Gendarmerie Jail Hates Halflings

[BahamutZ3RO]

As the title says. It is incredibly difficult to operate the door because I can't speak with the gendarmes behind the counter unless I shuffle around side-stepping into the wall enough that it gets me within range. Even being directly up against it doesn't work and tries to path me through the doors and around the counter to them.

Also unrelated Gendarmerie bug, entering the jail area randomly equips my hood and a different cloak.

I have experienced the hood issue as well.

Hood and cloak issue was reported a long time ago, when Alix was a Gendarme, and when Joachim was a Gendarme. I'm not sure why it's never been fixed. It will also change out your accoutrements and sometimes change your clothes to a second Gendarme uniform in your inventory, if you're using multiple sets of the official faction gear (I.E., Gendarme Uniform, Gendarme Uniform Breastplate)

The title click baited me here, haha.

I've experienced a similar issue with the halfling model interacting with herbalism cauldrons, especially the ones in the Mist Camp. I have to click all over the place and sideshuffle for a dozen attempts until I happen to approach it from the right angle. This only seems to happen for the halfling model.

I'll fix this.

As for the halflings issue, not sure the best way to solve that.

I've found another bug with the Gendarmerie. Multiple rooms in the main floor are audible from the lobby (standing where a person would stand to interact with the desk clerk). Circled them on the minimap for reference.

If the stone half-wall barricade thing in this image can be replaced with something narrower, it would allow Halflings and other small races to be able to get close enough to speak with the Gendarme Gaoler.



As it stands, on laggy days, I literally cannot open the jail doors and need to ask another Gendarme (or DM) to come down and do it for me.

I mean, how can you talk to something that you can't perceive is there? Seems like it's working as intended.

Stilts.

This should now be fixed.
