Can't get into STC Malachite

[Candy_Bar]

As title, can't get inside STC Malachite because main door leading into facility says it's unavailable to interact (Without yellow padlock) and have to use console commands, kinda lame as it blocks out main quest

You can get a key card by doing the side quest in the central elevator area.

Can you specify where this location exactly is?

Ok checked some gameplay and there is a soldier that should be guarding the door but, for me there is no one

Having the same issue. In the room with the Guide (fast travel guy) there is suppose to be a guard that you can talk to. Presumably showing him the pass will make him unlock the door. But the guard is not there even though I have a main quest leading me inside to talk to some professor.

Yeah I just went and explored the map and got myself some gear, now I am just waiting for the patch hopefully it will fix this issue as it literally blocks you out of progression

I submmited a bug report on Stalker2 website. Hopefully they'll fix it asap.
In the meantime a workaround...
Download "UETools - Developer Console . Debugging" from Nexus - this will enable console.
Use command "uetools_ghost" to walk trough the locked doors and "uetools_walk" to disable it. Same when going going outside.

Warning: I would not be surprised if interacting with NPCs inside the base and continuing the story without going trough the right step of getting access to the base broke something else down the line, so use at your own discretion.

Yeah I did it myself but I was afraid that it can break even more so I just loaded a save before I used console, just have to wait for the patch hoping it won't ruin 10h of progress

[Jahtzee]

Any news on a fix or workaround yet?

Have the same issue, I tried spawning in the pass via console commands, but since the soldier you're supposed to talk to isn't spawning, I doubt it'd be much use.

I've also submitted a bug report. Hopefully this will be included in the first patch.

Subscribing to this thread hoping someone finds a fix. The guard will not spawn for me either so I cannot enter the base.

You can use console commands but since so many quests are bugged it's just a guess if it will not break more, I am waiting for a fix

> A Minor Incident Mission: Fixed progression blockers, including issues with Bayun’s collar and locked doors.

Yeah, that didn't work. Still stuck with the exact same issue...

Edit: I tried, reloading, restarting. Even going back to an old save file and playing through the entire Duga assault mission again. The soldier next to the door is still not spawning and the base remains locked. Severely disappointed, to say the least.

Now Richter is killed off in this quest after I consoled thru myself into STC and turning the mirror on, I am done with this game

Just got some new update. Dont know what it is, there was no patchnote or smth.
Hope It'll help

Although it explicitly says "Fixed the issue when Richter could be found dead during the “A Minor Incident” mission, blocking further progression." Richter, is still in fact, a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ corpse on the ground for me.

Maybe in your save he was already dead...
