Electrical boxes in the floating cities don't work ?

[Pesky]

Has anyone tried turning off the power in one of the floating cities ? The sign tells me to press 'E' like it always does. But when I do that nothing happens. Is it just my problem or are other people having it ?

Sample box: the smallest of the floating cities ships. On the floor just behind the bridge, just below the green upper deck. In an area with a broken floor.

At least one other person has reported that, but nobody's been able to duplicate it reliably. It never happened during the playtesting and it's not happening for most people.

My best suggestion is to save your game, load a save from before you bought the ship, buy a new copy of the ship, and see if you have the problem a second time?

same issue in the first of the 3 ships. there is only one box, i could right click to detach it from the wall. it fell down, but the electricity effect stayed. explosives to the rescue.

First of the three ships there's one on the top floor near the back.
Switching it off worked for me.
Unfortunately since then I've had multiple UE4 crashes so haven't been able to do any more of that ship (or even drive to it)

Same issue here, same box as OP.

Dynamite to the rescue.

Yup, pressing E did nothing, but got the prompt to knock it off the wall, which did indeed knock it off the wall, but didn't turn off the power.. Near the top and front of the first new ship.

Same problem here

Okay, so the devs need to learn something. Have one person who has this bug and one person who doesn't. Have them swap saved games. Does the bug follow the saved game around or does it stay with the computer ?

Three more possibilities: now neither game is bugged; now both games are bugged, or that the results are not consistent.

Do you have all the DLC, more to the point

[Pesky]

I started this thread and I have all the DLC.

i have/had the same issue with the first ship of the new dlc. only have the option to destroy it. pressing e doesnt do anything. worked around by using explosives. i got all the dlc.

[schlockie]

same problem here. Killed it with dynamite :)

Wife has been working on the first ship since yesterday with no issues, All DLC owned, all the ships and subs prior to the new DLC completed also.

FWIW, part of the issue is that it's not replicable for any of the playtesters or devs. If you can get it to happen consistently, consider joining the Discord and providing your save there? It would be a genuine help and it's easier to troubleshoot and share files via Discord than via Steam Discussion.

On the first ship, in front, almost above the captain's cabin, the electric switch does not turn off. Because of this, I have stopped, for now, dismantling the ship, because there is no point
