Solved [Indev 0.51.1] Burned Tower Rival Crash

[narf42]

When I visited the Burned Tower in Ecruteak City I encountered a crash when I tried to talk to my rival. The crash did not occur during the dialogue but when pressing the button to initiate the dialogue (which is different from the known bug in the earlier version of the game where the game crashes during the conversation).

EDIT: looking at the crash report myself, it looks like it's a simple matter of the script file being missing, re-downloading the game right now.

EDIT2: Nope, still crashing.

What I expected to happen:
To talk to my rival.

What actually happened:
The game crashed.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to my rival in the Burned Tower and initiate dialogue
2. Crash.

Hmm interesting bug. But not a bug as.... This must be the NPC didn't get registered properly making you able to chat with him when you are not suppose to. ( The NPC action tag seem to say trigger a script which is blank. Should have at least make it show an empty textbox for anti crash. )

I remember you only have to battle him with a trigger and you will fall into the pit.

Probably you might need an extra help on this. Here is the advice,

If you didn't battle him before, then try to walk around to see if he interact with you and don't talk to him.

If you battle before but lose, then lead to this, your save is bugged.
In this case, you will need to contact the moderator usually @Tornado9797 or @Fanta or maybe @Darkfire would help you solve this.

If you battle and win but he is still there, don't interact with him and try walk down the stairs.

If all else fails... In this case you will need a soft *reset* by having a moderator to fix your save back to the correct event.

I can only do until here. Thats all

I tried walking around him for a bit in hope to trigger something but nothing happened.
I have battled him before, twice I think. At the very beginning and right before the Farfetch'd quest but I didn't battle him in the Burned Tower yet.
I can not use the stairs either.

EDIT: Nevermind, it is fixed. Since you said it looked like the NPC wasn't registered I tried leaving the area and coming back. I guess there was an error when loading the map and re-entering the map fixed it. So the reason it couldn't find a script for dialogue is because there isn't supposed to be one. Instead an event is triggered when walking towards him. Silly me, should've tried that first. Thanks, though!
