Peeping no longer working?

[Kurtino]

When I press X to peep it no longer highlights creatures, adds their card, tell me what they are. All I can do is place markers.

It worked for me yesterday evening (on a new save)... I assume you continue a pre 1.0 save?

I just started playing the game, but did you not forget to press LMB by any chance? I didnt know what peeping is cuz when i pressed X it felt like binoculars but when i saw a bug i pressed X and then i had to aim at the animal and press LMB. Then the bug was added to data.

Fun story after doing so i was about to press button for data and a spider attacked me from behind. Did my best to run away, but that hit i got from behind did too much damage so poison killed me. My heart was beating so fast lmao

like Plake said, are you on an older save file where you might've already peeped the bugs you're looking at?

[Kozzy]

It works, I just played 2 hours and did it abotu 13 times. But as someone above said, I started a new game.

Always start a new game after early access ends for games and 1.0 hits.

Working fine for me, the only time it only places a marker when I do it is because I 'missed' the creature.
I also did start a new game with the release.

I think I'm a little unsure how it's supposed to work. I'm on a new save, haven't got any pre-release data.

Yesterday when I was peeping I thought it showed me the name of any creature I was looking at that I already scanned. So the ????? became it's name. Now when I peep it doesn't show me anything unless it's a completely fresh scan. Maybe I'm just misremembering though? I really liked being able to use the Peep to see the name of something quickly.

[Plake]

No, how it works:
When you start peeping it will mark any not-yet-peeped bug with ???, when you then peep it you see the name for a few seconds. From then on peeping that bug kind won't show anything anymore.

[Jaggid Edje]

You press the Peep key, to activate Peep mode. Then you point the view at a critter that you have NOT peeped already, and then press the LMB. If you do not have it aimed at a critter which you have not already peeped, then it will instead place a waypoint.

You can tell if something is a critter that has NOT been peeped because it will show ???? when you pass the view center over it when in Peep mode.

It only shows the name in place of the ???? when you first peep a critter (like, right after you peep it before you leave the peep mode), at least for me. That's how it worked before the final release too.

when you have peeped a creature the first time it creates a creature card that i think is under the data tab this shows you how tough the enemy is, how many you have killed, and what its weaknesses and what its resistance to, after killing so many the card goes gold, and i think you have to get all the cards to gold to unlock an achievement, i think its a random amount you have to kill and it will turn to gold so if your lucky you might only have to kill 1, and if your unlucky you may have to kill 100
