[WIN10 x64 0.8.2] I did a quest for the fighter's guild, returned, NPCs in guild were missing until I saved and [CLOSED]

No mods I don't think?

I received a quest from the fighter's guild in daggerfall city to go kill a giant in some dungeon. I went and killed the giant. I then returned to the fighter's guild and all the NPCs were missing. I saved the game while standing in the fighter's guild, then closed df unity, then opened it and loaded the game and the npcs were there again.

Guild NPCs regularly disappear outside of opening hours. In the current version of DFU (0.8.2) the building will remain unlocked because it's involved in a quest. As this causes some confusion, I've changed this auto unlock behaviour to only apply to quest residences.

I'd say the issue here is very unlikely to be a bug and you simply entered the building outside of normal operating hours (e.g. before 11am). Even if opening hours begin while inside, you need to exit and re-enter the guild before NPCs will spawn. Save and exit will have the same effect.

Ahhh thanks.
I must've forgotten NPCs disappear, the last time I played daggerfall was 3-4 years ago.

I won't derail this thread any more than this: DBX is great (and thanks for it!).
