Project P.I.T.T. Vacuum Not Working: Diagnostic Checklist
Vacuum Not Working: Diagnostic Checklist: Loose products remain outside a proposed recovery route? Compare one reachable product before adding a large group.
Loose products remain outside a proposed recovery route? Compare one reachable product before adding a large group. A failed pickup is not enough to assign an exact distance limit or assume every tool can be collected. These are diagnostics, not a guaranteed fix.

Separate the symptom from the assumed cause
Loose products remain outside a proposed recovery route. Keep the cleanup target visible and isolate it from unrelated inventory. Older players use Vacuum for late-stage delivery and recovery; current capacity and range are not published.

Patch and evidence boundary
Older full-release Steam player evidence uses the Vacuum for moving products in late progression. Range and capacity remain unverified. If the failure persists, retain a before-and-after capture rather than asserting a missing level, an undocumented key or a numerical setting.
