Mars and Charon remain when disconnecting during the event at the entrance of Stark Mountain Main Cavern Pt

[Haneroze]

Hello,

 

After starting the Heatran quest and entering Stark Mountain Main Cavern Pt for the first time, an event with Commander Mars, Charon and Buck is triggered at the entrance. If the player disconnects in the middle of that event, Commander Mars and Charon will continue standing there forever. Talking to them displays the placeholder message "NPC Message".

 

Prerequisite:

- The player has not started the Heatran quest

- All prerequisites of the Heatran quest (150 hours played, only one level 60- Pokémon on hand)

 

Steps to reproduce:

1. Proceed to Stark Mountain Entrance Pt.

2. Talk to Buck and enter Stark Mountain Main Cavern Pt.

3. Step forward to trigger the event with Commander Mars, Charon and Buck.

4. Log out during the event.

5. Relog into the game.

 

Current result:

Commander Mars and Charon are still there, while the event can no longer be triggered. Speaking to them displays the placeholder message "NPC Message".

 

Additional information:

- Please see the attached screenshot for more information.

- In my particular reproduction, logging out was done by being kicked from being AFK.

- This does not appear to affect the rest Heatran quest, and can be completed as normal.

- Even after completing all of the Heatran quest, Commander Mars and Charon remain there.

- Buck replies as normal when talked to, that is, he will allow to heal the player's Pokémon or teleport out of the cave without displaying any placeholder text.

Hmm thank you for the well-written report.

Luckily, this bug isn't too debilitating, so I'll add it to the to-do list :)
