Hey folks! Been trying out B42 for the past week, and am absolutely loving it. Normally, I don't have any gripes with the muscle strain mechanic, but as of my most recent character I've noticed it starts to build up like normal, but then refuses to drain/go away under any circumstances. About an in-game week ago the helicopter event struck, so I spent all day in my base alternating between exercising and reading. Since then, it hasn't mattered if I rest or sleep, I can look at the muscle strain values in the debug menu and see the them not changing whatsoever. I'm able to reset it back to 0 from the debug menu, but even that doesn't fix it - newly gained muscle strain still does not go down.
I have been able to replicate this on a 2nd character for testing using the exact same starting build, with the same methods (exercising for 20 - 30 minutes, break for 45 - 60, repeat). I have no idea whether this is a bug, something to do with the mods I have installed (lifestyle's yoga component which reduces muscle strain, and more trait's gym-goer trait come to mind as potential suspects), but it is driving me up the goddamned wall. I would very much prefer to not have to start a fresh character and avoid exercising altogether.
Anyone have an issue like this, or know a fix? Any help would be massively appreciated. Thanks!
