Here are some oddities in "Hotel":

1. Taking out the diplomat by non-lethal means (ie. chloroform, punching him or throwing a glass at him) is classed as killing him and instantly results in mission failure. Maybe you should make the game recognize that knocking out the diplomat isn't classed as killing him. You did a similar thing with the courier in "Winter Cold".

2. The game crashes when you attack the diplomat while the meeting is going on.

I will check that...

Edit:// On my system the game only crashes when I attack the traitor, not the diplomat

It seems to be a scripting error, but I cannot find it

One of the two anyway! The point is, the text says "Diplomat has been killed" even when you merely knock him out. Alternatively, you could change the text to "Diplomat has been attacked"...

OK

Back to the crash thing: Was it there before you installed my mod?

I didn't check before then, it was only now that I've discovered the problem. I don't think it's related to your mod...

Something's been bugging me lately...

Toilets in Embassy: The bathroom where you get to nick the "out of order" sign appears to be the women's toilets, since only female staffers go in and out of that room. For some reason, they don't seem to mind Strogov paying a visit.

For realism concerns, I think you should make everyone on the first floor turn hostile as soon as Strogov enters the ladies toilets, since in real life, people won't take too kindly to this and will call security. You've only discovered how you can replace NPCs with ones with new IDs, didn't you?

However, I don't think it would be a good idea for Strogov to dress up as the cleaning lady who frequently visits both bathrooms...
