Welcome to The Bug Genie

Can you list some NPCs where this is happening for you?

Rinco in the Yellow Tulip. Greu in the Big Collapse. Maria in the City of Arx. Polsius in the Yellow Tulip. Tizzy in the Yellow Tulip. Tafiok in the City of Arx. Recet or Retset (did not find it on the wiki) in the Rebel Camp.

So it seems all of those are bugs/deficiencies in the 1.21 scripts.

Rinco in the Yellow Tulip  ⇑ top

Rinco in the tavern (human_base_0015) never changes his name when you talk to him and always stays description_human_male (A man. / Мужчина). However Rinco in the caves (human_base_0011) changes the name from description_shopkeeper (A shopkeeper. / Торговец) to description_rinco (Rinco. / Ринко).

This seems to be a script bug/omission for human_base_0015 since he clearly tells you his name in the first conversation.

Polsius in the Yellow Tulip  ⇑ top

Polsius in the prison (goblin_base_0009) correctly changes his name from description_goblin to description_polsius. Polsius in the tavern is supposed to have description_polsius but ends up with description_goblin instead.

This is due to a script bug - the instance override script sets description_polsius in the 'on init' event while the base class script sets description_goblin in the 'on initend'. The events are always executed in the following order:

1. base on init
2. override on init - setname description_polsius
3. base on initend - setname description_goblin
4. override on initend

Tizzy in the Yellow Tulip  ⇑ top

Tizzy (human_base_0097) initially has description_human_female (A woman. / Женщина) but when first talking to her her name gets changed to description_tizzy (Bartender. / Бармен).

This seems to work as intended even if it does not include the actual name.

Greu in the Big Collapse  ⇑ top

Greu (troll_base_0008) never changes his name from description_troll. There is a localization string description_troll_greu, but no script references it.

Tafiok in the City of Arx  ⇑ top

Tafiok in the city (human_base_0023) never changes his name from description_shopkeeper. There is a localization string description_tafiok, but it is only used for the map marker.

Maria in the City of Arx  ⇑ top

Maria (human_base_0095) never changes her name from description_human_female. There is a localization string description_maria, but it is only used for the map marker.

Recet or Retset (did not find it on the wiki) in the Rebel Camp  ⇑ top

Not sure who that is. If you write the russian name maybe I can find it.
