From 832d7465e334828fb9a7c4e19958ccf9a125d217 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Torbj=C3=B6rn=20Andersson?= Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2019 10:20:36 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Fixed conditions for Monica's acquittal if you arrest her and Phong. There are a couple of possible outcomes when you arrest Phong and Monica together. There's the case where you don't even know about the hidden gun, and there's the case where you have all the evidence. Neither of those are affected by this change. Instead, it focuses on the case where you haven't found everything, may still have enough evidence to convict Monica on her own, but instead decide to arrest both her and Phong. Before, the conditions were: 1) If you hadn't touched the gun receipt, she was acquitted "because he was", with the police chief lamenting that you should have tried her for plain murder instead of conspiracy. 2) Otherwise, if she had a motive she was acquitted "because there was no definite link between her and the hidden gun mechanism". 3) Otherwise, if you knew she had the clock key she was acquitted "because she had no motive". 4) Otherwise, she was acquitted "because", with no further reason. Ending 1 only makes sense if she has a motive and you know she had the clock key. Ending 2 only makes sense if you don't know she had the clock key. Ending 3 makes sense. Ending 4 never makes sense. With this change, the outcome instead is: 1) If she has no motive, she is acquitted because of that. Even if you know she has the clock key. Motive overrides everything. 2) Otherwise (i.e. you know she has a motive), if you know she has the clock key she is acquitted because Phong was, with the note that you should have tried her for murder instead of conspiracy. 3) Otherwise (i.e. you know she has a motive, but you don't know about the clock key), she's acquitted because there is no definite link between her and the hidden gun mechanism. So I haven't added any new text, just changed the conditions for when the existing messages appear. This way, the match what happens when you arrest her by herself. It no longer checks if you touched the gun receipt, but since Phong's acquittal message depends on that I think it's covered well enough by the "because he was" reason. --- events.zil | 11 +++++------ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/events.zil b/events.zil index bb5baad..fa95ebc 100644 --- a/events.zil +++ b/events.zil @@ -1765,17 +1765,16 @@ mechanism.|" CR> - > + + ) + ( ) - (,MONICA-HAS-MOTIVE + (T
