Awaiting Info Ambushes and tavernbrawls

[vojtaniz]

Sometimes I get into a tavernbrawl or I am recognised by someone who says I am a Pirate. In the second case, it also damages my reputation. The ringing bell sound meaning an ambush or a tavernbrawl sounds, but nobody appears. If it happens in a tavern, everybody stands up, and I canť talk to anybody. Happened already in Cartagena first tavern, Speightstown port, Port Royale tavern, and few other places. I have attached the save just after an "ambush" in a tavern in Port Royale.

Which exact modpack version? Please mention the number and date too.

A Tavern brawl should generate a bunch of enemies for sure.
Being recognised as a pirate does not as far as I remember, but it should turn everyone hostile.

 

[Levis]

please also include a compile.log from when this happened .

Doesn't sound like it.

He's reporting two independent issues:
1. No enemies appear when a Tavern Brawl is triggered; I find this very strange, but could perhaps happen if there are too many characters already loaded in the location (???)
2. Something with being recognized as a pirate (I'm not clear on what the actual problem is there)

 

[Levis]

@vojtaniz could you try to trigger something like this again and post the compile.log file afterwards?

Problem is this: Somebody starts talking to me, says that I am a pirate. In the top left corner, text "ALARM, AN AMBUSH!" appears. I would expect some enemies to fight, but nothing happens and since then, I can't talk to anybody in that location.

PROGRAM\DIALOGS\Enc_Walker.c this is the code that gets triggered:

    case "alarm":
       if (NPChar.sex == "man") NPChar.greeting = "Gr_alarm_m";
       else NPChar.greeting = "Gr_alarm_f";
       LAi_CharacterPlaySound(NPChar, NPChar.greeting);
       PlaySound("AMBIENT\TOWN\Alarm.wav");//MAXIMUS: town's alarm-bell
       LAi_group_SetRelation(LAI_DEFAULT_GROUP, LAI_GROUP_PLAYER, LAI_GROUP_ENEMY);
       LAi_group_SetRelation(LAI_GROUP_GUARDS, LAI_GROUP_PLAYER, LAI_GROUP_ENEMY);
       LAi_group_SetRelation(GetCurrentCitizenGroup(), LAI_GROUP_PLAYER, LAI_GROUP_ENEMY); // ccc Dec 05 alerts locals
       Ambush("Soldiers", 4, LAI_GROUP_ENEMY, LAI_GROUP_NEUTRAL, ""); // 4 cops attack you

       ChangeCharacterReputation(PChar, -3);
       Diag.CurrentNode = "get_out";
       DialogExit();
     break;

I can think of no reason why that shouldn't work though.

 

[vojtaniz]

Here is the new save with the compile log just after the ambush happened.

 

[ANSEL]

I just have the same bug, so here are my logs, a big error log.
It was not a tavern brawl, but related I think. At the moment
I put my foot at Port Royal harbor, the guards got crazy, starting
to kill all naval officers around.
Maybe the good old friend @Levis mentioned in post5.

Try the console command I suggested in that other thread.

 

[vojtaniz]

If you mean the Execute console command triggered by F12, I have tried it many times, doesn't help.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

I mean the specific command I suggested in that other thread.

 

[Levis]

If you mean the Execute console command triggered by F12, I have tried it many times, doesn't help.

Add the line @Pieter Boelen posted to the console.c file after this

ref pchar = GetMainCharacter();
    ref ch;
    int i;
    int limit;

then use F12 to execute it ingame
