I'm an idiot

I'm an idiot.

It turns out that your companions from the first module aren't transferred over to the second module. Why? It seems I remove them from the party right before the module ends. Once I comment out the lines in the script that does it, they come across just fine.

I have no idea why I set things up that way. Perhaps I was thinking I would store them in a database or something (like I had to do with the NWN1 prototype). In any case, it means I'll need to release an updated version of the first module at some point. For players that still have a saved game from the first module, Heather and Daniel will reappear, just without the equipment you gave them (I give them stock gear). Sigh.

QA progress continues in general. I'm still getting bugs reported faster than I can fix them, though that's pretty typical early in the process. I recorded a couple voice lines for a creature this morning. I get strange satisfaction mangling my voice and making it sound horrific.
