I am stuck on the presumably optional puzzle in the Repair Room in the Factory, to the point where I think it might be a bug. The solution seems to be to use a sequence of items with an object in the room. If I use what I think is the first item, nothing happens other than closing the item menu, and I still have the item. If I use anything else that I have, I get the same result as if I had used that item straight from my inventory, suggesting failure. I'd think that SOMETHING should happen when using that first item.


Edit: Oh right, using the items in the expected sequence (or others) also failed beyond the first item. That's important imformation I left out. Also, I had previously used some of those items in the puzzle in the room immediately following the room where those items are obtained, so I went back to the room where I got them and got new ones. That could matter.

Just to be clear, you completed the puzzle in that room after the one you got the materials without a problem, right?

I will try to replicate the bug here, so expect this post to be updated in the next 30 minutes (or maybe 2 hours, assuming it's more complex than i think haha). 

Thanks for letting me know! And sorry for the trouble.

While i try to replicate the bug, feel free to comment here about any possible extra info or if you made any progress.

Edit: Checked the event, tried to replicate in-game multiple times in different conditions, but i couldn't make it fail. It's apparently working properly.

I will post some spoilers below. Since comments on Itch.io doesn't have a spoiler function, i will edit this post deleting the spoilers after your reply, okay?

About returning to the room you got the materials to take some more, don't worry, you're supposed to do this.

Please reply this post to inform wheter you've used the repair machine previously or not.

Edit: Deleted the paragraphs with spoilers.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean. I got the materials, completed the PRMI puzzle and lost some of them, then returned to get the materials again and now I'm stuck on the Repair Room puzzle.

Okay, that would be the issue. I have not done that other thing with the machine yet.


Thanks for the quick reply.

Oh, that's a relief! haha

At first, the repair machine could be used in any order, but then there was a rare chance of hard locking the game this way, so i decided to make sure the player used the repair machine to get the mandatory item first.

To be honest, the only hint that the materials could be used to make the module in the repair machine would only appear if you checked it after defeating the boss, but you figured it out without the hint haha

Thanks for the info. Feel free to reply in the comments about anything in the game, bug or not.

Huh. There is a file in the repair room that is pretty blatant about what to do there, as least to me.

I think it's sorta obvious after you get the materials. 

In hindsight, i was probably expecting most players to get the mandatory item before reaching that point with the PRMI room in Tower of Light, but of course it would be common with the non linear nature of the game haha

Maybe i should change that in an update. It can be really misleading now that you mentioned it.

I'd like to report that it worked correctly after the event that you described.
