Follow the steps for both Kelvin and Virginia and you should be able to respawn them both. However, if you can’t interact with them afterward, you did something wrong so try again with a different save. Moreover, if you can’t find Virginia’s parameter values (known bug), you’ll need to start to start a new save or go into a previous save to find her value.
You can do that by going to the SaveData.Json folder, hit CTRL+F and type \”TypeId\”:10. Note down where she is in the code, copy her ID, and paste it into the save files your want.
