No green lights turned on for the candle puzzle likes it mentions according to the guide. Left us scratching our heads for an hour.

Hey Zylo, sorry to hear. This is a peculiar one that I'm not entirely sure what the cause is. Sounds like maybe some visibility activators weren't being triggered properly.

Can I ask how many players were in your session? None saw the lights turn on? We're you getting the audible "dings" every time the thermometers hit their green zones?

Are you supposed to be able to go into the kitchen or upstairs? There's an invisible barrier stopping you from going in/up.

I've been running into the invisible barrier on and off in the kitchen and am a bit confounded by what's causing it. The stairs are not usable, I need to come up with a decent natural barrier to put in front of them to stop players from thinking they might be traversable.

I'd perhaps suggest just breaking one of the stairs so it's obvious you're not supposed to go up, but doing that without making it look like it just requires a plank or something to fix before you're supposed to go up to do more puzzles might be difficult. I played The Devils Diorama 2 and it had the same invisible wall problem in the first puzzle room. The creator said that it was probably due to an engine update, maybe check the comments of that for more information?

Actually just found the problem item that was causing that invisible obstacle, although it had no properties that should've really been causing any issues or creating any sort of barrier in the middle of the kitchen. Disabled its "Obstacle" properties for now, will do further investigating to see if it is in fact the latest update causing some type of issue.

We got this exact issue while playing multiplayer with 2 people today. We both couldn't see any green lights or hear any audible "ding" with the thermometers.

Thanks for the report Allixir. I haven't been able to reproduce this in multiplayer yet, so having trouble nailing it down. If it was just the lights not going off I would say it would have something to do with visibility activators not firing correctly, but the "ding" not also playing wouldn't line up with this.
