Haha that does sound slightly familiar! Like Mario Kart's Lakatu on steroids. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Lol okay solved! Colliding with an opening door just yeets an NPC (safely) out of the way.

Haha there needs to be a "monkey's paw" community but around what new bugs pop up when someone proposes a fix for a mechanic.


New bug report: Essential NPC unable to be interacted with because they walk toward the door to greet the player and get clipped through the opposite wall at high speed.

Sometimes they fall through the map and the game crashes when they reach -9999 meters, other times they die intersecting the wall and it soft locks the main quest.


Fun story rq: Deus Ex: Human Revolution had the most bizarre bug where, if you talked to a gang before getting the quest to go clear them out, on the second visit one of them would just spawn... like...on the moon, apparently? (A ridiculous distance upwards, not even visible except by objective marker) Made the quest unbeatable until they patched it hahaha.
