Alteration to Efficiency Expert Pither's Beat Up Aeon Mission

[Rudra]

In the 'Alone in the Darque' arc from Efficiency Expert Pither, the second mission sends you after Dr. Aeon. It always sends you to the Aeon Corp. building in Grandville, but the entrance popup says Cap au Diable. I request changing the entrance popup to say Grandville since the mission always sends you to the same door in Grandville.

I'm not quite sure of the details here.  But if it's a Compass direction going wrong, that's something to do with the Beacons which isn't right (I've seen that in Mercy Island).

 

What's more likely, if it's a popup saying "Cap au Diable" when it actually should say "Grandville", that's a typo of some sort in the mission.  Which should be reported as a typo with the Contact and Mission.

 

I've done Pither's missions on one Toon.  Next time I do them, I'll be on the lookout for that glitch.

It's not a beacon issue. In the 'Alone in the Darque' arc from Efficiency Expert Pither, all three missions have set doors you go to. The first one is always in Cap au Diable. The second and third are always in Grandville. The second mission's entrance popup, when you enter the mission, makes comment about Aeon's lab not being part of the regular Cap au Diable tourist stops. I get the impression that it was originally meant to send you back to Cap au Diable like the first mission does, but it always sends you to the Aeon Corp. office in Grandville.

 

Now, I can file this request as a bug report and I'm perfectly fine with doing so. However, just in case, I am filing it as a suggestion to align the popup text with the mission location.

 

(Edit: And if a GM decides it is better filed as a bug report and moves it, it won't break my heavily carbonized circulatory pump in the slightest.)

That sounds like a text typo in a mission.  Which you file in this pinned post in the Bug Report Forum.

Aren't you one of the ones that always argues with me whenever I tell anyone else the same thing? Given how often I get pushback on that, for the time being, I'm leaving this here. If a GM disagrees and moves it? Oh well.

I don't always argue with you.  Easily half the time or more I agree with you.  In this case, it's a typo.  You just need to write up a single Post in that Topic using the text you have used above.

 

I don't know if a GM is able to or will split out a single Post from this Topic and move it to that Topic, which is where typos are supposed to be reported.  I always consider the Homecoming Staff as overworked.  Anything we can do to help, we should.

The typo is even noted in the Wiki

Didn't bother with the wiki. Thanks for pointing that out. (Edit: That makes this an already recognized issue. So this thread can be dropped.)
