I've noticed a strange bug. When the "Set Player Sword Off" command is executed, player definitely removes his sword, but not Beethro-like NPCs! Some rooms in the official hold rely on it, namely The Grand Library 6N3W where Beethro NPC kills the 1st Librarian which has the "Go to Level Entrance" command (most probably, because the game doesn't go to 6N4W then).

Dunno if it's 3.2.1.85 patch I have or not.

This is not an engine bug. If one needs an NPC to be swordless, one can use an Imperative. It says "Set Player Sword" and thus it should only affect the player's sword, and the player is not always Beethro anyway.

The official hold may or may not need a minor alteration.

When playing through the Library using 3.2.1.87 and the latest official TCB hold, I had no problems and never saw a sword. If anyone does have this sort of problem, you may need to reinstall the full game (and then reapply the latest beta patch if you want).

Then a correction: This wouldn't be considered an engine bug, if it existed.

I spit at you, random down-modder.
