Heya folks, I'm currently keeping up with the JA2 1.13 play but unfortunately encountered another possible bug that I hope I could wrap my head around and hopefully solve
I've been caught with stealing Kingpin's stash and was given 48 hrs to give the money back with interest. So given that there were a lot of guns lying around unused I decided to cash them in with Tony and
hand whatever sum that was obtained. Didn't want additional conflict when the mercs were just about to be up and running.
Trouble is, at his compound, I couldn't even get to meet the guy! Damon mentions Kingpin is awaiting me and steps aside, but as soon as I step past the door, everyone turns hostile!
I mean, give me at least a chance to talk to the guy and hand over the wad of cash before blasting me away, is what I'd like to see.
Is there any way around this? Thanks for all your help.

Yes according to what i have seen in LPs they should not turn hostile as soon as you pass the threshold.
(I never pay him money, usually kill him before taking the money or at least before he sends the mail,
except for the few times I waited until then to get the assasins;)
Well, the game cheated on you for whatever reason, so my suggestion is to pay it back:
1st make a hard save, just in case of more weird stuff happening.
Collect all rocks you can get before Kingpins deadline passes.
Go into the club, if Darren agrees to a fight the better, wait til Kingpin arrives.
Place the character close enough, pick up the rock with cursor and drop it on the target,
it will receive 1 hp dmg. But not turn hostile ;)
When all rocks are thrown, try whether it also works with other items.
(iirc it should if you started the process with rocks)
Move one tile to the target so the character "discovers" the thrown items on the ground,
pick them up, move back and repeat untill the target drops to the ground.
Now have other mercs steal all the stuff from the target (ctrl+click),
make sure you get all before the target is in "dying" state.
You can do this probably with all targets outside of Kingpins house, incl Damon,
but i would bet that he stays at his place if the whole faction turns hostile,
and block others from exiting the building through the front door,
that way you could concentrate all attention incl chem lights on the "back door shooting range" :D
The stolen equipment should be sufficient to quickly kill all who come out there after you fired one shot at somebody inside.
Assuming Damon is still standing on his spot in full light, shoot him from NE and SW corner of the house,
if you have no flash hiders always move behind the corners.
Do not face an uninjured Kingpin directly, instead trigger turn based [D] repeatedly,
1st throw a tear gas grenade to check whether he wears a gas mask at all,
in case not you will hear him moan and then drop to the ground, now its time to run in (gas mask!) and finish the bugger.
Else throw the grenades you got, the more the better, optionally shoot with AP ammo through the inner walls into the small room SE of front door,
until you hear a reaction ...

Thanks townltu, that is pretty dastardly way to pay the game back, haha. I will try to collect the rocks (I think there are three of them so far) and experiment for a bit.
