Freakin' broken buttons!
Seriously, is anyone else having like half of their "clear" missions fail because buttons and switches sometimes don't work and are apparently required to spawn a horde? And if the horde can't spawn, you can't kill them and thus complete the mission.

No, but I am quite often missing the last zombie, or maybe this is the problem, but I can run up to the yellow marker and there is nothing around at all.

I have weapons randomly unload themselves when I apply a mod to a DIFFERENT weapon.

Yes, this happened to me on tasks of levels 4 and 5. Sometimes zombies also behave strangely, like you are beating them, and instead of standing still from the blow or stepping back a little, they just run at you sharply, and instead of running to the player through the bridge, they break the building from below

haven't had that problem yet however, I bought a puffer coat at a trader and was instantly teleported to the snow. 1.5 k away

I am getting frequent issues with rallypoints.

I activate them, and the rally disappears, but does not start the quest.

Ironically it says "reach waypoint", which is checked. But "activate waypoint" is X 'd out, there is no rally point left to activate though.

Had about 10 missions like that so far. There is nothing to pinpoint, no specific trader location, time of day, or specific POI, no apparent cause.

When removing a mod from weapons it empties the mag/chamber, it has always been like that since mods were added for weapons.

Yes mate, have had this issue with Butcher Petes POI and Popin pills factory so far, so i ignore clear quests for those.

I had such problem when I generated a new world and there were some weird terrrains, so I have seen some houses sliced by half and I couldn't use any keys, or buttons in them

Hi there, folks! Me and my teammate have encountered the same issue at Butcher Pete's POI. The switch that was tied to zombie spawn trigger and two garage doors was not interactable even if we didn't touch it during pre-clear stage. So we just break it (5000 durability) and finished the quest. The thing is, game checks for the state of the switch which is normally changed by interaction <E> with it. When it stucks we still are able to change its state (destroy).

tl;dr

>>break the button/switch and it will work<<

Dude you're a life saver, thank you very much.

Quick and easy answer to your question is in my 1200 hrs I have never had a button not work and only once that I can think of off the top of my head was I unable to finish a quest because I couldnt find the last zombie.

And you got the "break the switch" solution so hopefully youre good to go 👍🏻
