Trapped in Rainbow Town Arena?

[BeanyBlini]

Either the arena is bugged or the key is very well hidden.

This arena is in the Rainbow Town area of the map. From the teacup filled with lava, look across the "valley" and you will see a door. The red jump pad on the white cliff shoots you straight at it. The door is opened with the translocator ball. I went through the door. There is a deep hole. I jumped down the deep hole and landed in an arena filled with shielded mobs. There are two transmitters in the room that need to be turned off in order to kill the mobs. There is a blue door with a gray or black lock on it.

I killed all the mobs but there is no key for the lock. The only other way out of the arena appears to be back up the hole I fell down but it's much too deep for me to get out that way. I'm not sure if bugged or I'm just missing something.

Need help, please!

Are you on the test branch or the very latest build?

When you defeat all the "monsters" there should be a very brief cut-scene and a key is dropped to unlock the nearby door which contains the exit

Also experiencing this, cleared the place out, nothing happens. Fully up to date

Hi,

To help find why this is not working as intended could you answer a couple of questions.

Was there anything weird that happened during this area that made you think something wrong had happened ? (minus the no key)
Did you die in the area at all ?
Have you quit and loaded after starting this area before you managed to kill all the enemies?

Do quitting and loading your save fix the issue ?

If you remember, did you happen to kill the enemies on the platforms before killing the enemies on the ground? I know killing all the enemies on the ground releases a ramp so that you can reach the higher enemies easier, but it seemed relatively simple to just teleport up there. Maybe by triggering the ramp and the key cutscene at the same time, there was some conflict in the code? Just spitballing.

Nope wouldn't matter, the key falling is triggered on the entire area being cleaned of enemies, and the ramp is on a portion of the enemies, they don't conflict in code at all.
Thanks for the idea though, if you have any more I can use them to check.

The key isn't spawning for me either. I somehow died near the end of the battle when I had about six of those enemies on the highest outside platforms still left. When I respawned back up the top, I jumped back down the hole and killed them, but no key anywhere to open the door. If I quit and reload my save, I spawn back up the top of the area(so I'm not stuck), and reloading didn't make the key appear either.

Edit: I also didn't have a cutscene play after killing the last few enemies.

I'm stuck here too now. Died the first time after killing all the enemies on the bottom, then the next time only the ones on the top spawned. After killing them, no key.

Reloaded checkpoint. This time only the enemies on the bottom spawned. Killed them, again no key.

Update: So I went to the save game folder in Explorer and reverted to the save just before the buggy area. This time completed it in one go. Cut scene playe and key dropped as expected.

So seems maybe the bug is related to dyeing somehow?

Hello, sorry it took me so long to respond. I did die in the room 2 times because it took me a bit to figure out what I was supposed to do. On the 3rd try, I cleared the room. After clearing the room, the music returned to normal but there was still a haze over the room.

Two other weird things I noticed during the fight and afterward:

1. The transmitter animations didn't change when I interacted with the switches. They were always "on" and "transmitting" pink waves regardless of whether the switches were activated or not.

2. The floor bubbles and wobbles in the corners when I move around. Trippy!

I was able to reload from a previous checkpoint which put me out near the door to the area, so I was able to leave and continue playing. I haven't gone back but maybe I will try that now.

EDIT: Also, the ramp never dropped for me. It was still straight up in the air after the battle.

[Perstranger]

Same for me, ramp never dropped, never got an animation after killing all enemies.

Resting to checkpoint and going back down doesn't help.

I personally died in the middle of my first attempt when one of the upper trolls jumped down before I finished clearing the ground level. following attempts got a little wierd: sometimes only ground level enemies would respawn, sometimes only upper enemies, sometimes both but staggered. No amount of reverting to checkpoint or save&quitting has fixed it.

[GAMING_Alligator]

I eventually got this to work by going to C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Local\SupralandSIU\Saved\SaveGames and manually reverting to an earlier save before the new area. It seems you have to do it on your first try without dying for it to work.

[Chisen Drakorus]

Well i guess im SOL then, cuz i went on to collect a bunch of other stuff since so im not about to revert.

[TinyRick]

I have the same issue, I died on the first attempt and now it doesnt seem to drop the key for me, no cut scene at all. Will this bug be fixed or should I try to restore the data?

Thanks for everyones help on this matter.
This should be fixed in the next update. If it's not please get our attention again.
