Talk:Proximity Test: Fungus Among Us Adventure

Explanatory image

I uploaded a screenshot to [[File:Proximity Test: Fungus Among Us Adventure.jpg]], but I can't seem to get it to pop up on the page. SarielV 06:07, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

You must have accepted (without realising?) that when you uploaded the file it threw a message saying the ":" was replaced with a "-". File:Proximity Test- Fungus Among Us Adventure.jpg. -Chieftain Alex 09:32, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Probably skimmed the message and thought it was complaining about .png vs. .jpg. Thanks man :) SarielV 17:03, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Bronze?

I assume the change wasn't made lightly, but the hint clearly says Silver. SarielV 14:46, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

I tested it my self. Took me ages to get bronze. but it worked. 18:07, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

Weird acquisition rules

I don't think the acquisition tips in this article are accurate. I eventually got credit for this, but not by doing what the article suggested. Here's a list of everything I tried:

• Achieved silver (this was the first time I'd achieved bronze or silver! Woot!) then immediately used the generator before doing anything else. Didn't work.
• Looted the bouncy chests, tried generator. Didn't work.
• Opened the bronze and silver lootbags, tried generator. Didn't work.
• Reset the adventure, kept start window open, tried generator. Didn't work.
• Closed start window, tried generator. Didn't work.
• Tried the adventure again, but failed to finish. Checked the wiki at this point and tried the tip of using the generator after opening the strongbox while transformed. Didn't work.
• Tried to get bronze a few more times, failed to finish. Gave up, reset adventure, closed start window, then, frustrated that I'd been screwed over by a bug, spam-clicked the generator while pleading with it to give me credit. I obviously wasn't expecting that to work, but guess what? It worked!

Very weird. I don't understand what happened here so I'm not going to update the article, but hopefully this information will help someone else figure it out. :p --Idris (talk) 14:13, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Just had a thought -- I was experiencing a bit of lag at the time. Perhaps it took until I started spam-clicking the generator because normal double-clicks weren't being registered? I'm not convinced of this, since all my other clicks were registering just fine, but it's a thought. --Idris (talk) 14:31, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

I wrote up a good chunk of HOPE, and I keep an eye on the pages here and the forums for other issues that arise. For this, I knew going in people were having trouble getting the item, so I was prepared when it happened to me. I ran the adventure another time (got bronze), still failed to get the Prox Test. After checking at the start of the race, I... think I gave up for a day and came back, ran it again (bronze), reset the adventure and finally got it at the start. My memory of this now isn't so good.

Point being, I wrote down what I thought worked, and I can no longer test this. If you have something definitive, hash it out here. Maybe we can all compare notes and make a better conclusion :) SarielV 17:57, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Hm, I don't think I've got anything definitive either. It looks like what our stories have in common is that we both got credit at the start, after resetting, long after the original completion of bronze/silver. But apparently some folks have been able to get credit in the middle of the adventure, so, idk. I think we need more data. I say that for now, we make it clearer in the article that credit for this item is buggy and we're not sure how to make it work. --Idris (talk) 19:41, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. I like your current update. SarielV 20:36, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

How I got it: achieved Silver, went back to the start, transformed to Mushroom again, hit 0 (exit transform) while spamming Synergetic Generator. Poof, there is my collection update. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 46.59.168.3 (talk • contribs).

My apologies for formatting and all that, but this is my first time adding anything to a wiki/discussion, but I figured I'd add my experiences as well:

• Did the adventure, got a bronze. Tried using the generator before opening bouncy chests, but at end. Failed.
• Opened bouncy chests, but not bronze chest, tried using generator, still at the end. Failed.
• Opened bronze chest, at the end of the adventure, tried using generator. Failed.
• Moved to beginning of adventure and attempted to spam generator, non-transformed. Failed.
• Started adventure, (all after finishing it and getting bronze) spammed generator. Failed.
• Reset adventure, started again, got to the strongbox and spammed generator. Failed.
• Reset adventure, back to the beginning, started again and spammed again. Failed.
• Reset and started adventure, hit 0 (exit transform) while spamming generator. Success, got the collection. --Loperdos87 (talk) 02:07, 18 July 2016 (UTC)

Sounds like mine, but with Bronze. Being out of the transformation appears to be key. I can tell from the screenshot that I wasn't in the adventure yet, but I don't know if you can still be in the transform at that stage. SarielV 16:24, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
