As in a hostage.

Yes, how did you do it?

The reason it's super buggy is that you shouldn't be able to put Conservatives in your squad.

Okay, does losing an eye severely nerf your driving skill? Felix Fudge is now absolutely horrible at escaping from the police in his sports car.

A conservative captive. I simply created a squad and he showed up as a potential member thereto. I assumed it was intentional, since there's a TDTTOE and it says a squad can't just have conservatives. I assumed it was so you could take prisoners with you to sites, like capturing a CEO and taking him to the Cable station.

I'd imagine it should--he's blind on one side now, after all.

The ability to put Conservatives in your squad was cut by Toady many years ago, and the code for preventing you from forming an all-Conservative squad was vestigial and shouldn't ever come up if the game is working right. This is the same bug that let you put sleepers in your squad, and will be fixed in the next release.

While conceptually forcing captives to travel with you in your squad is cool, the actual behavior once you show up on site isn't coded to properly support that, as you discovered.

Losing one eye makes a small difference; maybe a point of driving skill's worth. Losing two eyes will absolutely destroy your driving rolls.

Another possibility is that if a character is currently wounded (not just blind in one eye, but actually shot up), they're much much worse at driving.

What are these maps in the art folder labelled "mapCSV_WhiteHouse..."?

Do I smell work on national LCS already beginning?

That's weird, then. He only lost one eye, isn't wounded, and his driving skill is 11. Theoretically, he should be about as good at driving as the above-average NASCAR driver.

Hes right, there are a ton of maps for "WhiteHouse." Looks like whatever the building is has three floors. My question? Where is this location? If its already in the game it has to be on the travel menu somewhere.

They can't be accessed, and there aren't any unique NPCs or interactions even if you did manage to go there. But there are indeed some rather extensive floor plans modeled after the West Wing in the game files for LCS 4.07.0.

Out of curiosity, I'm sure this is old, but why is there an Obama mask in a reality where he never became president?

Was he the liberal candidate against arch-conservative President [Name] in 2008?

The LCS could be an extremely hardcore version of the Obama bandit in real life, you know the guy who wears a mask of Obama and robs stores.

Obama would still be a Senator, most likely considered Liberal at best.  Young charismatic Liberal Senator might still get a mask.
