Yeah there's another guard that can glitch out on the other stairwell. I'm not sure what causes this, nor how to fix it to be quite honest.
Does this guard also get stuck here on 1.0? If not then it might be some pathfinding issue I introduced with 1.1b.

Folks,
I've got 3/4 secrets and would like a more detailed hint on the last one, the one that is outside the castle.
This is a really awesome mission. I played through in hard difficulty, it is definitely possible to complete the mission without having to meet or deal with Barlowe. Also, I definitely also encountered the "glitched out" guard at the end of the stairs that klatremus encountered, but my memory seemed to be that he will respond to noises, etc. as normal.

Well, I found Dewdrop. Shame on you, Skacky. What did she ever do to you? :p
klatremus on 23/11/2025 at 23:04
I found her too, and I thought the same thing! :rolleyes:

He has not gotten stuck for me on 1.0. Tried it again right now too. In fact, I waited here for a good 10 minutes and no guard with that outfit ever walks through that doorway going north-to-south in 1.0. Only the white guard that can't be blackjacked goes through there every few minutes or so.

Also, is this guard supposed to be stationed here facing the wall?

https://www.klatremus.org/uploads/dump001.jpgThis is just north of the southwest staircase on the 1st floor. I saw him there both in 1.0 and 1.1, and several times in the latter version. But I have also seen this hallway without him there, so I figured it was a mistake.

@klatremus: both guards you report getting stuck do so if you save and load and just the right (or maybe just the wrong :P) time. It's the same situation as with the priest in Godbreaker M1.

the same problem arises at the door from the southeast staircase on the same floor. i had guards stuck on both. i'm thinking it might be triggered when they step aside to let another guard through the arch, since those doorways are very heavilly trafficked.

Something out of the ordinary is definitely going on, as i have found both guards stuck after not even 10 minutes of gameplay on multiple occasions, and after saving only once or twice. Seeing as I've only seen one stuck guard in the last 10 Thuef missions I've played outside of this, I'd blame it on more than just happenstance of saving at the wrong time.

One potential fix to this problem would be to make these guards efficient, i.e. freeze them when you're too far away. The caveat is that I don't know if they'll teleport away when midnight strikes.
Okay, that's an odd request but can you get closer to them and screenshot them for me? I'm asking because they all have unique skins, so it'll make finding them easier. I can give you an experimental version afterwards to see if the problem persists.
