#Abilities not saving and getting removed when I enter act 3 basement. (PS4/PS5)

I was playing hello neighbor ps4 and accidentally entered the basement with just the fear supermarket ability. (Entered by instinct) I crouched, no ability. I left the basement and when I crouched, no ability. I saved and reloaded, still no ability. I went to see if I needed to rebeat the minigame, and yet again, no ability. This has happened to me before when I had all of my abilities playing the game casually, and when trying to speedrun. It’s really frustrating to have to replay the game to beat it, especially because of how frequent the glitch is. I know the ps4 version hasn’t been updated in a while but I’d love at least a hotfix for the bug.

Also the way I entered the bassement does not matter (I tested it for the abiluty from fear supermarket)

#

Also when restarting the ability isn't "gained" but when dying to the shadow man it is

Also, leaving the bassement when having "gained" the ability and then reentering it "loses the ability"

#

Also dying to the neighbor at the end of the bassement gives me back all of my abilities (tested for the abilities from fear school and fear supermarket)

Also, if I save and load the save when I was in the bassement while not "having" the abilities, this will permanently softlock me as when respawning in act 3 (like the neighbor's house) I won't have the ability while also not being able to access the fear room

Ok so we figured (sure at 80%) with @tame jewel that this bug was due to the autosaving not working properly on the ps5. We found out that when entering the basement normally, the glitch would occur but then when going into the settings which autosaves the game and then as fast as possible get into the basement while the autosaving sign was still there, it would make the glitch disappear
