RE: reporting a minor bug with the omni tool - Romulator - 11-03-2015
For those having problems reaching inside Tau, here is an autosave file which occurs just inside.

You will spawn rather shortly inside Tau, where the airlock which you were supposed to enter is directly behind you.
To use it, simply extract the file inside of the .zip into your saves directory. Then when the game has opened up, choose the "Load Game" option and load the save which takes place at Site Tau on 2015-10-13.
Give that a a try, since I personally had no problems reaching Tau in my playthrough.

As i see on the forum on Steam, many people (including me) suffer from this MAJOR BUG!
I hope, the developers can fix that soon!

Just load save data from the desent save file. And redo
RE: reporting a minor bug with the omni tool - Guest - 11-15-2015
For me using previous saves didn't help (WIN 7.0). The root for the problem was that after descending to the abyss, the omnitool got stuck on the screen after taking it and swiping the cage door lock. Finally I managed to take the omnitool and make it disappear by turning immediately to the right and waiting for it to disappear before swiping it on the cage door. After this, I also managed to get inside Tau. However, I had to redo the horrible journey to Tau four times...!
SOMA Omnitool bug at TAU - Orem - 11-19-2015
I know many threads have already been openned about this bug, but since nothing has happened or been updated, I felt obligated to start a new one.
I simply cannot use my omnitool after reaching TAU. The option to do so does not appear.
Please patch it as soon as possible! I have already replayed the last chapter and the bug is still there. No way to advance in the game.
Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you.

RE: reporting a minor bug with the omni tool - Guest - 12-16-2015
Had the same problem at Tau with omnitool. I loaded a previous game slot, when the omnitool was always in my hands. ran again all the way to Tau and didn't use the Healing Thingy. So I reached Tau with Omnitool still in my hands and could swipe it...
