San d'Oria Mission 1-3 "Save the Children"

bigpurpleharness commented 4 years ago

Feedback or issue :

When repeating Sandy Mission 1-3 "Save the Children" you do not obtain a key item after finishing the BCNM. When performing this mission for the first time, it works correctly. Upon repeating, you get the option to fight in the BCNM, however when finish and checking the hut again for the key item, it simply offers the fight to you again. Speaking to the town guard warrants the, "Go to Ghelsba" speech as if you have just accepted the mission.

Did you get a cs event at Arnau in Northern San d'Oria during the repeat of the mission?

I also need the character name that is not getting the key item.

bigpurpleharness commented 4 years ago

Character name is Alaik and I tried doing that although its said its not needed. It does let you progress past that point as you can enter and defeat the orcs.

Looks like it will only give the KI if the mission status variable is set to 2, and that NPC is the only place I see it being set to 2. ~~Is your character available in game tonight? if not~~ I will try and catch you on discord tomorrow.

I'll be on around 7pm CST tonight, I'll retry talking to all of the NPCs again and let you know.

Okay so some odd things happened. I rechecked all NPCs, and when getting to Arnau I got the mission completion cutscene (Where he thanks you for completing the mission, not where he tells you what's going on.)

I rechecked the guard after thinking maybe that was all that's needed to flag it as finished with no luck. Attempting to perform the fight again after getting the completion cutscene awarded the KI.

So in short, the mission is done, and I have no idea what was going on.

I made an alteration to the BCNM end scene but I was trying to catch you to check your variable state before you went back in. We never caught up with each other so I was unable to do that.

Arneu has multiple related scenes - one can only play AFTER you've cleared the BCNM, its story/flavor text stuff. The other is intended to be seen During the mission before the BCNM.

Then when you repeat the mission, the code allows you to go straight to the BCNM without seeing him again even though its expecting a variable set by him... So the fact you got the "after cs" hints that your variable never set, you basically needed to see him multiple times there to proceed "normally". The half-fix I pushed makes the bcnm not care - if you can enter, you can win, as opposed to entering repeatedly without credit.

To fully fix the entire mission need re-evaluated to account for the after cs and the correct repeat behaviors.

(I strongly suspect you get a slightly different set of instructions for repeats on retail, and the variable increment is different)
