Lee: Journal entry gets logged in unavailable quest

Open m0ezes opened this issue 5 months ago • 0 comments

Please agree to the following

Describe the bug

If the player talks to Lee after "cleaning" the Free Mine in chapter four, a journal entry gets logged under the "Banishment from the Old Camp" topic - regardless of whether or not the respective quest is available in the player's journal.

Expected behavior

The journal entry now appears in the "Search for the ULU-MULU" topic if the player has joined the New Camp or the Swamp Camp.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Disclaimer: I am not sure what the exact condition for this journal entry is.

  1. Be in chapter 4.
  2. Get the quest "Search for the ULU-MULU" from Ur-Shak.
  3. In order to find Ur-Shak's friend, go to the Free Mine and defeat all Guards.
  4. Leave the Free Mine. Gorn will talk to you (if all Guards are defeated).
  5. Go to Lee and tell him about your success.

Additional context

The problem here is that players who decided to join the New Camp or the Swamp Camp don't have the quest "Banishment from the Old Camp" available. This, in turn, means the player sees the "New Journal Entry" screen info but won't be able to find and read the entry because the respective topic (aka the quest) does not exist.

I think it would make sense if the journal entry appears in the "Search for the ULU-MULU" topic (at least for members of the NC and SC) since other entries regarding the Free Mine also are logged in this topic.

For reference: DIA_SLD_700_Lee.d (line 341):

B_LogEntry          (CH4_BannedFromOC,  "I informed Lee about the cleaning action, Gorn and I have performed in the Free Mine. He was very pleased.");
B_LogEntry          (CH4_BannedFromOC,  "Ich habe Lee über Gorns und mein Aufräumen in der freien Mine informiert. Er zeigte sich sehr zufrieden.");

* The German text needs a minor fix: "freien Mine" --> "Freien Mine"
