The short version
The Wetlands objective involves locating the broken pipes, learning the required repair item, crafting it, and returning to the generator building. The complete 1.0 location map is still being verified before publication.
Why players get stuck
Community reports show that players can reach the building before finding the clue that teaches the repair recipe. The finished guide will therefore show the intended discovery order and every pipe on one annotated map.
Verification checklist
We are confirming the number of pipes, exact 1.0 marker positions, recipe trigger, required machine, and what changes inside the generator room after completion.
Current version 1.0 location leads
A recent Japanese walkthrough reports four broken pipes: one near the reservoir approach, one at the right side of the transporter hall, one in the ore-rich lower-right cave, and one in the coal-rich western Wetlands area. It also reports that three stone monuments reveal the repair-kit recipe and that the Industrial Shaper crafts it. Older English community posts sometimes refer to only three pipes, so these are clearly labeled location leads until all four are reproduced on the current English build.
What to do before assuming the quest is broken
Inspect the stone monuments, confirm that the repair item appears in the correct crafting machine, and revisit each sub-area rather than searching only around the generator building. A discovered pipe and a repaired pipe are different checklist states. If the objective still does not advance after four repairs, record the game version, objective text, map, and inventory before reporting a bug or loading an earlier save.
