Call of Cthulhu issues.

[VaeVictis]

Must be a separate glitch. The waves won't come. Nothing is happening.

Spoiler below!

I've defeated the sea creatures, but the officer near the door keeps firing. I started to hold onto the rail and nothing happens. I stood there for a good 10 minutes.

Looks like I've got some fiddlin' around to do.

Did you got the mission from the officer to shoot the blue lights on the horizon with the cannon? If not, you have to find his bandage suitcase first.

Nope. I got him the ammo and med kit, and the sea creatures stopped their assault, so it's just us guys. I haven't seen any lights on the horizon and whats-his-face just keep shooting aimlessly and yelling at me to defend the entrance ( although there is nothing attacking currently). I haven't heard anyone tell me to hang on to the rail because of the waves. I think maybe I missed the trigger for that or something? Dunno, wish I could go back and re-do the whole chapter.
Thanks for the help, by the way. You're awesome.
