| Additional Notes & Comments: |
The "Brand New Part" will also sometimes glitch out when using the toolbox (same loadout as above) on a generator for the first time. I'm unable to reproduce the issue, but the "Brand New Part" didn't engage and I kept the part but depleted the toolbox. Lost the "Brand New Part" once the game had concluded. No Skill Check prompted for the "Brand New Part" and it was as if the game fully ignored the part. It wasn't the last one in my inventory, either; it was probably 1/11 left within my inventory.

Steps to Reproduce
- Play as Survivor
- Equip a toolbox (it might have to be the Engineer's Toolbox)
- Add the part "Brand New Part" (it might have to also be paired with the Socket Swivels)
- Play / start a game
- Get to a generator and use the toolbox to repair the generator.
- The "Brand New Part" skill check will appear as supposed to, but the bugged out one should appear within 1-5 seconds after completing the "Brand New Part" skill check.
Explanation
Almost immediately after using a "Brand New Part" to repair a generator, you're prompted with a Skill Check that's less than 1 second long, without any Good or Great skill checks to hit. The circle / ring is empty, and it automatically explodes the generator. The loadout I've been running is: a very rare (purple) Engineer's Toolbox with the "Brand New Part" and Socket Swivels. You can stop the bugged out Skill Check by quickly switching to Left Mouse (M1) immediately after completing the "Brand New Part" skill check.
