Brand New Parts not working since Portrait of a Murderer
DESCRIPTION
Step 1 : Boot the game
Step 2 : Play as survivor in a public match
Step 3 : Equip any toolboxes (Brown, yellow, green, commodious, Alex's, and purple toolbox) and add Brand New Part add-on. You can also skip your second add-on or add anything else, the brand new part still won't work as intended.
Step 4: Repair a generator and pay attention to the difficult skillchecks (there should be two)
Step 5: Hit one of the skillchecks and notice that the repair progression bar isn't progressing at all. The toolbox speed is applied since the bar turns yellow, but the brand new part is avoided, since there's no extra +5% of progression for each difficult skillcheck.
Step 6: After toolbox is depleted, BNP disappears and as you check the repair bar, you notice there were no sudden progress.

- - Tried on different generators located in every realm, I started this study since the Portrait of a Murderer release. Doesn't work on any maps, tried different generators too and the brand new part doesn't affect progress.
- Frequency of the issue: All the time. During every match. I tested this on Ps5 and Switch, on both consoles, it seems like BNP stopped working
