store rooftop since I want to just have a rainy place to sit and chill.

I'm someone who is a bit of a completionist. I learned that the Lab Mask has 9 color variations only once I reached the end of my playthrough. I was able to go back and find 7 of the 9 colors using the info on the wiki page. However I couldn't find the yellow or the pink mask in Dusk Reactor offices. I had previously looted everything there and must have scrapped the mask from the table and the one in the bathroom.

I didn't realize at the time these were unique items with no other source. There was no warning confirmation prompt about uniqueness when I went to salvage them from what I recall.

Is there any way I can still obtain these two items on my save? I tried using the item spawner mod to create them for me but unfortunately it only has functionality to spawn the clear Lab Mask and not any color variants. It's pretty much the only thing preventing me from having every item in the game at this stage.

I had to two peccary sows at my base and they have disappeared into thin air. The couldn't have walked off because I got barricades blocking the entrances into my base (built in the security office overlooking the entrance to manufacturing and only opened the front and locker room). I have no clue what happen to them or what could've happen as the only place I went to prior to their disappearance was Containment

I cannot for the life of me get the leyak to drop essence. I am stood near my x-ray tower, facing down, and it just despawns when it gets close to the tower. I have tried aggroing it and walking to the tower, despawns. I cant make the x-ray gun thing until I have 1 essence, but cant get the essence? What on earth is going on?

edit - got it to work by moving it to a different spot, hope this helps others who may be having the same issue

I will repeat myself here.

It's very annoying and it somehow kills an entire feature, that we players on PS5 can't name our workbenches!

At least give us a list of 40-50 fixed words, we can choose from. This way we could at least name the bench somehow to recognize our personal teleporters.

Just use names already in the game, like "Office sector", "Manufacturing west" etc.

Pretty please with sugar on top.

Edit:

I put a list together, of games on PS4/PS5 that shows, it's absolutely not on Sony! I'm sure I forgot about some examples.

So please stop defending the devs with this false narrative!
