Fixed Smuggling Officer: Dialog Node Stuck

[Talisman]

In Beta 4 Public release (2nd April)

I did some smuggling on Bonaire - where I asked my officer (tavern hired - not from tavern keeper )to check the beaches,- he came back a day later saying that there were too many patrols and he could now check the beaches. So I had to talk to a soldier instead, and then go and meet the smugglers on the beach.

Have now gone to Barbados - to do some more smuggling - but whenever I talk to my officer I get the same dialog about the patrols & being unable to check the beaches. ( none of the other officer dialogs appear).

It looks as though the officers dialog has got stuck. - perhaps he just likes beaches .

No error log

In PROGRAM\QUESTS\quests_common.c add that last line marked PB:

    case "Send Officer back in slot":
       if(DEBUG_SMUGGLING>0) trace("SMUGGLING officer becomes passenger again");
       NPChar = characterFromID(PChar.quest.Contraband.officerID);
       DeleteAttribute(NPChar,"StoredFellow");
       AddPassenger(PChar, NPChar, 0);
       LAi_SetOfficerType(NPChar);
       SetOfficersIndex(Pchar, -1, sti(NPChar.index)); // PB: Use index instead of reference
       NPChar.dialog.currentnode = "hired";       // PB: Reset his dialog
     break;

Doesn't fix your current guy, but hopefully will prevent it for future ones.

You have a savegame just prior to him returning? If so, you should be able to test from that one.

- that works - tested on savegame before he returned from scouting the Bonaire beaches.
