Obsidian Spire Breaking Orbs Not Moving Doors
Hey everyone!

Has anyone else had the experience while in the Obsidian Spire that attacking and breaking the orbs will not move doors? I've made a new character and cheated my way into it and it seems to work fine. Has anyone else had this problem?

I also encountered a major bug where Barrington did not drop his key on death so i had to kill myself to get out of the room.

this came up on the discord as well, I tried but wasn't able to reproduce it on a fresh game so I can only assume it stems from the recent update.

Sadly there was an issue with a patch which caused some maps to be 'reset' as if the player hadn't visited them. This caused a few issues in a few places. Its not something that can be patched to fix, as the change has already happened on the level and been saved.

It shouldn't affect any new games, but I realise that doesn't help people who are stuck in the tower currently.

the only real suggestion I have is to use cheats to get past the sections you are stuck in, you can enable noclip via the console (` key, or the key to the left of 1) with:

toggle e_cheats toggle cht_noclip

if you want to disable both, you can do them again in the opposite order. This should let you get through to the next section.

Using cheats won't affect your game in any serious way, it doesn't stop achievements from triggering. You will get some text saying 'cheated!' in the top right corner, but this is just a cosmetic thing and you can disable it if you want by using the command
cs_show_cheats 0

This underlying issue of maps being reset should now have been fixed, and that update is live, I'm really sorry you encountered this issue, its not a good experience and the issue that caused it shouldn't have made its way onto the live branch.

We have in our multiplayer world the same problem. Would be sad if our 20+ hour game is now lost because of this bug.

I would also appreciate any help :)

+1 we're also stuck on the first floor of Obsidian Spire in a multiplayer game. No matter what we do the map doesn't change.

This might be one of many things that got broken by the recent update.

Can we get some traction on this issue? My multiplayer game progress is stuck currently unable to continue with my friends at Obsidian Spire level 1 as the wall that's supposed to move on orb break isn't moving. Would appreciate to see some mods or dev response on this issue as it is literally game breaking and we cannot play it any further.
