Some quests bugged/incomplete?

[Skinner]

So I'm glad that not all quests are fetch quests, but I'm a bit confused on 2 that I found:
- Safety First (check telephone booths)
- Making a buck (sabotage air conditioners)

I tried interacting with the telephone booths & the air conditioners I have found in all manner of ways and nothing seems to be working. I tried interacting, throwing stuff at them, shooting them, punching them etc. The descriptions are also very vague. Has anyone completed any of these or have any tips? Or are they bugged/not implemented yet?

but my problem is the quest island communication is a tear 2 quest from general trader in my case it was from z3 traider check satelites which are on the roof of the bank in z3 outpost which you cant reach and you have to look for the generator in b2 airfield i searched through the hole area which is marked on the map every hangar every building and there is no generator to check on or to interact with

You can reach the top of the bank by jumping over to the ledge from the building next door also the generator is next to the garages at the airfield by the tower that has the spinning dish on top just have to interact with legs of it

Two phone booths in Z2 town lit up side by side but could only interact with one of them.

I also had this quest, and the generator is in the middle of the airfield, between the taxiway and the runway, almost at the center of the designed area, but not too easy to go with the sentries.

The fountains you have to look for are the big one, like thoses in the small castle or in the hospital.

Ran in to the Sabotage AC bug. Any fix/workaround for this one? Based on what I've searched, the AC units should be glowing with a faint blue color. I've attached a screenshot of what shows on my game. (SP)

Hi L3GION!
Unfortunately, all the interaction quests are broken in SP at the moment.
Sorry for the inconvenience, we are working on resolving this issue.

even the trader discounts are bugged. ive been doing t2 quest for c2 b4 and z3 traders but when i interact with the traders i dont have that red tag sale to click on the trader when buying items except my z3 trader. my base is in c3 and i have to drive to z3 just to sell stuff and buy discounted items. My C2 and B4 traders are bugged and ive done more quest for them than Z3.

Hi SolidSnake,

Actually, all of the quests are working in multiplayer, at least over the last two weeks. The issue is that a fountain may, uhm, not be what you think it is (hint: they are quite large, usually circular, and are not usually a source for drinking water). There are quite a number of them around the map, you just have to find them.

I have completed all of the multiplayer quests except for two and only had one relatively minor issue (which did not affect completing the quest, and for which I already made a bug report).

Trader discounts in multiplayer are working as well.

The Devs have stated that they are working on the single player issues in other replies as well and hopefully they will release a fix soon.

Unfortunately, interaction quests are not working in SP game mode, we are working on resolving the issue.

On the latest Update it read that the Single player quest bugs had been fixed. The link listed to talk about it goes straight to the Main Scum community page https://steamcommunity.com/app/513710/allnews/

Any word on this?

Hi toddinno,

The exact wording in the 3 March 2025 update is:

"You can already take on missions in single-player! Check out this post for all the details on how to access them: https://steamcommunity.com/app/513710/allnews/"

Indeed, the link included simply brings you back to the News page.

Although multiplayer quests are working exceptionally well, the mission based quests (interactive quests) in single player are still bugged, for example, you can not use F to select the quest target. I pulled up my old single player character and gave the "Safety First" mission a try and here is what happened:

I am not sure why the text above was included in the update. It should have noted that there are still a few bugs to iron out in single-player quests.

Hello everyone!
In SP mode, I accidentally found air conditioners during night, there were hanging in the air and glowing with blue. Interesting thing air conditioners hanging at about 50meters from ground in the middle of the map (near stone crashing factory), it seems items offset from the dedicated location. Just for fun I started to build a tower from wood and its height now about 25meters and roughly I'm on the half way to reach air conditioner blocks :)
If you go through the island during night you might see the glowing blocks in the air spread across the island.
