I am reposting a bug I posted on the third page second post of this thread: Unconfirmed Bug - Bug or something else? itemname_hatch_11D_03 found repeatedly in jungle | Page 2 | PiratesAhoy!
I beleive it to be caused by the same glitch, as I had picked up the pistol in the period before I recerted item additions/movements to fix the glitch. Posting as a new bug tracker entry at Pieter's suggestion, so it can be run down at some point.
Quoting earlier post:
In the attached saved game posted there, I am standing where I think the church protection quest to retrieve the items from the lost monk should be (which according to the walkthrough should be a book and gun Church Protection | PiratesAhoy! ).
However, no items are present currently.I had been here earlier, and had picked up a four barrel grapeshot pistol (which shouldn't exist, given the golden age period) and another item (forgot what it was). Both were picked up from the ground, with the hand icon.
I have tried talking to the monk, but I can't continue the quest. Consoling in the items worked fine and allowed the quest to complete (GiveItem2Character(PChar, "LongRifle_C"); GiveItem2Character(PChar, "book_exorcist"); ).
What I think happened is this: the game replaced the rifle with the 4 barrel grapeshot pistol, which appears 2 lines above the rifle in the items file.
I think this was probably caused by the same issue reported in this thread, as I picked up the 4 barrel grapeshot pistol after updating but before reverting the new and moved items. So the glitch happens in defined items as well as random items in the jungle, and maybe the two line difference between the rifle and 4 barrel grapeshot pistol isn't a coincidence.
