"I could not place comment on the main anomaly section, so I shot it here: why is Ameba not in the Organic Anomalies section? Why is that section empty? Shouldn't be the spiky puffball (that other people refer to as rusty hair) be added to that section?

Also I encountered an anomaly in Pripyat Underground that does not resemble of any of the anomalies listed on their respected page. The anomaly inflicts strong bleeding damage and looks like an aerial vortex. I made few screenshots, though they do not perfectly represent its ingame look."


 * Two points:

""why is Ameba not in the Organic Anomalies section?""


 * A: Because we are not sure if it is an organic anomaly.


 * Regarding the unlisted anomaly you discovered in PU:


 * It's a "swirly thing", right? More than one too, right? With snorks that you can entice into right? So entice a snork in - get a spawn - and work backwards through the textfiles to establish what it is...
 * (HINT: you'll probably come to the conclusion that its control file is "isparenie.ltx" - then you need to work out why its analogous appearances in compound anomalies such as Anomaly Fields DO NOT logically relate to that file)
 * Like some of the components of Lost Alpha, it isn't always easy to establish what is what.
 * I asked the devs to clarify this years ago. Big silence for my troubles. Go figure.
