PacBot in Great Bend (minor spoiler)

Ruvan24

First time out of the vault
Has anybody been able to finish great bend, the first robot mission, without killing the pac bot that has been crushed? The walkthrough says you should be able to. I found the one robot who has a text icon on him. Unfortunately, he starts shoots me as soon as i see him, and the one time i talked to him, there was a gambling screen for his 20 small energy cells. Does this somehow trigger not having to kill the pacbot? I really want to finish the mission without destroying it... I have triednot killing one o r the other, avoiding even detecting the pacbot, etc. Any help wouild be appreciated!
 
Lol. I remember finding that 1 robot that you could gamble with. But no, there are no triggers within the mission that designates gambling making you unable to complete the mission, bug possibly but not likely as I gambled with it and finished the mission.

Hate to break it to you but looking at the level there is no way to finish the mission without killing all the robots. The victory condition is Robots (R) have less than 1 alive anywhere, and the crushed pacification bot is grouped with (R). If you wanted, I suppose you could edit it so that the victory condition is excatly 1 alive or less than 2 or that the crushed pacification bot is not part of player group (R). So barring you edit the victory conditions or the pacification bot's affiliation, no you can't finish the mission without killing it.
 
Thanks for the reply - it is a pain, bc i've had other ppl tell me they've finished it w/o killing it. Even guilers walkthrough describes it. I wonder whether the patch changed it...? I'm playing 1.27
