Ch. 6 Arms Race Confusion
I picked this game up after having this issue last time. My multi-tool sensors in Arms Race (Distillery) are both busted. I cannot figure out how to repair them and I don't see it in any walk throughs or forums. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?

See attached ss of multi tool sensor.

It's been awhile since I played through that bit but I suspect there's power you need to switch on somewhere.

This walkthough might help: https://www.ign.com/wikis/half-life-alyx/Chapter_6:_Arms_Race

Yeah I've looked through that and a couple others, but none seem to show that there is any damage to their sensors. They look completely normal.

Oh is that the one next to the resin machine just after the fight outside the distillery (with the big tower you can climb up?).

If so, check in the office that has the controls for the crane - there's a cupboard at the back with Xen snapping things in. I think IIRC that the power-on is around there. Either in there or to the left of the little window where you can see into the resin machine room (that you shoot the lock off the door through).

Did you follow the yellow cable on that and see where it goes? If i recall, there's a battery stand thing in the middle of the yard that requires a battery.

Ah yes that's the bunny. Yup that's it, you need to power that up then the junction points will open up and work. Just expect, as will probably be obvious, a fight when you plug it in.

You guys are awesome. I haven't played in so long. I couldn't get it right. That was it. Thanks, everyone. Just went through Ch. 7 - Jeff and I'm back to getting the proper crap scared out of me.

Aw, the Jeff chapter was my favorite. I don't usually do stealth/horror, but that segment was just so well designed. Let us know how it went!
