Silver Dragon not following

Post by xcomcmdr »

Another little bug I ran into (it was a while ago, I was playing like mad, sorry for not reporting this ASAP ^^U)

The first time I've seen Silver Dragon, I :
1.Freaked out
2.Told him to follow me. He did.
3.Changed my mind after a couple of moves, and told him to stay where he was
4.Came back after much killing (all guards were dead/unconscious)
5.Told him to follow me Here's the bug : He didn't move at all.
6.Told him again to follow me. No change.
7.As a workaround, I told him to run for the exit 'cause it was safe now. It worked.

cheers. ;)

Hmm well I can't replicate this, but I've changed a setting in the order triggers just in case that was causing problems for you. Still tests fine for me.

Have you tried going in a circle around him to get in his line of sight?

well, yeah, I've move around (sidewalk in his sight, and moved away from him while looking back at him) to see if he was moving. Always right in his sight of view.

I'll try to replicate it. Normally, I still have a save before telling him to go for the exit (just for the glory of S. King's colorful language :mrgreen: ).

I ran into the same exact problem by chance, by doing the exact same thing up until step 7. I repeatedly tried tell him to stay and then follow again, and he just kept standing there, not moving, rather than following me when I ran away from him.

After a few tries I loaded a saved game from before I met him, then took out the remaining guards, and THEN met him and told him to go for the exit, which worked.
