Thanks for reporting, yeah, this has been brought to our attention and we have fixed it, but it probably will not be fixed till the next release. It has to do with being on the Vicky path's but not on Shortcake's path, it still comes up. We just don't have enough problems in the release right now to justify a Hotfix (at least not at this time).
For the most part, there have only been 3-4 issues found and the issue you ran into is the most "game breaking" so to speak, but not enough to warrant releasing a patch. That could change, but for now we are waiting to see how it goes. If you have the knowledge yourself on how to edit the renpy scripts, you can fix this yourself, but that is just a suggestion. To fix it, just remove the "else:" you see here and shift the next block of script over to the left by one. Thanks
