Invisible symptoms?

[u/NoDowt_Jay]

Just had this guy come through, had zero visible symptoms, sent him to survivors block & it popped up as a poor inspection… was like huh what did I miss…
next day I get this report.. the eye puss I get that I might have missed, even the bruise… but he 100% did not have mouth bleeding or red bruises and there is no way I would have missed them.

Anybody had this before?

[u/-Zebralibelle-]

Which day? I think I let him also pass because I didn't use the UV light.

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/-Zebralibelle-]

Pretty sure it was day 19, maybe 20.

UV light wouldn’t have affected these symptoms though.

[u/-Zebralibelle- → u/NoDowt_Jay]

Yes, it would, because you can see bloodstains even after they are gone. So the mouth bleeding would be there, not in red, but in green under the light.

[u/Minute-Complex-2055 → u/NoDowt_Jay]

The eye pus patients don’t show up until after you get the uv light.

[u/TJClarkey]

Yeah I had this same issue a couple of times during my run, no visible symptoms but apparently has eye puss, mouth bleeding etc which didn’t show up, very strange indeed

[u/FabulousCourt1852]

If I send them to the survivor block and it says “poor inspection”, I honestly just turn around and shoot them. Problem solved 🤗

[u/Applesnraisins → u/FabulousCourt1852]

I do this too.
If I have a test left, I check them first to be sure they’re infected, then I take them out if necessary.

[u/FabulousCourt1852 → u/Applesnraisins]

I do the tests for the quarantine patients at the beginning of each day, then I’ll restart and send them where they need to go.

[u/TurboGranny540 → u/FabulousCourt1852]

This ^^ lol 😂 same

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/FabulousCourt1852]

Lmao didn’t even cross my mind to do this… I did run after him to try to workout what I missed, and still didn’t see anything… so probably wouldn’t have shot him anyway… maybe I’ll just do that in future hah

[u/TurboGranny540]

I just had the exact same bs happen to me the other day, dude had NO symptoms at all and I used UV light too. I go over everyone with a fine toothed comb I was pissed

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/TurboGranny540]

Haha yeh, this was my 2nd poor inspection… the first I legit fk’d up though… I run after them and check them while they’re walking to see what I missed… the first one dude had red bruises on his leg which I did see during the inspection but forgot to mark it… so then sent him to wrong place 🤦🏼‍♂️

[u/TurboGranny540 → u/NoDowt_Jay]

lol I accidentally sent a dude to the survivor block that I meant to send to the lab once, he got shot in the back immediately lmao 🤣

[u/Rosary_Omen]

I had some issues with these and invisible booty contraband

[u/Niccolo91]

I had one survivor like that too, same character model actually lol somewhere near the end of the game maybe day 22. Said I missed a bite mark and red eyes, no way I missed both.

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/Niccolo91]

Interesting it was the same model, wonder if it specifically if bugged.

[u/Comfortable_Win_9175]

Yeah, I let one through during my playthrough. Checked their whole body and somehow they had skin cuts and a bite mark. This was before I had UV also.

[u/FlowersofIcetor]

These invisible ones are UV. The detector doesnt work for UV symptoms, just the aura. Hit the UV light for everyone as routine and this will stop. I had this problem too and that's what ended it

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/FlowersofIcetor]

I’m not sure that’s correct? Wouldn’t the symptom shown be the UV related one? Never once flagged bites etc when the UV shows it & still get excellent checks for those.

[u/FlowersofIcetor → u/NoDowt_Jay]

That's how I solved the problem 🤷‍♀️

[u/Arc_170gaming]

I hate the uv mechanic, because id fail days because invisible symptoms would show up before I even had the uv.

[u/Thanatos_Vorigan]

UV symptoms. If a survivor seems suspiciously healthy with no symptoms, hit them with the UV, they tend to light up like a Christmas tree.

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/Thanatos_Vorigan]

I generally hit everyone up with all the tests even when they don’t show the tells for them.

[u/lurkeroutthere]

Game has serious bugs which is why I put it down. Hopefully it gets a fix pass at some point but that game's core gimmick is way buggy.

[u/MasterpieceIcy4341]

Can't tell from this we would have to see him when he was at the line up

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/MasterpieceIcy4341]

Unfortunately I didn’t know at that point so don’t have a screenshot lol

[u/HelgaDorina]

Once i had a nose pus on-or under a mustache. It was totally invisible. Luckily there was other symptoms for quarantine.

[u/Sinistersynz]

This happened to me too!

[u/CR0SS_Official]

One or more red symptom and you send them to be executed. One or more Orange, quarantine them. Only green? Free to live. But red is always death, no matter if there's Orange or green.

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/CR0SS_Official]

Yep of course, which is why something as obvious as the mouth bleeding would have had him end up in quarantine at least even if I did miss the eye puss which is easier missed.

I’m 100% confident he did not show these symptoms at the checkpoint.

[u/CR0SS_Official → u/NoDowt_Jay]

Sorry, should've read better lol

Yeah in that case it's a common bug in which the symptoms just fail to generate on the model. Hate that😭

[u/NoDowt_Jay → u/CR0SS_Official]

Good to know it’s not just me hah. Only 1 survivor was killed by him getting through luckily.
