It is. Some people will encounter it, some never will. But if you fail the barrier task, it will happen eventually.

Additional details: you can easily trigger this bug deliberately the next time a barrier defense task comes up, if you want to see how it works.

1. Accept the task

2. Approach the barrier so that the event begins

3. Leave and get more than 90 meters away

The task will fail, and the flag will not be cleared. From that point on, even the debug menu won't be able to trigger emissions. They are broken in that save, at least until the next time you successfully complete this task.

If this happens, that's what the variable in the first line of this script is for. It unsets that flag.

The other change to the script unsets it when the task fails so that the bug will never actually happen in the first place.

Thank you so much for fixing this Catspaw. I am glad I was able to help test and figure out what the issue was. I had this bug hit me twice now and it's great to have emissions (and artifacts) back.

This mod is a must have, and I hope it's fixed in the next version of Anomaly.

Thank you for your help! This bug has been around for a while, and yeah, I'm hoping something like this makes it into the next version. It's a simple enough fix.
