    I'm in the process of trying to drop a character and create a new one. When I select the Party Formation Screen ("Head" at bottom right of game screen) and then press "Modify Character", I believe I'm supposed to be seeing a sub menu that gives me the option of deleting, importing, etc. What I see, instead, is a character information sheet, with no capability for any of those actions. I did do a search and didn't find any other posts on this topic. Is this a bug? Or..is there another way I can drop and create characters? :hmm:

    I think there's a party management panel somewhere, but I don't know where by heart.

    Thanks! I'm still searching for it. The manual states, however, that the "head" is the access point. And... I'm not seeing that. Should I list this under Modjahed's "Known Bug" posts? Wherever the panel is, it's definitely not where the manual says it is. :D

    Yes, list it in the known bugs thread. Whenever I went into the same screen and clicked on something, I think the "head" but not sure, I got the screen that the manual says I should have gotten. Wierd. :confused:

    [​IMG] The head works for me... I see a list of my characters and a button at the bottom that says modify characters.

    The "head" works fine for me as well -- I get the screen with the "Modify Character" button. It's when you press *that* button, the next screen is simply a character information screen, with no action buttons of any kind on it. You can't delete or import any characters, and the manual states that you should be able to.

    The manual was written quite a while before the game was finished, so there are some inaccuracies in it.

    Once you go into that screen, click on the character. It should work fine (i.e. You get a panel that says modify, delete, etc.).

    I've more or less given up on this. When I go into that screen and click on a particular character, I simply get a display of information entitled "Character Information"....that's it. There are no further buttons or actions offered.
