Mission problem on Mississippi map.

[Mondyrocks]

The mission "Short circuited" is not working.
You have to check the trailer for clues, the flowers are highlighted in yellow, you press "0" (in my case) and then nothing happens.
No other items are highlighted.

Has this happened to anyone else?

You need to look at the item in your codex the.....spin it around to the other side to read a map. Youre welcome.

This actually got me for a minute too. Once you've checked the flowers and found the note on the back of the receipt, the lady says something along the lines of "try retracing your steps" and the mission just says "look for evidence" or something like that, with the flowers highlighted in yellow but you can't click on them again. Just walk away from the area and go back to hunting, eventually it occurs to the mission lady that the date might be the code for the locked door from earlier.

This is a different mission, I already worked out how to spin items in the codex.
Later on you find a stone with a key in the back and have to rotate that as well :)

I check the flowers and she says something like
"Looks like he left in a hurry, look around his trailer for clues"

Then nothing, I went and had a look around, out side etc.
Went back to the trailer and the flowers had the yellow outline again but couldn't be interacted with again, just like you said.
I'll just carry on until she yells again then, lol :)

Thanks for your input guys :)

Thanks for your input guys anyway :)

yeah, that's exactly the part I was talking about. Assuming you already spun the flowers around and found the date written on the back of the receipt, just leave and go hunt elsewhere for a bit. I'm not sure if it's triggered by time passing, killing and harvesting an animal, or distance away from the trailer, but eventually the lady tells you to try the date as code for the locked door

If you didnt actually spin the flowers around and see the date, you can pull them back up to be re-examined by going to the ESC menu -> codex -> mission items

I'll load up and give it a try.
I've had to spin a couple of items around but never did it with the flowers, simply cos she said to look for clues "plural" in the trailer, I just assumed there was more to find "sigh"

Silly me eh, lol :p

Don't feel bad dude, like I said, I got stuck there for a bit too, it isn't very clear what you're supposed to do. Hell, the only reason I tried spinning the flowers around was because of the map on the back of the note in the cabin in the earlier mission, and even afterwards, the fact that the flowers were still highlighted but I couldnt interact with them and nothing else was popping out at me to look at threw me for a bit. It wasn't until I gave up on it and went back to hunting that the mission decided to proceed on its own
