Hi again,
Had this problem last night and not sure what to do...
Went to the Tavern (cant remember where i was) and took on a mission from a pirate there to go and 'liberate' some gold at Oxbay. I accepted.
Then a minute later i asked the barman if there was any missions i could do such as security for merchant (smugglers) usually to Leviathon beach or where ever it is. Indeed I was offered that mission to escort a merchant to the usual place... but for the sum of 20,000 gold! Normally its 2000 at most. So i had to accept of course. I thought I would repair, arm and upgrade my ship for the potentially dangerous Oxbay mission with the dodgey pirate fella that all my senses were saying not to trust. So off I go with both ships following behind me to Leviathan Rock, which was only the next Island away. When i got tehre I found 2 pirates ships in the area and after a long battle they sunk my Pirate guy (who was coming with me for the ride). Myself and my other merchant chap sank both Pirates. OK i thought... not really bothered about the Oxbay gold thing... here comes an easy 20 big ones! I anchor, go to the beach and no sign of merchant. I go back to ship, check again. He's right beside me (well his ship is) its 100% intact and he's part of my convoy. I tried for ages... even went to map, sailed around the Island and landed again. But after about 5 attempts I gave up. So what happens now? Does this merchant remain part of my convoy now until he gets sunk? Or how do i get rid of him? Any more importantly why wont he pay up?! Its not as if he's done a runner.
Very strange.
Also at some point (not sure when this happened) I found that I have enough rum for something like 1,529 days! I have a full crew of 90 or so and about 4 kegs of rum in my hold. I dont know what or how it happened but its more than likely a bug. Is it the same bug that made the mercahnt offer me 20,000 to escort him to a neighbouring island?
And what happens now in my quest book with these two now usless quests. The pirate is dead, the smuggler has gone awry for some reason known only to himself... its all a bit of a mess at the minute!
There should be a better journal and qyuest book next time by the way. I would like to know what and how many ships i've boarded.. the amount of loot taken etc. All these details are important for the immersion of the game. I hope in AOP they will do a better job of it.
