SovietSailor Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 So, something annoying I noticed today. Playing through "Ghost Town Gunfight" again, I noticed Trudy was acting a little....off. I've tested in a vanilla save with no mods, and it still acts as such. A little timeline of the issue. 1. Talk to Ringo in the gas station, telling him that everything is all set (all optional objectives completed). Sunny comes in, gives me the dynamite, etc. 2. Running down the hill to take positions against Joe Cobb's gang, I notice that Trudy is just.....standing there. Doing nothing, not even having her shotgun equipped. When the fighting starts, she scowls and shouts and stuff, but that's all. BUT...... This only happens in a single, uninterrupted playthrough; if I play from waking up in Doc Mitchell's house to the fight itself without quitting or reloading a save. If I save right before I start the fight, then reload that save, Trudy proceeds as normal. Any ideas on how to fix this? I have a hunch it has something to do with navmeshes, but that wouldn't make much sense in a vanilla playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SovietSailor Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Well, I did a reinstall, and its STILL doing this. What an odd little problem this is. Good to know its not any of my mods doing it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SovietSailor Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Anyone? Anyone at all? Come on, the solution is probably staring me in the face.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SovietSailor Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 I tested it on another computer (my brother's, to be precise), also completely unmodded, and it STILL acts like this. Dicking around in the console, it appears as though their relevent packages aren't automatically "activated" and must be "re-activated" by either killing and then resurrecting them in the console, or reloading a save (such as exiting the gas station for the fight).

MarchUntoTorment Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Almost certainly a bug in the vanilla game. At any rate, Trudy's not that much of a force in the fight and you don't really need her help - I wouldn't go through that much effort trying to fix this. If you're worried about her dying, 'setessential' is a command that I swear is made of gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SovietSailor Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 But......but.....my immersions......:{ Eh, you're probably right. And its not like she won't fight, it just requires a little extra tweaking beforehand. Its still a bloody oddity, though, i've never had this sort of thing happen to my game before.

SovietSailor Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Also reposting to confirm that one of the Goodsprings settlers does similarly, only it doesn't respond to reloading saves. Blech. Someone ought to have a solution, somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
