Re: Locked in combat, can't collect/scan/etc.

Product: STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor
Platform:Steam-PC
Summarize your bug After slicing a BX Droid (Melee), and not killing it, and leaving the area, I'm unable to us BD to slice anything, and a section of the map is now "in combat" (unable to use BD to look around, or use a force attune marker). Changing areas, reloading the game, restarting the computer, none are able to clear this state.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Presumably, the bug is caused by slicing a droid and not killing it. Location: In the Hunter's Quarry, just outside Rambler's Reach Outpost. Steps?: Locate/Have a BX Droid (melee) + BX Droid (Ranged) encounter spawn, fight the Melee, and slice the Melee droid. Leave. I did kill the Ranged droid, but didn't kill the Melee, then went back into the Outpost. I was on the "Locate Reyvis on the Shattered Moon" main objective. This is before going into the ruins where the laser that burns the solid dust barriers and activating it.
What happens when the bug occurs? Most of the area of Hunter's Quarry I cannot use D-Pad Down to use BD, if trying to link the laser to the silo (that explodes when you do this), I can't stay in BD mode, as it says I'm in combat. While in this area, if I pull out my lightsaber and stand still, Cal doesn't put it away (due to being in combat). The Force attune marker in the building with all the eye stalks, I can't use as I'm in Combat (even after doing the fight in there). I tried to slice open the chest in the Mountain Ascent area (the one locked behind the force lift/crush power), when I tried to use BD when given the prompt, it just won't activate (and the chest no longer says I can slice it). If I try slice another droid (even a BX Droid pair), I get the prompt to slice, but pressing D-Pad down doesn't do anything. Using BD to fire the rocks, or electricity still works as expected.
What do you expect to see? I shouldn't be in combat, which is why I can't activate the force attunement point (I can activate other markers). I should be able to use BD to slice droids and chests.

Presumably, this is a Game Breaking bug, as I'm unable to use BD to slice, so any location that requires me to do so, seems to not function (although, I don't have anywhere specific to go and test).

I don't have a copy of my save game prior to this bug, but I have made a copy of my save where this is happening, and taken a couple of screenshots.

Unable to use BD when not in combat
Even after a fight, I cannot use BD (there are no other enemies in the area)
Unable to interact with Jedi Attunement point
The attunement point under the eyeball house, I cannot interact with

Location of where the Jedi Attunement point is
Location of both screenshots (the fight was just outside of town)

The other side of Hunter's Quarry is still considered in combat, if I enter the pathway here, I'm no longer considered in Combat.

  • It seems the problem with slicing has fixed itself, I was able to slice a B2 Battle Droid, and after that, I've been able to both scan and slice the chest in the Shiverpede Nest (which was broken before).
    Possible I was able to eventually load enough enemies to fix a reference pointer or something?

    I'll attempt to find another BX Droid and see if the problem reasserts itself.

    I am still considered In Combat though for the area of Hunter's Quarry

  • @Vernatia Ok, no amount of droid hacking and walking away seems to cause the issue again (which is good).
    The permanently "In combat" for the zone is still in play, so that doesn't seem to fix itself, unfortunately.
