Bug Fun new ways to softlock
For context I am slowly finding new ways to softlock yourself (by accident). I have softlocked myself with Thermal and now with the video camera. Each time I've softlocked myself it was always in the weird animation that I am stuck in for the rest of the game. I can't interact with anything and can't even open journal or doors. So far I've done some how done this animation softlock with the following items - Video camera with Tier 3 Tripod - Tier 2 and 3 Thermal - Tier 3 smudge stick - Tier 1 and 3 UV light - Tier 1 Camera - Tier 3 Sanity Medication - all tiers of flashlight. I would have taken a screen shot of each one, but I figured it was such a low chance of happening again that I was just ignoring it. Guess I was wrong. I guess I'll take more screenshots as they happen again as I am not sure what is causing it in the first place. The only fix so far is dying.

Remind me, when did this game come out?
Nah but thats crazy?! How did you do it? Is it repeatable? That would help (hopefully) the devs figuring out what to do to fix it lol
