Misc Notes
----------------
Rental ship in Andunor. This was not a NWN's bug, as reloading NWN's did not correct the issue for either party, and both party members had the problem.

Which Server(s)?
------------------------
Surface.

Gaming Platform(s)?
------------------------------
PC.

Was this after a server crash/reset? I encountered the exact same thing about a month ago and it was immediately after a server crash.

No. This was during normal play. I am told now that the Sailing ship expired while we were on it somehow? I do not believe it was recalled since the person I was with (after we both spent a lens) immediately re-rented it. We just couldn't get back onto the deck of the pirate ship to get all our loot in the old, so we lost quite a bit of $$$ and two lenses.

Okay, I think this is what happened:

1) You went Below Deck, no players on the Exterior (Deck) area.
2) Your rental expired, which resets it (Even if its not called back), which also removes all NPC ship instances linked to it, meaning the areas are removed. But in NWN an area can't be removed if a player is inside it.
3) So its likely the Exterior Deck area got removed because of this and you could not transition back meaning you get stuck there.

This is really a nasty corner case, not sure how to fix it. What I could potentially do is add a script that checks if the linked area is gone, and if it is, then maybe allow you to Port from there with a dialog opening or something. Or have you be ported to the ship you were on.

Got a potential fix for this in the pipeline. If the transition fails it will port you back to the Ship that engaged the NPC Vessel. And if that fails (Unlikely) you will be prompted by this and DMs will be notified to help you out.
