New AE Rikti Space Station Map back room boss spawn is broken.

[Ankylosaur]

tldr; a boss, placed in the back, is teleported to the "green death pit" of the middle level upon the player entering the back room. This makes the boss unable to be fought.

While I love the new Rikti Map's feel, it is a very complicated one, obviously part of a trial or something. I worked out how to use it, what the microreactors do, and more but ran into the game-breaking bug above. Any time I portal into the back room, my main boss is teleported away before the fight begins.

 

The green pit of death in the middle room is problematic in other ways too, in that allies can get trapped there. They don't seem to die, but rather just stand around, like the teleported boss, making me wonder if they are dead and maybe mid-transport to the map's hospital - but the game does not know how to deal with that with allies?

 

Removing all the "floor is lava" spots might make the map a little easier to use too. Have not tested that much in the back room as I encountered this bug, but worth considering if you do take the time to make your new, very cool, map a little more usable.

This is a known bug. Issue with the map beacons. Will be fixed when Page 3 goes live. 🙂

The way I read it was: "We're going to Space in Page 3!"

 

I've also predicted a Clown Mastermind set, so, I've been wrong before.

If, at the same time, something could help prevent the AI of allies from wandering into the green pit at the entry or middle, that would be a nice refinement too.

 

Also - allies who enter the back room never advance from the portal - they are just stuck there
