Fixed Jack sparrow - Short Jack Gold's Identity Crisis

[Talisman]

In Sao Feng's Missing Bodyguards I have just talked to Short Jack Gold in Guadeloupe Tavern.

He appears to have applied for a Gender Reassignment

I hope the operation is successful and wish him all the best

It's another of these armored character models, similar to what I found with Skyliner in the Jack Sparrow Animists sidequest before.
Armoured characters don't use different initModels.c entries anymore and those have been deleted.
That also means that characters directly assigned to those models without armour don't work so well.

This in the Jack Sparrow character init TemQuest.c file should help:

   ch.model   = "pirat15"; // PB: This
   ch.sex = "man";
   LAi_NoRebirthEnable(ch);
   ch.sound_type = "male_citizen";
   ch.location   = "none";
   ch.location.group = "sit";
   ch.location.locator = "sit7";
   ch.Dialog.Filename = "Short Jack_dialog.c";
   ch.nation = ENGLAND;
   GiveItem2Character(ch, "commonarmor"); // PB: Also this
   ch.equip.armor = "commonarmor"; // PB: And this

While that requires starting a new game, these lines through console should do the trick on a savegame:

   ch = CharacterFromID("Short Jack");
   SetModelFromID(ch, "pirat15");
   GiveItem2Character(ch, "commonarmor");
   ch.equip.armor = "commonarmor";

I have just had a thought :-

Will this also affect some of the characters in @Bartolomeu o Portugues stories - Assassin & Bartolomeu - who wear armour.

I am thinking of Nicholas Butcher in the Assassin Story - Bartolomeu and Roche Brasaliano in the Assassin Story -

Johan Elting in the Bartolomeu Story - Daniel Montbars in the Bartolomeu Story.



Can't think of any others at the moment.

Could indeed be....

I don't even know why suddenly now this has become apparent.
Don't think it should be related to the other armour problem we're having lately though.

EDIT: Actually, looks like those Bartolomeu and Assassin characters you mentioned are all OK.
None of them get assigned an "_A#" model straight away.
Did change a few lines of code to have them match their armour-equipping with the example posted above.

I did find one other similar error though: Catalina the Pirate in the Devlin Opera.
Now similarly corrected.

Calling this one Fixed as well.
