Syntax error unexplained alarm?
Just had a solo stealth run of syntax error end abruptly when the alarm was raised... For literally no reason.

The game just said "the alarm was raised" and it went loud out of nowhere.

I was going through the heist maskless and it even forced me to mask up immediately.

For context, I had detonated a camera to get it out of the way. A guard noticed and the "searching phase" started. I figured it would be worth it if this one annoying camera was permanently gone.

Everything was going well, and then the alarm went off. No detection. Not even any bodies or bags existed on the map to be detected. No cameras, just a stealth run ruined for no reason.

Is this a bug or is something I'm not aware of happening?

I've heard during one of their streams that it is a bug. During the search apparently one of the guards will run into a break a window if they're in search phase, causing the alarm to go off.

considering the windows in control room aren't even windows that is possible

That's actually pretty funny

when you are in "Searching" mode, the facilities AI Core will automaticly trigger an alarm if 2 server rooms go red

if you remove 2 servers from a server room it goes red and the AI says something like "Malfunction in server room X", "or server room X offline"
for some reason if this happens twice and "Searching" is triggered, it always ends stealth, without the game explaining at all why this happened

you cant complete this map with 100% loot in stealth once "Searching" is triggered
as soon as there is "Searching" the 100% stealth run is over

you can technically still complete stealth without the bonus servers once the guards are "Searching", by only taking a single server from each room, and hoping its the correct one

During one of my runs a civ felt through the floor and cam detected it. This map is bugged as hell.

This happened to me once as well. Civ fell in the small corridor between Server Room A and B, thankfully seems to be a pretty rare bug as I've only seen it happen once in ~25 stealth runs

Good to know, but I hadn't even bagged a single server when the alarm went off.

Mine felt to the A Server Room so it is probably the same bug. I had it once too. I have screenshot on my profile.
