[Pard][2.0.20] Gleba-related tips and tricks not unlocking

Post by IsaacOscar »

Basically the "Agriculture", "Spoilables", and "Spoilage percentage in production" tips and tricks have not unlocked for me:

See the prototypes here: Note that I have satisfied the "trigger" and "skip_trigger" conditions listed by the above:
  • I''ve Landed on Gleba,
  • I've spent more than 180 Minutes on Gleba
  • I've researched Agriculture
  • I've set the recipe on a biochamber 5 times
This is not a big problem as I can just modify my "player-data.json" file, but other players likely don't know how to do that, or even know that they're missing said tips and tricks.

Note that unlike 120526 and 121906, I had no problems unlocking the "Briefing" tips and tricks (I haven't even landed on fulgora or aquillo yet, and they're briefings are unlocked, nor have I unlocked the aquillo planet discovery research).

On a slightly related note, according to my player-data.json file, the status of "vulcanus-briefing" is "completed-without-tutorial", but I don't see a tutorial:

I have the same problem with Fulgora briefing and lightning mechanics tips and tricks not appearing. I had only visited Vulcanus before and unlocked those tips and tricks without problems.

I tried changing the status for the missing tips in player-data.json to "completed" but when I launch the game the properties get reset to "locked". How did you manage to overcome this?

I am on version 2.0.21 and have also not unlocked ANY Gleba tips and tricks (not even the briefing), although I have researched the planet, landed there and unlocked all technologies up until and including the biochamber

Yes, I had this problem due to steam, you want to edit the file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\######\427520\remote\player-data.json

Where ##### is your steam ID number (just search the userdata folder for 427520).

You may also need to disable steams cloud sync if that file keeps getting overwritten as well.

This might be a more general issue with the tips & tricks, at least the ones relating to the 4 researchable planets & their mechanics. A lot of people had this issue where the planet briefing didn't unlock: 120526. For me it randomly unlocked after about 20-30 hours, but the related tips&tricks for planet mechanics still didn't.

Hi! Here's mine:

The entries right after lava processing look suspicious, and lava processing was the last tips & tricks section that unlocked normally for me. Since then, the two briefings have randomly appeared after a long while, but I still didn't get the planet mechanics ones. I'd understand if the spoilables one didn't trigger because I've already done all Gleba research, but the Aquilo one didn't trigger either, and those briefings unlocked good 20h before I set foot on Aquilo. Now I've been on Aquilo for more than 30h and still didn't get the heating mechanics one. My `player-data.json` shows both of these as `locked` and `spoilables-result` as `dependencies-not-met`.

Woops, here it is. Not that I have modified my player-data.json file since I posted this bug report, so some of the entries may be my fault not the games.

The problem was in the unfortunate migration of allowTipActivationFlag. After loading the game on future release (2.0.23 or higher), it should correct in the save file, and tips should be unlocked as normal. You will need to trigger some tips by performing correct actions, for example, landing on Gleba to have the agriculture tip correctly displayed. Thank you all for your input. If you encounter other problems with unlocking tips after the mentioned version, please create a new report.
