Problem with Warlab after killing Lukash

Hi again,

I managed to stumble my way through the first half of the mod without Lukash and Miser using Esc+S.  I did things a bit out of order but currently I am past the mission to defend the Lost Village and tasked Pilgrim with protecting Panther. I've already met with the Black Doctor, and I am supposed to go to the Warlab now, but there's nothing there. Reading through the Guide, I found out there's supposed to be a recon with someone named Vitamin, that is initiated by Lukash.

Since he's dead I can't visit Lukash, however I can spawn in Vitamin. My problem is that the missions I'm finding for him in the spawn menu aren't working; when I talk to him, I get the "You got here quickly. Ready to go?" dialogue. I can't seem to find the task that properly initiates the Raid on Warlab. What are the sequence of events I should initiate to ensure that this works and get myself back on track? Thank you in advance

EDIT: Quick update: spawning the task from AW correctly spawns Vitamin and his men at the heading in Radar. However they're not following me, only Vitamin does. Also, none of them cross over to AW with me.

It sounds as if you have already tried most of the relevant info portions, but this sequence worked for me...

Spoiler:

 

After meeting Vitamin in Army Warehouses, I jumped straight to the Warlab entrance (ESC-S to 'radar'). While still outside the door to Warlab I used info portions:

vit_radar_restr
vitamin_radar_bazar
vitamin_reyd_ok

I then entered Warlab to find Vitamin and his squad with me on the stairs. The dogs that are supposed to be in Warlab weren't there, but that didn't seem to matter. I let the Freedomers filter down into the lab and then followed. Vitamin was waiting in the 'command' (pool table) room and I was able to talk to him to complete the mission.

If this doesn't work for you, it may be that your game is now too broken. If that is the case, I can send you a working save game from meeting Vitamin in Army Warehouses (with Lukash and Miser still alive) and you could play on from there. I will have done some things in a different order, and you will have to replay some sections that you shouldn't have reached yet (such as reaching the Lost Village), but at least you shouldn't come across any more problems due to missing NPCs. Alternatively I could send you a save game from a different point (e.g. after the Lost Village battle) if you don't want to replay everything in between. PM me with your email address if you want to try this.

Hey pchester,

I managed to get everything working by spawning the reyd_ok (maybe?) task in Army Warehouses, transitioning to Radar, and then going to Warlab by myself - Vitamin does follow but won't transition with me. Spawning in Vitamin at the stairs in Warlab also spawned in all his men, and the dogs too. Very wonky way to succeed!

Thank you again for helping and offering the save game. I don't think my game's broken just yet. I almost did after Lost Village - got SMS from Maples, who I didn't meet yet, the Black Doctor was absent, etc. Esc+S has rescued me about 4 or 5 times now. The written guide has also been a tremendous help but I try not to read too far ahead.

I'm done with all my tasks up to following Boatswain to the base in Generators. I probably have done things quite a bit out of sequence but I'm up to date, as far as the guide is concerned. I'm at the Generators currently, leading Boatswain. Things are quite linear at the moment.

Thank you again. And Merry Christmas!

Okay, good to hear that you are back on course. Yes, the game does become a lot more linear after Recon, so there is less chance of accidentally doing things out of order!

(And a Happy Christmas back at you...    )
