When playing as Silver, you're unable to actuate psychokinesis mark with RT button, since Silver performing PK grab/push instead. Only once or twice i successfully actuated first PK mark on KDV somehow.

Also, sometimes, PK marks doesn't appear at all even if area has been cleared from enemies (first mark on CSC, for example).

Steps to Reproduce

1. Step on PK mark
2. Press and hold RT/R1
3. Expect PK push instead of PK mark touching

Expected Behavior

After actuating PK mark, new path is supposed to emerge

Are you playing at a high frame rate?

Are you playing at a high frame rate?

Mostly at 120FPS, but switching to 60 for PK mark after failing to actuate at 120 on mission doesn't help.

Tried to boot up fresh, launched CSC as Silver, and first two PK marks worked as supposed (first was passed at 60, ramped limiter to 120, passed second one). On third - no ground touch action. Then relaunched the game again, played at 60 only, no issues with PK marks at all.

So, probably, HFR may be a reason, tho, this bug doesn't seem to be 100% consistent. You could be either lucky and pass it, or you can't actuate it, or sometimes it could never emerge. Maybe something is building up with time and show up like that.

Tried Windows build (i7-13700k, RTX 5070Ti, Win11 23H2 22631.6199), played at 240FPS, didn't faced this kind of problem (at least on first sublevel of CSC), could be macOS-specific.

Somehow I overlooked this already closed issue, seems like it's working as for now on most refresh rates on Windows, but wasn't completely fixed on all platforms. Guess, we need somebody with Linux to check it out as well.
