| Summary | 0013196: Names of people accused of crimes appear and disappear depending if the person is in the fortress | ||||
| Description | When non-residents are accused of a crime by a witness, their name under the Justice --> Cold Cases tab will change from "somebody" to their specific name once they leave the fortress. When they visit the fortress again later, their name reverts back to "somebody" until they leave. Their name under the Cold Cases tab switches back and forth depending on whether they are currently visiting the fortress. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Interrogate a visitor (non-resident) who implicates someone of a crime. They can accuse either themselves or someone else 2. Click the relevant case under the Justice --> Cold Cases tab 3. The name of the accuser will appear as normal 4. The name of the accused person will appear as "somebody" if they are currently visiting the fortress 5. Once the accused person leaves the fortress, their name will revert from "somebody" to their specific name in the Cold Cases tab 6. Wait for the accused person to visit again in the future. At that point, under the Cold Cases tabs, their name will have changed from their specific name back to "somebody" until they leave again | ||||
| Additional Information | I noticed this happening specifically with cold cases. I'm not sure if it also happens with open cases, as I have nothing to test | ||||

Sorry, I double checked and realized I got the issue mixed up. The name of the witness remains unchanged regardless of whether they are at the fortress or not. However, the Cold Cases record indicates they "accuse" themselves when they are away, then "implicate" someone else when they are present. The status changes back and forth depending on whether they are visiting the fortress. The status of the case also bounces back and forth between "unsolved" and "unknown convict. I've posted screenshots if that helps: https://imgur.com/a/dwarf-fortress-bug-example-JKKeJQC |
