ectravlr dialog issues

[Lexx2k]

This dialog seems broken.

The whole flow is weird / mixed up - see the screenshot, that can't be right. It just keeps going incomprehensible after that, as if someone shifted the line numbers.

Stumbled over the encounter ("You encounter: a Traveller") at random around New Reno.

Isn't this intended? If you keep pressing her on where she's headed she will refuse to talk to you and say you have "broken the traveller's code".

No clue. That whole dialog just feels like a bug to me.

The encounter is actually quite common around New Reno.

It's RP script, there's mentions of EPA.

Then it accidentally slipped into the UP? I also remember a traveler encounter that would give you the location of SAD, but dunno if it's the same or a different one (also don't remember if it was only in the RP.. haven't played it in many years).

In UP source, at least. Too lazy to check the decompiled script.

Not sure why adding a single new zone option would require changing the whole script file. Need to check and probably rewrite this in a less intrusive way.

ok,

1. It's actually ectrvlr, not ectravlr. As far as I can see, the scripts are identical and are using the same msg file. Not sure if ectravlr is used (but it's registered in scripts.lst).
2. The reason why dialog numbers differ is because available locations are calculated in the script with random, so killap inserted EPA , shifting all consequtive line numbers.
3. I just used RP script/msg as base, shifted location lines to a separate range and edited out EPA, so now scripts and messages are much more convergent between UPU/RPU.
4. Also cleaned up the scripts and fixed combat taunts.

Just tested it, works now.
