Stuck at "Ignition Sequence Initiated. Please Stand By" at Primary Engine (chapter 3)
Nothing happens. The engine keeps spinning and the computer tells me to stand by. What am I supposed to do?

is the centrifuge activated or no? are you using statis to connect both the engine

No, I already did that. Now I am in a room where I have to activate a computer manually.
So the engines are both refueled. You've come into the engine room. You probably had to fight off a couple slashers and babies in order to make it to the back of the room and begin the warm-up sequence, after which you once again had to survive several waves of enemies. Now that's done.

This is the part you're stuck on, yeah? There should be one more computer you have to interact with. Not the same one at the back of the room, but one closer to the entrance. You'll have to walk up a ramp to get to it.

Mmh I'll check thanks. This is what I did:

- enter room
- attach energy cube
- get swarmed by monsters
- die
- respawn in the room
- go to the computer (the game sends me here)
- get stuck because the computer tells me to stand by and does nothing

Chapter 3 is known to have a lot of bugs and the only way of fixing this issue is by reloading an earlier save and if that persists then RIP, you'll need to start a new save.

Yup I noticed, just uninstalled the game and started another one. Thanks for the support

I've had the same thing. There is supposed to be an arena sequence (bunch of enemies popping out), but it seems it sometimes fails to trigger. Fixed by reloading and trying again.
