NTotSC questions to quests

So I made the mistake of first talking to Reedig after killing Aec'Letec many many hours of playing ago, now Haeball will immediately attack me, when I try to talk to him. Is it possible to use EEKeeper to temporarily edit some global variable in order to appease Haeball for now?

    a) So having talked to Reedig can be re-edited (variable Global("NTTalkedToReedig","GLOBAL"), however I also killed Draagis, how can Imake Haeball ignore this?

    b) After talking to Shaella in the Blade&Star when returning from the second visit to candlekeep, some guy named Hasdar is supposed to talk to me according to NtoSC walkthroughs. Didn't show up, at least not in the blade&star. Where exactly is he supposed to appear?

    a) The answer I gave at SHS (link above) is not sufficient?
    b) outside the inn, SE Baldur's Gate, coordinates [100.680].

    @jastey I appreciate your help very much. Still I would really like to make the Haeball quest, since it is something I havent't done before in previous games, and in my current game I don't want to start over like some 60 hours of playing. Indeed you did tell me, how I can untalk to Reedig - however since I killed Draagis shortly after having talkend to Reedig, Haeball is still attacking me even after setting the global variable to "2". Since you seem to have a great deal of knowledge about BG an NTotSC - do you think there is a way of temporarily make Haeball not be triggered to attack due to Draagis' death by some further EEKeeper editing? Simply dropping the Ring from the Grave unfortunately doesn't do the job.

    Which global variable did you set to "2"? The "SPRITE_IS_DEADNTDRAAGI" I suggested would also need to be set to "0", did you try that? You could also do this via EE Keeper - I think.

    To be more precise. This is the dialogue state you want to prevent:
    /* either heard about cult from Reedrig or destroyed cult already */
    IF WEIGHT #0
    ~OR(2)
    Global("NTTalkedToReedig","GLOBAL",3)
    Dead("NTDRAAGI")~ THEN BEGIN 2
    SAY @6
    IF ~~ THEN DO ~EraseJournalEntry(@10016)
    EraseJournalEntry(@10018)
    EraseJournalEntry(@10019)
    Enemy()~ UNSOLVED_JOURNAL @10017 EXIT
    END

    I'd suggest you cheat the following before talking to Haeball after killing Draagis:

    CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("SPRITE_IS_DEADNTDRAAGI","GLOBAL",0)
    CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("NTTalkedToReedig","GLOBAL",2)

    EDIT: corrected spelling of cheat command

    Thanks, I gonna try that, probably tomorrow, and report back whether it worked

    So it partially worked, Haeball does not attack me anymore and acts as a normal shopkeeper. However, Hasdar does not appear, so Lobar won't point me to Oupaste.
  • LuneverLunever Member Posts: 307
    But I set NTTALKEDTOHASDAR to "2", after that, Lobar can be negotiated with.

    The cheats were for talking to Haeball only. You need to reset them to the values they were before to continue the quest normally. The path you are on now is not considered, so good luck.

    Well, it worked so far, all quests succesfully accomplished, thank you very much for pointing me toward the solution.
