distress beacon frequency missing
so for some reason the distress beacon frequency is missing on my signalscope, n people say to restart your game a bunch of times n that never fixed the issue, anyone else know a fix for this? or honestly i might just end up looking up a walk through on how to find the escape pod 3 cuz i can not find it without the frequency unless i want to spend alot of deaths on it

Presuming you've gone back to pod 1 or 2 and prodded them with the signalscope first? They don't still show up as unknown signal?

Otherwise that is pretty strange..

Excellent! It can be easy to forget especially if you've done it on a previous playthrough!

Adds a bit of extra stress when doing a Beginner's Luck run too

yeaaa, ive heard from alot of people that this game kinda ends up needing a walkthrough at some point, n honestly im quite surprised at how far i got without needing a walkthrough, got it all other than the escape pod 3 n sun station n the other stuff on the ash twin n few other small things but got about 80/85% of it with a blind playthrough, hell i didnt even know what this game was about when i purchased it, just looked like a nice game n damn was i in for a treat

You're awesome for saying that! It's EXACTLY what this game is intended for!

Keep working hard for that blind playthrough. It's soooo worth the payoff.

I'll give you a hint I needed that smacked me with a spoiler: When you're getting...CARRIED AWAY...trying to solve a problem, remember: you have tools that will help you...STICK WITH IT. A very good tool to...see what lies beyond...

Come back here for more spoiler free hints and/or friend me and Nert.

Sure, have added

you can also write [ spoiler ] terrible things [ /spoiler ] if you'd rather ask in public but don't want anyone else spoiled

Wow, it's been a few days but I'm not seeing a friend request.

Listen: The ATP is probably gonna go down in history as the #1 Head Smacker of a puzzle.

Impossible...but when you see it....ohhhh...you'll want flesh to fall from the bone.

Remember what I said: STICK with it.

I already ruined that experience for myself by trying to look up a spoiler-free hint but instead got whacked in the nuts with a blurted-out answer.

I hate myself now and wish I could induce amnesia.

i already beat the game n got most of the achievements the same day ^^ just need to beat the game in one loop which is what ill do in vr, the only time i really needed a hint on the internet was for the towers on the hour glass planets, which it just reminded me of a previous hint in the game, n the same with the artifact tower on the quantom moon

n ye when nert had added me i had pretty much already beaten the game x3 just needed help with the buggy teleporter in the core
