Bug Tracking - Reported by toddbryanton

I just played through the whole thing...incredible job! I have a question...is there an ending for the roof of Aneki tower? I'm not sure if I missed something. I fought my way to the roof and there was nothing there, and I couldn't figure out anything else to do.

A few small bugs I noticed (which you guys are probably aware of): if I kill the Golden Naga in the Volcano before I kill Drake, then the game becomes stuck indefinitely on "Neutral Turn." Once I killed Drake and then went back to the Golden Naga, I was able to collect the scales.

Is Akimi a playable character in the game? I got her phone number as a Mission Item, but she didn't show up as an option I could call from any phones.

Once again, I'm floored by the amazing work you guys have done on this. Thank you so much.

I found the final lab in the Aneki tower although I couldn't figure out how to beat the Matrix section there. I disabled the only switch I could access, but I'm not sure how to shut the others down and defeat the AI. Do I have to kill all of the Black IC first?

I found an interesting bug where, after trying to access one of the computer terminals in the south east corner of the room, I logged out and the screen went dark; I couldn't do anything. All my character information was changed with placeholder text like "A weak but brilliant decker. He probably should have drank more milk" and my name was changed to "MyNameIsATroll8800"...ha, wasn't expecting that one.

Is there a separate Leadership stat you can learn like in the original game? Or is Charisma the way it determines how long your hired runners stay for? I maxed out my Charisma at 9 but I still couldn't get any of my hired runners to stay with me past the first two floors of the Aneki tower.

When you unlock the four boxes in the final lab, is it supposed to get rid of the red bars blocking your path in the Matrix? All four boxes in the lab say they're unlocked. I've tried jacking in from all four computers in the room and have destroyed all the IC on the entire level. The only thing left is the floating AI baby head but I can't reach it because it's blocked by the red bars. There's also another switch I can't reach because it's blocked by red bars. Is there a different way to get rid of the bars? I've got myself into a failstate here where there's no more enemies left (both in the lab and in the Matrix level) and no way to proceed; not sure if it's a bug or if I'm missing something. Sorry for the triple-post

Hello toddbryanton!
:9mm: There is supposed to be an ending when beat the AI, we even have a cinematic for it... So I'm concerned if that didn't open up... I'll have to check to make sure I didn't mislink things. I probably forgot to switch the scene transition...
:9mm: Those neutral turn issues are a pain. I didn't realize there was one there. I have a few others I've been looking into as well. Thanks for letting me know.
:9mm: Akimi has to be called using her phone number and then picked up outside Daley station. I'll have to double check her logic too.

:9mm: The final matrix encounter is not well tested. There are 4 matrix jackpoints in the room. Each has to be unlocked either by key, brute force, or brains. Those give access to the different sections.
:9mm: Wait, what? (The MyNameIsATroll)
:9mm: I'll look into the hired runner logic... They are useless if they leave that quickly in Aneki...
:9mm: There are numerous switches in the matrix... If you came in from all 4 jack points, you should have been able to click them all... I'll have to make sure I didn't accidentally delete a tag or mislabel something. Most likely a bug
:9mm: No worries about the triple-post! I will likely move into into its own thread later so I can better track it.

Cool, thanks! Akimi issue is just that I don’t get option to call her after finding her number.

I tried replaying everything leading up to the lab. I have the 1st and 2nd Aneki keys, and I pick up the 4th one after killing the Troll decker. I can't figure out where the 3rd key is. I used 1st, 2nd, 4th keys to unlock three of the boxes. For the last box, the attack option leads to combat but there's no way to target the box. I've tried both the high intelligence and strength options on the box, and each time I eventually get a success message. But in the Matrix afterward, I end up in failstate. There is one switch I can throw, but the other switch, and the AI baby head, stay trapped behind red bars no matter what I do. I'm able to clear out all the enemies by targeting IC trapped behind bars with area attacks like Blaster, leaving the level totally empty. Jacking out at a jackpoint crashes the game; the only way to get out is through emergency jack out.

Interesting, the "MyNameIsATroll" bug after jacking out of one of the last matrix points, also appeared in the original Dead Man's Switch campaign, the exact same way for me as this guy describes it: https://www.reddit.com/r/shadowrunreturns/comments/1zvxr5/an_interesting_game_ending_bug/

Hmm... Let me think... There's a key you get from siding with the humans / hidden safe, the key from the bathroom, the key from the troll... I can't remember the last one... I know I hide it somewhere!

Sounds like a bug... sometimes weirdness happens when I try and spawn invisible NPCs

Definitely sounds like a bug then... Which also means you are the first person to make it to the end! Congrats! Can you share a couple screenshots so I can see specifically what's blocked?

That's encouraging! I was starting to worry one of my mappers snuck some logic in without me noticing :wasted:

Sure, no problem. I'm not very familiar with Steam (this is my first time posting on any discussions). I'm not sure if I can post screenshots directly on here...here's a zipped folder with screenshots:

Ahh, I see you are on a mac. On a windows box you can press F12 to take screen captures through steam and then you can upload them directory. I assume mac has something similar.

Thanks for the screen shots. It'll help me look into it. I'm going to try and make time this weekend...
