| Summary | 0013338: npcs won't play avaliable musical instruments when joining player in music | ||||
| Description | When player character performs music, npcs will join in to sing/play instruments. But they only imitate instruments, even when instruments are in their inventory, tavern chest/floor, or are built furniture nearby (even when the furniture instrument is in the same row/column as the player character). | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | In adventure mode, have character with known musical forms requiring instruments (singer profession at character creation helps). Find tavern with musically inclined npcs, check chest for required instruments. If required instruments aren't in the chest, conjure them up. Set instruments' flag2.grown to true, to make sure elven npcs aren't refusing because of that. leave instruments in chest, floor, or give to npcs. perform musical form. They'll join in, but imitate the instruments instead of playing (or getting and playing) them. | ||||
| Additional Information | I gave particular instruments to the npcs that had imitated them before... even with the instruments in their inventories, they imitated the same ones. For stationary instruments, I expect they can be conjured and placed, but I forgot how. I found a tavern with a stationary instrument in it already, which is how I discovered the bug. I've only tried to reproduce in 1-3 of taverns, it might occur always instead of sometimes. | ||||
