[PS5] Alien scarecrow has not unlocked

[bright lion]

I'm playing on PS5 v1.1b-1232 and Alien Scarecrow has not unlocked to sell in the monkey shop after having the satellite meteor event. I'm in year 3 and only had 1 event so far.

[PS5] Alien scarecrow has not unlocked

Hello @bright lion! Thank you for your report. Others have also mentioned this issue here https://discord.com/channels/623097219628662784/1310570362932826164, and the team has fixed the issue. Hopefully, the fix will be released soon so you can purchase the Scarecrow normally.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this process!

Hi @lusty relic ,

The issue you mentioned is not related to the one I'm raising. The mentioned issue we're raising that the scarecrows are unlocked in the monkey shop but are sold out (this is happening to me as well). What I'm raising here is that the Alien Scarecrow has not unlocked in the monkey shop after the requirement of having the satellite meteor event. It's not even an option for purchasing

It's a different issue

@lusty relic I see we had a similar issue in the past

https://discord.com/channels/623097219628662784/1282660414378872853

The player claimed to have seen 2 meteor events and still the Alien was not unlocked. The team has checked their save file and confirmed the next one would unlock it

So, for that player the third one unlocked the Alien. The requirement to have it unlocked is only seeing one

The issue has not been fixed but closed. I'm having the same one

[lusty relic]

Oh! Thank you for clarifying further, Mellitus. Could you let us know the in-game date when you got the Meteor or Satellite cutscene? Also, did you visit the Concerned Monkey on the same day after the cutscene?

Hi @lusty relic ,
I don't recall the exact date as it was in the first year and I'm currently in the fourth. But no, I haven't checked the Concerned Monkey in the same day, I've only checked a couple of days later as at that time I wasn't trying to buy the scarecrow.

[lusty relic]

I see! So, did you get the cutscene before 1.1b update by any chance? If so, did you received another cutscene in the 1.1b version? 😮

[bright lion]

My save file has been created after 1.1b-1232 release

[lusty relic]

Copy that! Just to confirm, how many times have you experienced the Meteor or Satellite cutscene from year 1-4 in total?

[bright lion]

Being honest, I think it was twice, but I'm not totally sure about the second one. The first one I'm pretty sure because it destroyed my crops =/

I've played more than 160h in this save

I think my scenario is the exact one as the link I've sent you

[lusty relic]

Aw, I’m really sorry to hear that. :((

[lusty relic]

I see. If you happen to play again and visit the Concerned Monkey, could you kindly record a video of the shop list there, Mellitus? No rush—feel free to send it whenever you’re able.

[bright lion]

Hi @lusty relic , follows the requested recording

[lusty relic]

Well received! I'm bringing this to the team to check this. I'll get back to you if we need any other info. Thanks, Mellitus!

This problem does not only occur on PS5, I am a PC (Steam) player who has experienced four meteor events (and harvested it of course), and the alien scarecrow still has not appeared in the store.
And I checked the store on the day I harvested the meteor and the next day, but it still didn't appear.

Hi @quasi schooner! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

Could you let us know the in-game date when you last encountered the Meteor event? Also, could you share your SaveGames folder so our team can take a closer look?

You can find the folder by copying and pasting this path into your File Explorer:
%localappdata%\ProjectCoral\Saved\SaveGames

We appreciate your help.
