Mission 11: Neverending stress buildup
Help, is this a bug or did i miss something, why is there a constant stress buildup even when nothing is happening or after a rest?

There is a Marine Flaw named Gloomy that causes that. Does one of your chosen guys have that Flaw ? Haven't made it to the mission yet could be something else.

It seems like gloomy but none of my soldiers have that trait. Its really weird. It started in the middle of the mission, after I redeployed.

I encontered something similar in the Atmosphere Processor after killing the queen.
My marines kept accumulating stress even after the hunt ended.
One of my soldiers had the "gloomy" trait but since I knew about that, I made him down a chill-pill to get him below the first stress threshold.
But the stress kept getting up anyway until I exfilled.

There is a stress buildup flaw that you can get on marines when over 100% stress during a mission that has a red icon that looks like a lightning bolt above their name. This causes all marines (even ones without this flaw) to steadily gain stress over time regardless of the situation. However I have had the issue you describe as well and had to reload an earlier save to fix. I've also had a bug where after reloading a save where the Sargent skill that pauses stress is active, the skill remained permenantly active and I had to reload a save before the mission to fix it.

Thanks for the answer, in the end I had to reload before the deployment and finished the game yesterday. I'm not sure what has caused aboved issue. Maybe it happened when the APC was shooting and killing a Xenomorph while the marines were leaving the APC.
