Story Mode Wonky?

Hi, Beamdog.

So I set my game to Story mode in BGEE because I want to do a full trilogy run. Let me tell you, it works for my 1 player character - Invulnerable, 25 strength automatically, the works - but not for anyone else. I can't tell if this is a deliberate design choice or not, although given that it affects Imoen as well in BGIIEE I'm guessing it's not. What's wrong, and is there anything I can do to fix it?

    Hi @HalfOrcBeastmaster
    Does switching story mode off, returning to the game screen, then switching story mode not work?

    If not, could you zip and attach an affected save please.
    Thanks

    Yes, it works. Is Story Mode designed only to affect characters who are in the when it's turned on? If so, my suggestion would be to change it because I never saw that mentioned anywhere before.

    Recruited characters should have it set, I just checked with Anomen and Nalia - it took 3-4 seconds but activated without issue. It might be that this can be interrupted, e.g. by issuing them commands, pausing the game, going to inventory, saving, etc.

    If you can see a reproducible way of it happening, please report it as outlined in http://forums.beamdog.com/discussion/49845/how-to-report-bugs
    Thanks
