Achievements not unlocking after story completed?
I am trying to wrap up achievements but there are some that should unlock and I am having no luck. I checked the difficulty settings and everything is default and nothing is voiding achievements.

I tried these and they don't unlock:

- charge the battery from under 50% to full with natural sources
- repair the same item 6x times (I damaged it on purpose and repaired it 6 times, didn't unlock)
- replace all parts on the car: I have already all expansion slots + I have armored panels and doors + I replaced the engine....didn't unlock

I checked guides and whatever guide I read, it seems I am doing what is required but nothing unlocks?

Just checking here:

- How do you charge the battery? Did you have any quirks that contribute to battery charging?
- Did you damage the part on a run and repair it on a run? Was the break/repair process done on multiple runs?
- Did you also replace the cosmetic parts on the car?

AFAICT this is repair a status, such as fix a flat six times on the same tire, not just straight damage.

- replace all parts on the car: I have already all expansion slots + I have armored panels and doors + I replaced the engine....didn't unlock

Two different ones, but only trigger when out in a zone, not the garage. Try pulling off a car part and a rack part then reinstalling them to get each of them to pop.

I just recharged the battery with the wind turbine (took so long my god). Good that one junction had gusts so it made it a bit easier. Still didn't unlock. I charged from 46 to 100. It could be that at some point I got shocked by a shocking tourist, but I didn't have the lightning rod mounted, so in theory it was 100% recharged through the wind.

In the same run I had no doors and no panels...I did three junctions (not sure if it counts), one of which was the middle of the highway though...I thought for another achievement (one of the "junctions" achievements) the middle of the highway counted as a junction, so for this "no door no panels" run I did one stop on the highway + 2 junctions + exit through portal....didn't unlock the achievement.

So this would be the 4th achievement not unlocking that I think should have unlocked.

Replace all parts on the car: does it have to be in a run and not in the garage? My car has now all custom parts...the battery cannot be replaced as far as I know. Tyres, lights, panels and doors etc, all changed (through the various runs).

Repair same damage 6 times: yes I am aware it has to be an effect (crack, flat, electrified, loose etc) so for that purpose (just to be sure) I used the scrapper on one of my mounted doors till it needed a sealing kit....and I repaired it. I used 6 sealing kits on the same damaged door, and didn't unlock.

Cosmetic: yes I used them, and back then the "cosmetic" achievement unlocked properly...

I don't understand, I think it's a bug. I will try to revert to default all difficulty settings (they are already, apart from the FOV) and try again...maybe something is glitching.

Ok it is definitely glitchy....I brought the car out on my "story complete" save, with a steel door on it...I scrapped it 6 times till the "sealing kit repair" effect came up. I used 6 sealing kits on it: nothing.

I loaded my last save BEFORE story complete and did the same in the garage: after 5 kits, the achievement unlocked (I guess that steel door was already repaired at least once in that save).

Something is not right...

Can it be related to the fact that I once accidentally removed player damage (was definitely not on purpose)? Then re-activated right after. Is that change permanent on that save data? How do you even check all save datas now to check which ones are affected ??? I did so much progress on one (all the blueprints) and that one might be locked out of achievements....disaster....I thought (as it would be usual in other games) achievements would be disabled as long as such difficulty settings stays enabled...not for the WHOLE savegame !

p.s. I need to know that because I just tried that same setting on my "good" save where the 6x repairs achievement finally unlocked...was right before the story finished, but if that save game is also voided now (because of that setting which I enabled to check and test), then I am kind of screwed because all other saves are pretty far towards the beginning and unlocking blueprints on those will be a torture (basically playing the game completely again)

This is a screen of my saves. Any way to know which saves have no available achievements now? I only remember finding that "no player damage" active once, completely randomly, because I remember deactivating once the quirks setting (which by the way were also glitchy, since for like 15 hours the diagnostics computer was having "no quirks" in blue, while the quirk detective had 4 unknown slots...was pretty confusing)

And this didn't unlock for me the "fully outfitted" achievement....and is my latest useful save (in which I tried the "no player damage" setting just for a test, but the save that let me unlock the 6x repair achievement)...so now also this save is screwed? Is there a way to have my proper save enabled for achievements??? I played the last almost 10 hours for nothing....and the worst thing is I cannot know which save has achievement void status and which not...

Fot the "With the top down" it needs to be full junctions, the between sections for highways dont count, also you cant have any bumpers on, that includes utility ones like the LIM shield

That is in the garage. Try taking that car out into the zone, pull one of the rack part off, then put it back on. Like the "Car of Theseus" achievement the game only seems to check out in the zones, not in the garage.

Ok I'll try in the zone with and also with an older save but still, the save would be so old that I'll need to replay a lot (especially the grinding for the blueprints)...pretty demotivating but I will check. I need a confirmation for the developer to know if that difficulty setting (no player disables achievement forever fr that point in time or only when the setting is actually active (which is not, it was active maybe for 2 seconds)
