Diplomacy Interface Bug

I'm not 100% sure this is relegated to diplomacy only as it is so sporadic. Forgot to bug this in game, so I figured I'd throw it here.

I have a tendency to blow through a Diplomacy encounter and then read the dialog text after the win. Every once in awhile when I click the scroll bar to bring the text up to the beginning, the window simply closes. Once this happens, ALL dialog is broken until I relog (i.e. empty windows in all communication with merchants, diplomat NPCS, quest NPCs... etc.). I can't reproduce it on a regular basis, but it does happen intermittently.

I am using a lightly modded UI, but my modifications don't involve any aspect of the Diplomacy or NPC chat windows.

Not a game breaking bug, but annoying as heck for those of us who like to read the storylines.

Re: Diplomacy Interface Bug

I was using a modded UI for a short time as well. It tended to bork my chat occasionally (though I never thought about a connection between diplo quests and the chat borks... I didn't pay that close attention)

I went back to the basic UI for test purity purposes but I cannot make the chat screw up anymore.

I guess what I'm saying is, even if it is inconsistent, try to replicate it with the in game UI. if you can't get it to dup, I'd chalk it up to the UI.

This is in no way a knock against modded UI's. I am QA for a game where the community mods the base UI all the time. But this *is* a valid trouble shooting step.

Another valid trouble shooting step is to make note of the quests this happens on. If the same quest is giving many people trouble, it could be a timing/clickbox/active area border error

just a few thoughts
