Amusing bug or cunning feature?

I'm running build 12 and I'm a noob so please be patient. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

When I first entered Quebredas Costillas the Artos Voisey script started to run, as far as I could tell, but it was a bit difficult to be sure as I was cowering by the gate like a wee timorous beastie, unable to draw my sword.

My shore crew (three bosuns with 10 melee and conquistadors or F100s) then sliced me up like I was a fine leg of ham. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

Was this a deliberate mutinous rebellion pre-arranged by piratical officers or a glitch with amusing side-effects? Either way it wasn't a problem, I just reloaded and told my shore party to get lost until I'd picked up Artos. I was quite impressed by how vicious my lads were though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/duel_pa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ixi" border="0" alt="duel_pa.gif" />

On a more prosaic note I have an unfulfillable cargo quest to Isla Muelle. I think I may have forgotten about it and left it for more than a month of game time. Anyway, I can't talk to the storekeeper in Isla Muelle about the cargo and none of the other storekeepers will talk business either. Is there a way I can fix this?

Thanks for an amazing set of mods mateys, if my wife divorces me it's your fault. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
 
I have sometimes had officers attacking me as well. I haven't got the slightest idea why or when that is caused. It is no intentional feature; it seems like a completely random bug. I haven't heard of that happening for a long time though.

It is intentional that you can't draw your sword the first time in QC. You shouldn't be attacked though. I know there is a bug with the start of the Artois/Nigel quests, but I will have a fix for that in the next modpack update. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

I'm afraid I don't know how to fix the cargo quests problem. I believe it is intentional that you can't do more of these quests after you failed one, but I don't know how to reset that. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

I certainly hope that won't happen. I would hate to have that on my conscience! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
 
Thanks for the reply Pieter, no worries about the cargo quest thing, I should pay better attention (and pirate hunting is more fun anyway)

I'm looking forward to the next officer attack now, it's fun! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Ah well, should be plenty of warning, I reckon she'll trash the laptop and take the golf clubs to my car first <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
