Blush appears after the 2 of them went out for 8 hours. So you could have either wandered around town or rested. Either way, they don't appear until 8 hours from when Aesdale left with her. Which, if you think about it, is a long lunch...

Right. However, If I slept at the inn (8 hours) only aesdale appears, no blush. Conversation is broken since she's not around to add her bit. Have to go upstairs immediately and Cntrl+t until the 8 hours are up to have them both appear. Same as in version .3/.4

Strange, I tried to recreate this bug and I have had no luck duplicating it. She always appears.

Moin, moin!
I had a problem with the quest in Pine Bluff (V53a). After the mage has received the Gauntlet from Icar, he disappeared and was not seen, found since then.
Suna Seni stays neutral when her bunch is going to attack.
I wonder why Bart is not in his bureau? And this is more for help, but I can not find Ander in Selgaunt to finish the quest with the new farmers.
Two and a half travel points in Selgaunt are broken.

Ander and crew are in front of the building but you are on the side. You have to move yourself around to him. I may see about moving them closer to you in the next version.

Shadow's comment is just her standard line when you are in a dungeon area. She seems to say it more often than other characters say their line here.

Both area transitions now fixed for next version.

BTW, if you are saying you can't find Ander after talking to him on the docks, go to the inn on the same map (the one at the top of the map that looks has stairs going down into the inn). He will be there.

Hello Sire!
Hmm, in area TC3510 are sixteen persons but nobody called Ander or Dale. Does the bar boss in the slums appear only to special NPCs in the group? I have been three times in Sunderham, two times without permission, and in V53a with one, but never find the artifact for the halfling in the White Knight. Missed I a special dialogue or a location? Btw the cleric there did not recognize his student in my group I promised to search for. Candella (V53) does not get the icon on her portrait when she claims to be weary. After the quest with the three sisters a cleric send my group to Piney Bluff to investigate a mysterious stone. I found nobody there who would talk about that thing. Is this an other quest, maybe not ready for now, or does it lead to the story with the gauntlet?

Not sure if I understand half of what you are asking.

Ander and party will only be in TC3510 if you have already talked to them outside near where you arrived. Otherwise, they are still outside.

Bar boss in slums? You mean Bart? That quest isn't finished yet.

White Knight is a Suderham inn. The gnome inside is asking you to get him an item that doesn't exist. It is a trick to get you to go against the slavers.

Candella - We have done nothing to change how being tired works. She should show icon if really is tired.

Mysterious stone - quest isn't finished.

Merci.
That was all I am asking for. I do not know if I talked to Ander or he talked to me but he said, that he would take the group to an inn and vanished in the big white building near by. Only the guard is standing at the docks, who told me, that there is somebody looking for farmers. I talked to this man, but now I cannot find Ander in TC3510 so the man in the other inn has nothing to say to me. Quest end.

I see the problem now.

The global that spawns Ander and folk needs to be set at "3" but if you talk to Phodor to get the quest, he sets it to "4". So if you then go to TC3510, Ander won't spawn. I'll set it so he spawns either way. To fix your game, use the CLUA and do this:

CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("TCRescuedTownFolk","GLOBAL",3)

That will spawn them in the inn. It shouldn't mess up any dialogs with Ander but I need to test it.

I checked this with TCRescuedTownFolk set to 3 and Ander comes up with " We go to an inn..." and vanishes again. So the value has to be restored to 4 before I could talk to him with success.

I'm using .53 with patch A. I haven't been around to see if these were mentioned in other threads, but I thought I should post in here instead of resurrecting an old thread that addressed an issue in the past as I did with the resting troubles.

Doors to nowhere
I've played through the Sunless Citadel so far, and noticed a lot of doors to nowhere, which open into a void that can't be seen or walked into, but I thought perhaps that was supposed to represent collapsed passages. But now I'm in Saltmarsh and I see the same thing in one of the houses there (Deril Estate). Are these intentional (perhaps meant to be closets?) or areas that are unfinished, or something else? I'd make those doors unopenable to cut down on the confusion.

Erky's spell selection
Erky has "Find Familiar" in his spellbook. Before I erase it, is there some reason for this that I don't understand (roleplaying reasons, perhaps)? Since only the protagonist can cast that spell, it seems to have no purpose there.

Nephelium armour description
If you have Rurik make a set of plate out of the nephelium ore, and choose not to use any gem for colour, he will agree to make it, but the resulting armour's description states that you did, in fact, choose to use a gem to tint the armour blue.

Other things that I'm not sure about. I picked up a couple of wardstones at some point during the Citadel adventure or maybe before, and I'm not sure what they're for. Maybe I already unwittingly used them, like that key I got from the kobold queen. I'm sure I must have used it to open a door, but I don't know which door it was. At any rate, do I need those wardstones anymore?

Door can go anywhere. In the Citadel, most are just closets. The Deril Estate is the same as in Trademeet and that interior doorway is just a closet. These are used all over SoA but you have probably played it enough times that you don't even bother opening those doorways anymore, so you forgot.

Erky has the spell just like any other mage. You can remove it if you want. When I created him, I just selected random 1st level spells.

The splint mail has the correct description text:

"With the addition of the special Nephelium ore and a small blue gem already at the smithy, Rurik has added ..."

The plate and chain mail are now fixed. Thanks for finding that error.

Actually, I've never yet played BG2. I just finished BG1 (using Tutu) a couple of weeks ago, and thought I'd give Classic Adventures a try before getting into the second BG game. I like it so far.

What about those wardstones, though? Not needed if I've finished the Citadel? I'm past the haunted house now.

Glad I could help with the one genuine issue.

The only wardstone I can think of is the one Charrna has for you to enter the Silver Princess area. You can sell it to the Book Merchant in Saltmarsh.

Okay, that accounts for one of the stones. I temporarily had Charrna in my party before I decided to go to the Citadel. But I somehow acquired two identical wardstones. I'll just get rid of them.

Another thing I've noticed is that Dirbert complains about my selecting during the normal course of the game, seemingly more than he should. "Hey! There's nothing left for you to hear! Pick someone else, okay?" Shadow does this too, to a lesser extent. "You really enjoy this, don't you?" I'm not just clicking on them over and over. I use both Dirbert and Shadow as scouts to check ahead while stealthed, and I switch between them trying to get them hidden in shadows (takes several tries), but even though I've clicked Dirbert (f6), then Shadow (f6), then Dirbert again (f6), he acts like I'm just clicking him over and over. Perhaps this is just built into the engine? If so, what's the name of that sound file, so I can replace it with a blank one? As good as the voice acting is, I don't like being told I'm doing something intentionally when I'm not.

While playing the game, go to "Options" then to "sound" and then to "character sounds" and turn the "selection sounds" option down to seldom or never, depending on your preference :) .

I know of that option, but I like most of the sounds. I'd really rather deal with this particular issue than cut them all out entirely.

Thank you, good Sam. I've replaced both TCDIRB23.wav and TCDIRB22.wav (another one that annoyed me) with TCDIRB12.wav and TCDIRB11.wav. I had to find a player that would play whatever codec they used so I could find suitable replacements, but it's much better now. Still hard to believe it's intended behaviour for him to say "I understood you the first 20 times you selected me" in the heat of battle when it's in fact the first time I've told him to attack smuggler E, but...
