Finding NPCs on the map[message #364422]

Hi,

sorry for making an own topic for my very stupid question.

Is there any option in the ini or whereever to reactivate the option that you see every singe NPC/civilian/trader om the map after the battle is over?

It is very annoying searching for them especially when you need to turn around even in small rooms to find them.

Also:
Is it possible they "disappear" when the Loyalty in a city is very low?

In Grumm I could neither find Fredo nor Manny in the sectors where they normally are.

For Manny I even know where he should be because I already took care of Charly and emptied both trader inventories.

I feel like this has to be somewhere but my search skills went nowhere because i did not know where and what to look for. shy

Maybe this even is a ja2 113 problem.

Thank you.
Narguhl happy

I couldn't find an ini setting to reveal all NPC's either.
Most of the shopkeepers are in their shops only during "regular business hours", then they close up and go home. This doesn't apply to the bars and the whorehouse, understandably they are open 24/7. Keith, in Cambria is a good example. At some point during the day he closes the store, locks the door, and goes "home". In his case "home" is a room behind the storefront so he's still easy to find. Doreen does it too. When the factory is closed, she isn't there and you have to find her somewhere else in town.
Generally speaking, if the shop door is locked, the store is closed and the NPC has gone home. Where "home" is or even what hours a given shop is open is an question for someone else to answer.
Hope this helps.

Don't quote me on that, but IIRC most of the shops are open from 9:00 to 18:00. Though i guess mods could change the hours.

Thanks for your ideas.

I took a look for Manny and Fredo at 10, 14 , 18 o'clock and could not find them. angry

Maybe it's my very low loyalty.

Maybe it will be better when I got it up... However I will do this...

Thank you for your time anyway happy
