Rescue the Mycologist in Expedition Alpha, unlock the Diffraction Driver after level 10 with resources, and look to X11-B for the Snowball Grenade.

| Your goal | Start with | Next action |
|---|---|---|
| Unlock Mycologist | Expedition Alpha rescue | Find the named assignment; complete the rescue before checking employee selection. |
| Unlock Diffraction Driver | Player level 10 plus resources | Inspect the weapon unlock and the price displayed in your current game. |
| Get Snowball or Shocklance | X11-B / Overtime Assignment | Use the unlock guide to distinguish the region requirement from the assignment requirement. |
| Recover missing achievement progress | Patch 2.0.1 notes | Check the installed update and compare the exact symptom with the fixed list. |
The October 20 release adds the Mycologist, the Diffraction Driver ion scattergun, the Snowball cryo grenade and X11-B, a challenging region on New Atlas’ moonlet. Population Control is a new normal mission; Expedition Alpha is the named rescue assignment for the new employee. They are separate activities.
Returning from Early Access? The HUB and Drop Pod have new designs, and Fulfillments track accomplishments with cosmetic rewards. Some earlier actions count retroactively and some do not, depending on which statistics the game already stored. Check the particular reward’s requirement before repeating a long mission.
The 1.0 notes say that making an upgrade’s pattern smaller reduces most of its stat effectiveness, while larger patterns improve it. That is a tradeoff between space and effect; compare the displayed values for the item you actually own.
Hold CTRL on keyboard or L3 on controller in the upgrade screen to inspect application order. The icons below the grid follow that order. Employee upgrades from the tree now have stats randomized per save, so another player’s screenshot may not match your values.
Patch 2.0.1, posted October 21, lists fixes for Cranius, Bunker Buster, relay-tower progress and Saxito-bag progress. An old 1.0 failure is not evidence that the fix failed in your current build.
The same patch still lists Drop Pod skins making certain light materials disappear until restart. Other launch visual symptoms need their own version check; they should not be treated as the same issue.
Mycopunk supports solo play and cooperative missions. Windows PC and PS5 are the relevant platforms for this release. Multiplayer support alone does not establish crossplay; check the current platform listing and your partner’s version before making a purchase or planning a session.
For unlock help, use the requirement for the reward you want. A player-level requirement for a weapon does not establish the level gate for a different mission or character.
