Protected filter nose

[Odinsmana]

I have arrived at the part in Act 2 where you need to create a mutation that is immune to the yellow light, but once I do it nothing changes and I can`t advance. I have tried to reload my save and do the sequence a couple of times, but I always just end up trapped on the island with the objective just telling me to create the mutation. Does anyone know what I need to do? Is this a bug?

Inside the mutation tree you have to track a couple of ingredients. One is a Onkifurt egg interior (The monster which is nesting in this area). The other is 3 "dandelions" that are also there. When you have them don't eat any of the 4 ingredients. Go to the mutation tree (it is one of the tabs of the inventory) and inside there hover to the icon of the filtered trunk. You will get a prompt to mix the ingredients. With this you create a "protected" filtered trunk, and from now on you can mutate it at any given time from the mutation tree.

Protected mutations are not affected by the yellow light. So just go into the poisonous ditch and find the many switches on the floor that activate some rising stairs. You will not lose your mutation because of the yellow lights.

What if you cannot access the mutation tree? I'm at this part and it's grayed out for me, even restarting again after verifying game files.

You should enter Trebhum shrine there and in it there should be a Trebhum projection (hologram) which should unlock you the feature when you talk with it. If you already passed the Shrine and it didn't unlock, then it sounds broken indeed.

Also there is other problem - if you open your Mutation tree and you can't do anything by your mouse cursor, you need to actually interact with it by moving the yellow cursor in the middle of the screen by movement (WSAD) keys. As for some reason mouse cursor is broken there.

Whoa! The lack of mouse controls in the mutation tree is a bug. We're looking at it now.

Ah! Thanks! The thing I was missing was the buttons arounbd the Island. I didn`t realize they were buttons, so I never tried jumping on them. Thanks :)
