Bug? Sensor array at depleted dig site

My game seems to be bugged at the depleted site. I get the generator online, direct power to the sensor array (blue markers on the cables show power to it) but the screen for the sensor array stays black, the holographic type button to turn the array on does not appear so I cannot progress.  I was stuck for ages until I checked youtube and saw that the arrays screen should show a button like the generator does.  I just kept rotating the switch that makes the array spin thinking 'wtf am I missing?'

Loaded a save point from before I arrived at the depleted site and progressed only to get stuck at the same point again.  Started a new game from scratch and the screen still not working.

Solved it my self, switched the Power Supply and reapplied it.  
May be it was, because i had not reported the sensor before reconnecting the power supply.

I was ready to start from scratch for a third time but it actually unbugged itself and the screen started working after several attempts at reloading my save slot.

I had problems here too with the mission bugging out on me.

I had markers to scan the radiation damper and the battery unit, then I was told to scan the generator, except I didn't get a marker for that. After a lot of toing and froing I scanned what I supposed to be the generator all over to no avail, until I finally scanned down the hole in the top. Then I was told to eject the fuel rod that was in it and then I had no idea what I was supposed to do, as the only mission markers I had still pointed at the damper and the battery, and the wrist display did not have it in the objectives list either. I tried pushing and pulling what ever I can but nothing budged. Then I ended up eventually dying several times trying to figure out what the heck I was supposed to be doing, when upon reviving for the 3rd time, I get told to replace the fuel rod with the spare. What spare I don't know, because as far as I was aware I hadn't even ejected the other one yet. I actually had something on that display screen on top- of the generator all during that time too but it was unusable and my hand passed right through it. All very confusing. Oh and I was being revived from the back of the Fury with my chest halfway out the top of the pod so that I had to reach under me to pull the release handle, and then after about the 3rd time I ended up stuck. 

After quitting out and reloading it sort of fixed the mission enough that I could get passed it. I still had no markers updating what I was supposed to be doing, but it finally gave me outlines so that I could cut open the generator and from there I was able to figure out the rest.

So yeah the missions and the signposting for them could be rather buggy and inconsistent at times throughout the game I thought. Sometimes you would get a mission marker that was visible from quite a distance away, then the next part of the mission might give you no marker at all or it might only become visible when you were right on top of it or very close. That inconsistency could make things a bit more confusing that they should have been. The sweet spots for the dialogue prompts at some markers could be very fiddly and frustrating to position yourself correctly for too.

Great game overall though.

Hey guys and gals, 

Here is a link to a Lone Echo save file that will put you at a point after completing the Depleted Dig Site:
https://readyatdawn.sharefile.com/d-se15adfc3fac4af5a ;

Please copy and paste your old save file
(kronos_ii_repairs_complete.radsave) into a separate folder in the unlikely
event the file provided does not work.



Here’s a rundown on how to apply the new save file: 



  • Navigate to the game’s save directory in the Oculus
    folder
  • Default
    is C:\Program
    Files\Oculus\Software\Software\ready-at-dawn-lone-echo\_local\saves\slot0
  • Paste
    the new save file into this directory
  • Play
    game and have funs


This should be all you need to do in order to get past the
Depleted Dig Site issue you are seeing.

Let us know if this works for you.

Thanks for playing!

6 years later and this bug still exists.... The game is still being sold on the store FFS! They should've fixed it, or ceased selling a known faulty product.
