Since TDD adds many returning NPC's to BG2(Xzar, Montaron, Kivan,etc), after installing it with BGT, will these returning NPC's have their stat/item in the end of the BG1 part of BGT? Or will they have completely different stat/item determined only by TDD?

BGT will transfer their stats form the end of BG1 to BG2. However, TDD items are given to them when you meet them in BG2.Since TDD adds many returning NPC's to BG2(Xzar, Montaron, Kivan,etc), after installing it with BGT, will these returning NPC's have their stat/item in the end of the BG1 part of BGT? Or will they have completely different stat/item determined only by TDD?

Their stats transfer but for Kagain to spawn just normally as per the TDD mod, his GLOBAL has to be "Kagain"," GLOBAL", 0. When I transitioned I looked at a save and his GLOBAL was in the millions. Yeslick won't spawn either with GLOBALS in millions. Maybe if they were in the transition part something different happens but they won't spawn. Already had issues with that and TDD installed. A fresh BG2 game would be fine but with BGT, I dont know.

That looks bad on behalf of TDD. Kagain and Yeslick variables, I believe, are timers. BGT uses Global("<NPCNAME>PartyBG1","GLOBAL",1) checks (set in the transition cutscene) to spawn these guys in BG2.Their stats transfer but for Kagain to spawn just normally as per the TDD mod, his GLOBAL has to be "Kagain"," GLOBAL", 0. When I transitioned I looked at a save and his GLOBAL was in the millions. Yeslick won't spawn either with GLOBALS in millions.

Also, does BGT transfer the stats of only the characters IN YOUR PARTY by the end of BG1 or does it transfer the stats of all of them, regardless of whether they're kicked out or not? I leveled most of the playable NPC characters and wonder if they'll come up with the same stats in BG2.
Thanks a lot. <3 BGT. Best idea ever! :-)
