Ok I got this bug that when I talked with Witch Doctor Kajim the text dissapeared and it said Null and I couldn't do anything, so I was just stuck there.. I have seen this big in earlier versions, but it still hasn't been fixed it seems
P.S. When I clicked the Elixir seller at Grom'Gul my camera went crazy (happened only once)

sry for long post

it may have been the same thing, but when we failed to escort that guy to get rid of the barrier to the next town, he re spawned where he died. so when he re spawned, the other guy i was with went to talk with him to get the quest again. when he did that, he clicked the quest, accepting it, but right as he did this the quest guy moved, removing the cancel button! so he was stuck in chat, even after he died, and the quest giver died. he gave me control of his char and i couldnt move it. idk if you made it this way for this ver.

aslo, even tho it said he accepted it, the quest giver still had the yellow ! over his head, and when the quest giver died, the yellow ! stayed on the ground.

also, while the quest giver was like this, there was a strange spell effect coming from the ground, kinda like chain lightning.

also, even when the quest giver was dead, and we didnt actually accept the quest, the quest still went on, and eventually completed. but since no one was there to kill the centaurs, they piled up. when the barrier went down, most of the guards in the town did too lol. it was kind of funny to see actually.

when the quest finished and we could get the reward, the -rewards command showed he was in the forest noob area. i went to the exact location it was pinging and there was nothing, i was right on top of it and nothing there.

PS. after watching the replay, when the quest giver died, he dropped the quest item needed to start the quest. when the other guy i was with went to accept the quest the 2nd time, he did not give the quest guy the item. that may have been the start of it, idk tho.

i am trying to figure out what causd this bug, because going through the map in tests did not produce this, so something has to have changed to cause this problem. Soon as I have a fix, i have 2.10.04 ready for release with several other fixes

I think this a bit strange: when playing in 2.10.07, I talked with the surveyvor( when you have to find his equipment) and he said "null", the game stoped and I have to load it again. After loaded I talked with the priest that wanted me to destroy some crystal in the cave and he said "null" again. Other time, using a lv 8 ranger I talked with the Master in Vol'mur, about the quest to go to Grom'Gol and he said "null". Where are this "release command" that you said that come along the 2.10.07 ? I didn't see anyone.

Talk about talk bugs, in this current 2.11.06b, there's a Circle of Power right next to the second massive gate in the Ruined Temple which cause the same bug as above: no Cancel button, stucked hero, and blah blah blah... I found this bug thanks to my MyBackpack tool problem, I mis-chose Talk action, then mis-clicked at the circle, and then lose my character ( cause it's stucked ). Didn't notice any command to fix this, I'll test it again right now.
