#Shared cutscene not stopping the clock

Hello,
I'm playing with a friend, and I'm NOT the host. This bug/problem could probably also appear in single player, but I'm playing in multi so I'm posting it here.

Sorry if the title is vague, didn't want to display spoilers there. Also, it's the same cutscene as the other report but it's not the same bug hence a different report.

We finished the quest for the mermaids, the one with the 50 or 75 osmium crops and the 30 osmium kelp essence ("Starlet expedition" I think). We were waiting for the start of the expedition but didn't paid much attention as to when we should trigger it.

And so, inadvertently, we triggered the first mermaid land expedition at 10pm ("To the Surface" quest). During end of fall, the 25th or the 26th.
Putting aside the starting time, it's a shared cutscene.
In multiplayer, those cutscenes usually stop the clock while at least one player is watching it.
During this specific one (and none before or after), the clock didn't stop. So in the middle of it, we heard the 1am sound effect. "Oh ho, problem". And then, during the inn part of the cutscene (where after midnight Valentina welcomes us in the inn, with three strangers arriving on the island not by boat somehow) the cutscene stops and we're both booted to the "end of the day" screen.

**Reproduction Steps **

  • Start the first mermaid land expedition during the evening.
  • Maybe it happened exactly during the transition time of "when the cutscene should be played or not", thus launching the cutscene but none of the failsafe and stopping the clock functions ?
    **Repro Rate ** Probably everytime? I can't really test this one again...
    **Game Platform ** Steam
    Game Version v1.2b-1244
    Input Mode Player A, host, mouse and keyboard. Player B, PS4 controller
    Your save file Can provide it if needed
    **Attachment ** Here's a screenshot

Hi @shut carbon, I was a bit confused at first since it looks like this is similar to a previous report you shared 😅 But noted about the clock, I’ll make sure to flag this to the team! 😉

Just to double-check: were both of you still in the middle of the cutscene when the end-of-day screen popped up, or had one of you already finished watching the cutscene? 👀

Yes, I confirmed we were both in the middle of the cutscene. We didn't skip the cutscene, it stopped right in the middle of a dialogue
