Turns out panning the camera up at the vent is NOT what prevents the 6pack-outlaw from entering your room and demanding loot. Just an observation, since sadly letting her in now causes a game over and I was trying to avoid this fate to unlock more tapes.
Or, at least not *staring* at the vent, waiting for something else that needs your attention, stops Cassidy.
Or maybe it is and the new mode has bugged the vents somehow? Take your pick, death by abs (nice) any way you slice it.
PS: I also have apparently done all the requirements to unlock 5 Nile tapes but still only have 4...
PPS: I can't let Poppi in on night club mode! Sam' is too slow and the night ends before Bunny can come say hi :<
