There's a bug with the quest A Delicate Situation. If you have party members Luthien gets stuck in her pathing and the game doesn't progress. Is there a way to keep the party members while advancing the quest?
there's no way. for starters goblins and elves are enemies, you shouldn't be able to just walk there with 2 gobbos. the fact party members can block quests is a known issue with RPGM scripting, it happens with domestic issues if you have the imp with you
This was a quest from a long time ago, so I don't remember it clearly. Everything I'm telling you will be based on the walkthrough. After slaying the bear, you get ambushed by goblins. Then go back to Shakala's camp. You only find Bhrute as the only survivor. You're supposed to go to the Goblin King's Stronghold. You can enter the goblin valley, you can even clear most of the stronghold, you just need to not aggro the boss, if you want to keep them in your party
so you were clearing the goblin stroghold but instead of killing the boss
you decided to go back,and when you found out you got to keep the goblins in the party,
you decided to roll with the outcome, till it fucked up your game, although it was something to be expected,
you decided the risk was worth the "reward". You have to live with the consequences of your decisions.
If you do not know how to progress the quest "A Delicate situation" while keeping Shakala and Bhrute in the party, that's fine. But, you are not the Tinkerer, so what you think is the "spirit of the quest" is merely your opinion. Your opinion does not give you the right to tell other people how they should play the game. I do not care for your opinion and I certainly did not ask.
If you have nothing useful to offer, would you kindly keep your opinions to yourself?
that's the point... the game has been tested by Tinkerer, his patrons and players that reported bugs.... you know what they have in common? no one thought to leave the goblin stronghold without killing the king. if someone else had this "bug" it would've been reported already. You know what's the first rule of modding, using cheats and exploits ? "if it breaks the game, it's on you"
NO ONE CARES AND NO ONE ASKED
you did.
Like I said earlier I didn't come here to hear other people's opinion of what's should or shouldn't be a thing in the game. Frankly I don't care, which is why I didn't reply to Still996 until they pressed the issue about something not being in the "spirit of the quest". It's a single player game, I don't care if people choose to use cheats, no one should be telling you what you shouldn't be doing. I'm here to see if anyone has a solution to the issue in my quest. That's it
the solution is to be smart about using exploits. The only thing that can be done on Tinkerer's side is make sure players can't leave the stronghold while the goblin king is alive
