Choice adventure 678 (top floor of the castle) appears to get stuck, I've tested on 2 characters now, I have set "choiceAdventure678=3", but it will just hang stuck in that adventure.

it is set to 3...skip adv

if I pull it up in the relay browser, without 'escaping' and select 3, it will continue just fine

I had a hunch about the cause of this problem and I was right. Short version: Jick is an idiot. Long version:

It seems that choice 3 is actually choice 4.

Code:
1 -> 2 -> 4
is as good a sequence as
Code:
1 -> 2 -> 3
Some say he's a fool, others will say he's a genius!

Or there is the possibility that choice n°3 will appears in the right circumstances... circumstances that haven't been discovered yet.

It seems as though I'm the idiot, I didn't even think to look that choice 3 wasn't choice 3. Thanks Bale :)

I'll test, but I think we should mark this as 'not a bug'

This would be my guess. Or, perhaps choice 3 was simply removed and later choices were not renumbered.

There are enough precedents for choices that only appear conditionally that I hope and expect we can handle this one correctly, even if we've never seen choice #3.

If/once #3 becomes found, it would likely just require adding that to the Choice Adventure list, though likely as "#3, then #[1, 2, 4]"
