If you lack stats and skills alike, going into Elcine's "Fix Machine" option to try and fix the tram will softlock the game, as the scene/event lacks a "Back" option.
If you don't have enough stats, "Kinetic Fix" is grayed out. If you lack the skills, 'Bypass' ("You've got no experience with damaged hardware...") and 'Software Fix' ("You don't have the technical knowledge...") are likewise grayed out; I'm surprised I didn't seem to find a bug on this trying to search, aside... I guess everyone's running around with techs and muscleheads, not psionic (ok, Kinetisist) traps.
Attached is a screenshot of the lack of options, and a save that was a "Save to File" on the same tile as Elcine and Syne, at the train station in Phaedra II -- to reproduce from the save, just talk with Elcine and go to 'Fix Machine' and you should match the screenshot.

to add on to this, the fourth option of a Lewd Repair does not have a disabled button if the player does not meet the requirements

The stat checks there were originally set 100x too low. I pointed out kineticists didn't have an option to bypass the stat checks if it got fixed, but I guess that wasn't addressed.


For now you can either raise physique or libido to >75% of their max to unlock options here.

Bleh, I'll have to figure something out for those then, until the bug is fixed and the thing gets looked at to find a real option for kineticists to use to get through it.

Ty for keeping this alive.

Stat checks should be fixed on the latest, let me know if it's still an issue.

I have added a disabled lust button for the next patch, to match the other disabled buttons.

I'll raise the missing kinet option. edit: took a stab at writing for it, and submitted the button for kinet at least.

Ok, just checked -- Game Version: 0.9.110-PUBLIC#5392 according to the main menu -- the save in my OP still has nothing (including no "leave" option), I went through the effort to bulk up my kin's physique after my post on the 8th and that one can make the physique check fine once I piled on the extra muscle for it (I was ~50%, 32/65, in the OP save, and grinded past the 75% point, to 50/65, before I went back to check up on it), but considering 9.110 came plagued with RL stuff for people, and save files being weird things, I'm not entirely unsurprised to find the OP save broken still.
