TraitKidStuff parents arrive at Lodge too soon

[DayDreamer]

After finding too many annoying bugs, I'd stopped playing. But some of my reported bugs were actually fixed, and there have been substantial engine changes, so I thought I'd try again in the new year.

This was the first bug I'd reported. It's easy to reproduce. Since this has not been fixed, I'm trying to find the solution, but I'm stuck.

Visit the parents the first time, then go to the Lodge. This takes a very short time as both places are in the Residential area. Yet they arrived before you.

The stage 300 dialogue says: "I was playing poker with the Dean of Engineering and he had this collectible revolver framed - and when he heard you were in Constellation... Well, we worked together to get the piece cleaned and restored. She fires beautifully now. We, uh, took turns sighting it at the range."

The script notes say: "He's lying, they had a rip roaring good time with target practice and beer, lots of beer".

Obviously, there wasn't enough time passing to play poker and restore the gun and have a long target practice. Staggeringly incongruous to me.

There are checks for MQ204 (the Lodge attack), a long time in the future (I've never gotten anywhere near that far along). But no checks for too short a time.

There's an attached script: DefaultQuestChangeLocationScript. It has the ability to check for changing locations, and for your ship changing locations. Ideally, this scene wouldn't run until you'd left the planet and come back at least once.

Somehow, this is done with the "array of stage/location data" in the script properties. But it's inscrutable. How to expand it to be legible?

Another serious issue is that the meatloaf and gran gran suit and free ship only check stage 100 (Intro Conversation played). Probably a simple copy and paste mistake. This doesn't work with the notes that Noel gives you, which happen inside the Lodge after you've returned from a trip.

The later scenes check 300 (Finished Lodge conversation). But instead they all should check 375 (Left the Lodge after the parents conversation).

That is, they all should ensure that the player has actually left the Lodge before coming back to get the notes and leave again for later items.
