Breaching the Shroud bug

[Sumowning]

There seems to be an issue where upon completing the "Breaching the Shroud" Event doesn't establish communications with the Shroud.

This basically means you'll get stuck unable to contact the shroud as the 'Shroud_Intro' never gets triggered.

Just felt like reporting the issue to get looked at.

To counteract this bug:

**
Go to console command and enter: event utopia.2655
**

This will trigger the "Breaching the Shroud" again as if you just got the ascension perk. Allowing you to research it once again and establish contact with the Shroud.

I've done this in my game, and worked just fine.

You arent supposed to contact the Shroud until you take Trancendence as you arent even psionic yet since you only unlocked your species LATENT psionic abilites with Mind Over Matter. Working as intended.

The "Breaching the Shroud" Event triggers upon taking the Trancendence perk. Which is available to you once you have the Mind over Matter perk.

The bug happens after you complete the "Breaching the Shroud" event, but there's no contact established with the Shroud. So NOT working as intended.

Which translates to that your country doesn't get flagged for having done 'Shroud_intro' as communications was never established.

There we go, edited it to make it clear for people.

Ah alright makes more sense, I just did a playthrough two days ago with no mods and my shroud worked perfectly fine, is there a reason for that? O.o

did you waited after completing breach shroud event?
Click on empire button first tab (flag icon on top left side of top game bar) your empire should have on list modificator shroud something (if i good remember) put your mouse curson on that modificator and in toolpit you will see timer. Every single contact with shroud is only possible once your empire gather enought psonic power to do so,thats why timer is implemented.

It was a single incident, but I figure if it happened I might as well report it that if others find themselves in this situation they know which command to use to bypass the problem.

It was a good 50 years since I had the event, I also debug tested and found out my country never got flagged as a shroud country or to have done the Shroud-intro flag. Which is triggered after you've done the "Breaching the Shroud"
