Soft-locked? Struggling with a side story

[BadassFreeman]

Hello! Recently decided to replay the game with all the DLCs that had since then released, and I'm currently stuck on a side story. I've looked online and I don't see other people struggling with it, so I'll put it on general discussions instead of technical issues - as the issue might just be me being one dense motherf#cker.

The side story in question is the Sweet Charity one, and I'm playing on the Ice DLC island with Red Ivan. I'm on the "Interrogate Charity Workers" part, and I've had those fellas come from a ship, problem is that I CAN'T capture them for interrogation. If I set them for capture (and send my henchmen or evil genius since my guards just won't bother in the casino), they wack the dudes one or twice and then... Nothing. The henchmen and the genius just stay there, looking at the guy, while the guy raises his arms and stands in place. If set to distract, nothing seems to happen. If I kill them instead, dude's gone. Each ship brings five if they're all dead and I need only two, but I just CAN'T capture them. Not even the social minions do the work, they won't bring them in.

I'm I doing something wrong? What I'm I supposed to do? I'm currently waiting for the third batch of them to arrive since I've been messing around on ways I could somehow fix it, like switching it to kill and back to capture as my guys swing against them but nothing worked so far. And in the videos of playthroughs I've seen online, this issue doesn't seem to happen. Kind of at a loss right now. Been on this save for like 25 hours and I ain't feeling keen on restarting.

A silly question, but have you definitely built a prison cell to hold them in, or are your cells already full?

[BadassFreeman]

I've got two prisons, one on level 1 (same as the casino) and one on level 3 (which has an entry-point some of the bosses seem to take priority on invading through). The lower one has six cells, all empty. The one at level 3 has twelve, most of them empty while I deal with interrogating Wrecking Bola's soldiers who just passed through a while ago. The base has a suplus in power (over 2.000) so that ain't the problem either.

Have you tried can you capture normal agents in the casino? Just to rule out a pathing issue.

[BadassFreeman]

When enemy agents came in through the casino there wasn't much of an issue. Atomic Olga always goes through it violently and people get there without problems. So far there's one of those caves that seems to connect all over the place on the casino (was there from the start, didn't really bother taking it down) and a normal corridor with guard posts and cameras. I'll try making an extra pathway there, might as well make sure it ain't that.

Alright well, building a small prison on that new corridor somehow worked? I don't understand it, and I still see Doomhilda and the Pyro staring awkwardly at two dudes tagged for capture without doing anything, but the social minions did drag the other three in. I still have ZERO CLUES about what actually caused this issue, and it still seems to work with some of the dudes tagged for capture.
