After killing one of the aliens and the screen stating I earned 100 nanosuit catylst points, the catylst count is still stuck at zero in the nanosuit customization screen. I guess the 1.2 patch didn't fix all catylst problems.
Additional info...
The objective where this started happening is: "Destroy the Spore Conduit: Access the spore silo". Before this objective, the catylst count was incrementing.
I have since stopped playing waiting for a patch to fix the problem.
