escort quest glitch
Posted: Sun Jan 20, 2013 9:30 am
Hi all,
old tome2 player, I discovered tome4 a couple of weeks ago, and I am having a blast. the game is relatively bug-free, except for a few glitches I noticed. here comes one:
currently clearing dreadfell, my dwarf summoner entered dungeonlevel 6, where he was given an escort quest for a lost sun paladin. As a summoner, I find that escort quest are usually pretty easy. however, next to the staircase were several monsters, which I did not want to fight melee ( as always). I did not want to phas door away either, as it would surely mean the demise of my escortee, so I decided to go back to dungeon level 5, as the paladin was next to me, he would follow me, as my summons normally do.
what happened:
-the escort quest was flagged as failed in my quest log, saying I abandonned the paladin to his death (even thought the paladin was still alive by my side)
- I got a new quest, exactly similar to the previous one, for level 5 of the dungeon this time.
I suspect the code is made to automatically fail the quest when leaving the level (whatever the mean) and to create a new quest when an escortee is present in the level when entering it.
I wanted to attach my save file, but could not find it on my hard drive. Here is the dump though:

Please let me know if anything is unclear.
Thanks!
