Goat - weird goal updating bug

[chrisssf]

Ok, so i went to the Llama high temple thing and Dark Templar PM'd me to say go to the voodoo place to talk. He gave me his offer and i thought to hell with that, so i punched him in the back of the head (once cause im cool), so he died, now the goal just keeps randomly updating (til i change level).

Pretty minor, but it is annoyingly weird.

Hmm.


P.S. I *just* realised this was in the wrong section. Sorry.

This section will be find, it's kind of spoilerish anyway.

Sounds like an annoying bug, I'll take a look at it, but help a brother out: What does the goal update to say?

[chrisssf]

It just flashes "Goal updated" until you change level. I'm pretty sure the goals update fine though, its just odd. If it helps, the guy in charge oof the voodoo place was also dead, and the alarm was going off

[Jonas]

I would really like to know what the actual goal says. Could you look in the goals log for me and tell me what it says please?

[Jonas]

Wait nm, I think I got it. Thanks for reporting, this'll be fixed in 1.0.1

Also a little glimpse behind the scenes, here's the header for the script section where I found the bug:

// -------------------------------------------
// Conclude the cult missions (ARGH MY BRAIN!)
// -------------------------------------------

To expand on this, I *think* this is meant to disappear when you either a) kill dark templar or b) tell abomination about goat city, but the goal does not disappear. Not only have i killed dark templar, I told Abom and he gave me 2k credits, yet the goal stays.

The opposite also holds. I defected to the goats, and the sidequest for telling abomination where the goats live stayed active even after he turned hostile towards me. Obviously there was no way to actually exploit this, so it's a rather minor bug.

[chrisssf]

Oh, and although the goal updated thing disappears when you go to different levels, if you return to the voodoo shop, the goal update thing starts going crazy again. this, of course is a bit minor

[Jonas]

Thanks but don't worry about it, I've already fixed it.
