Rope and fire bugged?

[;qrius]

Hey, I just bought the game and finished the tutorial. My first mission after the tutorial was to find a ship, extinguish the fire and rescue 5 people.

The first thing was that I could not extinguish the fire completely so I tried to flip it with a rope using the rope anchors. After flipping it I can not remove the rope from the anchors. I tried to google the issue but could not find anything.

I only found that fire can be bugged sometimes and you would need better tools then the extinguisher for that.

Edit: just restarted the mission and when I tried to jump on the burning boat it flipped and I got shot into the air - am I just getting unlucky or are there still a lot of bugs in the game?

Edit: now that I got all the passengers on my boat I wanted to unload them. After trying to get back in my own ship it flipped and I am now stuck in it and can't get out of it.

I haven't really had an issue with flipping boats. The only time I really see that is if the boat is very small. Maybe you need a bigger boat?

Fires, are you using fire extinguishers? Putting out fires seems way easier with pumps and fluid hose. If you have the space put 2 or 3 or even 4 large pumps inline to increase the water flow.

Oh, and you can pick up people or ask them to follow you, just get close, highlight and read. You can individually pick them up and place them in a seat or bed too.

Scrolling your mouse wheel while holding any hose, cable or rope that's attached to an "anchor" point will cause it to immediately disconnect and return to your inventory.

I did not have the option to pick up the rope again - now that I loaded a new game I do have the option to. I guess I just got unlucky with all those bug in the first hour of playing.

ye, hat I knew. I just got frustrated with all the other bugs I got in the first hour of playing and was confused why the game has such a good rating. I hope I just got unlucky with all those bugs.
