Omicron Scenario - Cannot Progress

[chasteleth]

Hi, I guess this is more of a game logic issue than a technical problem but it is preventing me from continuing the game nonetheless.

In the Omicron area of the game I think I have triggered a situation in which you cannot progress. In the power room section I took damage from the enemy while attempting to retrieve the required item. After getting the item I had all 3 items that were needed. Previous to this I had used the two health charging arm hole things in the area, so now I was left unable to sprint and unable to regain the health.

In the next part of the game in North Hall you have to sprint run to the next room as you are chased by a monster, obviously now at this part I am unable to sprint. It seems that the monster is scripted to always chase you at that part, so I can't progress.

As the game doesn't allow you to return to a save beyond the most recent one, I think I'm now completely stuck.

Are you able to advise any way to resolve this beyond restarting from the beginning of the game? I'm hoping I haven't been stupid and completely missed something that would help.

Thanks!
