Known Issues
Time fixing mini-game Soft Lock
The Time fixing mini-game, particularly the tutorial planet in Clank's Subconsciousness, are ether extremely difficult or entirely impossible due to missing textures(see below). The game is only playable beyond Clank's Subconsciousness by bypassing the levels/mini-games using Cheat Engine.
Hover Boots and Rail-Grinding Collision Issues
When using Hover boots with 'boost' pads occasionally you're stopped instantly on the pad leading to an unexpected death. All pads are usable and all areas requiring a boost pad are reachable, but many attempts may be required(particularly for the final boss fight).
When rail-grinding on metal rails specifically, after a jump you occasionally fall through the rail. This occurs most notably at two points. The first is at Planet Torren IV(Molonoth Fields), after a lightning trap mid-way through the rail-grinding scene. To Avoid the first collision issue wait for either being hit by the trap, or a frame or two before to jump. Be sure to hold jump for as long as possible to avoid the trouble collision point in the rail. The second area is at the Great Clock during the final fight scene. The collision point is directly after starting the rail-grinding around the first two trap bombs. To avoid these collision points simply do not jump for the first 2 bombs.
