PLEASE READ: Grounded Bugged Troubles Brewin Quest


Recommended Posts

Hey All.

My friend and I have been playing Grounded since it originally was in early access. We have come a long long way and the game is great, but this BUG is definitely worth investigating. Recently we were trying to complete the quest "Troubles Brewin" where you must craft the Embiggening ****tail at the Javamatic machine. My friend and I did this .. as in crafted the item and were told to turn on the javamatic. Once we did, and fixed the mix.r modules we didn't want to continue because we thought it was end game. SO, we left the area and continued to do other stuff like complete the stump lab, killed some black widows (very poor super venom drop rate in our game btw it was 4 widows : 1 venom), killed director shmector, the mantis, and FINALLY went back to get this quest done. But, now it does not recognize the embiggening cell having been crafted and we cannot proceed. The cell is inside the coffee pot and we have all the materials. Our game even tells us we completed that step. But every time we click "start" on the javamatic nothing happens. PLEASE if anyone knows how to fix this let me know.

I haven't  gotten that far in the Game....but I have watched some videos on setting up the last challenge in the Game's Ending. (Sir Sim-a-Lot for one).  But, in general,  speaking to Dr. Windle and having him with you is necessary to start the challenge.  Hope this is the case.....an easy fix.  If he is  already present and accounted for....and you have spoken with him before pressing the start button and it still glitches out.....contact the Obsidian Team.  Also, check back here. Someone else may have had the same problem and figured a way around it. Good luck. 😉

We are on the same quest and having the same issue. 

Prepatch 1.0.2 we started it, brewed the drink then click the button on the calculator, then the fused broke and we repaired them annnnd.. nothing. We are stuck. It says to brew it agian and we can't. 

We looked around and noticed that Wendel was back in his base for some reason, so we went back and got him. He acted like we hadn't gotten him yet (all dialog was reset) So we brewed the drink once more, the fused blew agian, we repaired them again and poof - same problem. The button on the calculator doesn't allow us to do anything.

 

Really disappointing considering all the hard work we did to get this far and now we can't even finish the game...

Having the same problems. Started the Java, made the repairs, then went off and finished my collectables, went back and the calculator isn't on, I have no prompt to start it up, or mix new ingredients... I'm actually annoyed, worked all this way with the collectables and what not to be only stopped by a silly but like this. Hopefully they can't sort this with a patch because I'm really not going through all that again man.
