Angry leave because of rep in SoD somehow weird

[jastey]

• If in SoD the rep goes too high (for evil NPCs) or too low (for good NPCs), NPCs leave the group accordingly and most give a "I'm leaving angry" dialogue. So far, so good.
• Next step is, that they return to the camp (the according variable is set in their angry-leave dialogue).
• Back in camp, they can be talked to and taken back into the group like nothing happened.
• If the rep is still too high / too low, the cycle repeats and the NPCs randomly leave the group again.
• EDIT: most time, the angry-leave dialogue doesn't repeat since its variable is already set, so the NPC just give their normal kickout dialogue.* (and can be taken back into the group directly).

This might be intended behavior; not having them leave forever but return to camp etc. sounds like a nice feature.

But having them join as if there would be no problem but then randomly leaving again makes this look more like something that wasn't fully designed to the end.

Not sure this is something for the fixpack, but:

*there is increasing player reports about NPCs leaving randomly because of that, so it is a behavior that is perceived as a bug.

did they rejoin for good after you actually increase/decrease your rep? if they do - not a bug.

imo the devs are just being generous sending npc to the camp (just eekeeper your rep, we don't mind) instead of make them just leave forever.

heh, I reloaded and slayer change so many times preventing Viccy from leaving. good times.

Like I said, it's just the "NPC randomly leaves the group and triggers the normal kickout dialogue" (if rep is still off) that feels like a bug.

I'd moreso consider a solution where these NPCs refuse to join the party outright the better path, but that sounds like a tweak IMO and not Fixpack material.
