Recruiting officer stuck in a loop - Modded game.

Post by surferx » Fri, 31. Jul 20, 01:37

I clicked talk and she greets me 14 times with various greetings. The menu lists 1 - 3 and 5-6 " I want to hire a specialist" Option 4 is "I have to go". I clicked "hire a specialist" she repeats"which one?" 14 times. She repeats "how many?" 14 times. I choose one and she hires five managers for my organization. I think it is limited to 5 because that is all the room I have on the selected ship. Then "here you go" 5 times and "not enough space" the remaining 9 times. Then 14 "anything else?" Finally I get 14 different versions of goodbye.
Reloaded save and the same loop happens. I have to go back to an earlier save to correct.
I have the save file if needed.

If you have a savegame then please just upload it with your initial report. It would be pretty unusual for it not to be useful. :)

You didn't mention that your savegame was modified in your original post. Have you seem this problem in an unmodified game? I don't know what "NPCs Recovered" does, but it does sound like it could affect NPC behaviour.

Sorry for the oversight. I forgot to mention the mod. I'll try to reproduce it unmodded. Anyway it's not a gamebreaker, it just requires going back one save then corrects itself.

Hello friends,

"NPC, s Recovered by Gramston" does not affect the behavior of NPC, s. "NPC, s Recovered by Gramston" only adds NPC, s to the game (graphically). It does not affect the behavior of the script.

The error of the Recruiter of Litauen, who repeats the same phrase 14 times, has happened to me a couple of times when I have reloaded a saved game assuming that I am in the same recruiting office, or when I have accessed by teleportation.

The error is solved by leaving the station by boat and landing again.

I don't know the exact reason for the error, but since X4 version 3.30 I have not seen it again.

Best regards.
