Icarus Hotfix Addresses Broken Mission Spawns
The latest hotfix for Icarus resolves progression blockers across multiple operations, fixing wolf pack triggers, creature spawns in labs, and prebuilt structure cleanups.
Rocket Werkz has pushed a targeted hotfix for Icarus to resolve critical progression blockers across several operations. These fixes apply immediately to both new sessions and active prospects already in progress.
Mission Progression Fixes
The Livewire operation receives a fix for an issue where killing the wolf pack before triggering the travel event halted all progress. Wolves now spawn correctly and count toward objectives upon updating. Duplicate wolf dens no longer spawn on reload. The Nexus and Relics operations now correctly spawn mutated creatures and soldiers in the central labs, and Courier fixes address soldier spawns at camps. The Liberation operation secures mission steps properly, while Nomad, Shadowed, Tempest, Dispatch, and Fracture correct a bug where completed building events failed to fire and hide objective displays.
Structure and World Cleanup
The hotfix addresses lingering structure spawning and decal cleanup problems across operations. A known issue remains with the Offender mission, where cave worms occasionally fail to spawn and halt progression.
Why this patch matters
This hotfix clears out roadblocks that previously forced players to abandon active missions, ensuring smoother operation completions.
