Hello!

I am currently trying to fix a bug with the Rugan Questline to unlock the Zhent trader! For context this is in a honor mode save so I can't just reload the game. My buddy knocked out Rugan and killed Olly, I have never done this before but assumed if we took the chest we could deliver to the lady ourselves.

After accepting the quest from her she keeps asking us about her people but we can hand over the chest. I figured a long rest would revive Rugan and then he would either make his way to the hideout or I would need to talk with him and then he would show up. Neither happened and when I went back to the gnoll cave Rugan was just gone, the quest is still saying we need to finish off the survivors and I still can't give Zarhys the chest.

Do any of you lovely people know the quest flag code for this? I would love to use cheat engine to simply flag either Rugan as dead or the quest as complete so we can get to the trader but the only resource I can find for quest flags are all the romance flags. Any thoughts?

How to use this cheat table?

1. Install Cheat Engine
2. Double-click the .CT file in order to open it.
3. Click the PC icon in Cheat Engine in order to select the game process.
4. Keep the list.
5. Activate the trainer options by checking boxes or setting values from 0 to 1

I need help addtag doesn't work in multiplayer.... Idk what to do did i press sosem burton the command doesn't work properly too but the script for the items work just the tag idk really any help? I need the branded tag for my fucked combo on my friends char

I think I understand what you're saying but post the codes so we can see what you're doing.
Just some basics:
Only the leader can activate codes.
You can modify player companion if you take control of their character.

There are a few ways to apply tags. Unless the tag is visible in their character card it's probably not activated (some tags aren't visible but BRANDED will show up).

Code: Select all

{$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
tag = "310f7186-bb0b-4905-b8f6-dfc2fe62570a" -- BRANDED
[ENABLE]
SetTagOnPlayer(tag)
[DISABLE]
ClearTagOnPlayer(tag)

"310f7186-bb0b-4905-b8f6-dfc2fe62570a" -- BRANDED
"11491bda-fa57-44ed-a306-a13fdf8e3b82" -- TRUESOUL

I personally wouldn't test out flags on an honor run! To prevent potential game breaking issues, use as few codes as possible. Flags are often grouped with other flags and sometimes used as triggers so applying them individually or out of synch might break your game in unforeseeable ways. If you still want to proceed here are a few things you might consider in order of safety:

1. Cheat in the items you want from Brem's "secret shop" ("22bf3680-a37f-4a04-b036-2865805f3d60" -- Harold)
2. Teleport Rugan to you and kill him properly (he might be invisible/off-stage if he doesn't show up. easy fix)
3. Execute Call a death on Rugan (potential crash)
4. Force the quest to be completed (potential issues but it'll look finished for the completionists out there)
5. Look up flags and try them until something clicks (not advisable. best used in sandbox)

Hey Furioustortoise, what is the code to "summon"/teleport a NPC somewhere, i could try this to knockout my tiefling for my d'urge issue :p
and also is there a way to get her UUID not sure the script in the UUID Sniffers would work on her nvm for that, found it on bg3wiki

Alfira should be playing her music above the Druid Camp until she goes to visit you that night. But I doubt knocking Alfira out would be enough. The game uses a cutscene when Durge does what Durge does. I tried a few basic things to work around it but you said it only stalled the inevitable cutscene. I'm not sure which flags you'll end up needing.

All that being said, you can summon (teleport her to you) with a code from my table:
L33T H4CK3R C0D3Z -> EXECUTE CALL CODES -> Spawns + Summons -> Teleport Entity

You'll need to go into the <script> of this code and past over the Emperor's UUID with Alfira's.

You can find Alfira under the Transformations tab of EXECUTE CALL CODES. Alfira is a Humanoid -> Tiefling.
Copy her UUID (from the <script> of that code) and paste it over the Emperor's UUID of Teleport Entity.

*yep, BG3wiki has all character UUIDs in the Technical dropdown.

Thanks i'll try that anyway see if it works, if it doesn't, i'll think of either going back on a save wayyyyyyyy earlier before my mistake or continue without her ...

EDIT : welp, she's invisble :p

Really? She shouldn't be invisible at this point but maybe your game reaaaally wants your Durge to complete his mission.
Okay, your next step is to make her reappear.

In BG3, most characters that seem "invisible" or "teleport away" from you in game are usually just standing right where they "left"--just in a state called "Off-Stage". Once you've summoned her you can bring Alfira back "On-Stage" with this code:
L33T H4CK3R C0D3Z -> EXECUTE CALL CODES -> Staging -> Set OnStage

Remember to copy and paste Alfira's code into that new <script>.

Well would you know, it worked, Alfira is safe (for now :p ) her dragonborn friend though... not so much, but i don't really care for her xD, now let's hope it's the last of my d'urge urges i'll have to face in this game xD

Thanks for all your help

good news. would you mind giving a brief bullet point summation of what you did that fixed your issue? starting from activating the durge tag (which triggered The Urge quest) and finishing with Alfira is safe... for now.

**** Contain Spoilers Regarding The Dark Urge / Alfira / Quil ****

good news. would you mind giving a brief bullet point summation of what you did that fixed your issue? starting from activating the durge tag (which triggered The Urge quest) and finishing with Alfira is safe... for now.

Not sure where it started exactly, i think i clicked "L33T H4CK3R C0D3Z => TAGS => Backgrounds and/or companions"

After that, quite a long moment passed since i kinda forgot i saw "The Urge" quest begining.

Once i saw the poor Alfira join my camp one night that's when i panicked, from then i rollback Before act 1.5 (but everything else was already done :
Druid Grove / Gob camp / Tav Camp Party )

I then used the both

Code: Select all

{$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
flag = "8cccf7a0-5d65-4bbd-b568-9cbb9e69bb27" -- ORI_DarkUrge_MurderOfAlfira_Requirement
[ENABLE]
ClearFlagOnPlayer(flag)
[DISABLE]

Code: Select all

{$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
quest = "ORI_Avatar_DarkUrge"
[ENABLE]
SetArgToString(0,quest)
ExecuteCall("QuestClose")
[DISABLE]

And as you suggested "L33T H4CK3R C0D3Z => FLAGS => Character Tags: Dialog"

Then in front of the "portal" to Act 1.5 i used "L33T H4CK3R C0D3Z => EXECTURE CALL CODES => Spawns + Summons => Teleport Entity - Alfira " & "L33T H4CK3R C0D3Z => EXECTURE CALL CODES => Staging => Set OnStage - Alfira "

Put the passiv "knock down" instead of Kill, Bonked Alfira on the head, and crossed the gateway.

Note however, that as Alfira is not available and Durge still need his fresh sacrifice, i had [Link] visiting instead of Alfira ..

I think that's everything
