As of version JA2_113-v2-37-g9ff8476-Gb8faLa10d (that's from 2025-08-08), Pacos will now follow us into the rebel basement.
Before, he had gone into hiding in Omerta (A10). When we followed him and Fatima, he run into a building and could later be found where he was when we started following them.
Not anymore! No longer will the kid loitering arround unsupervised in a ghost town ...
He will now move to the entrance building (on it's own, doesn't need to be "guided" like Fatima) and then also follow us to the basement.
In there, after the initial dialogue with Miguel, we can talk to him and he'll hand us some small gifts, if we use the right approach.
What we get and what he'll say while handing them will differ wether it's a male or female merc.
He'll only hand those gifts once (per gender) and only if the Food quest is still active (check History to see if that's case, if in doubt).
At the moment, he'll hand Marbles or the Lame Boy Display (planned to change in future for an upcomming project, better consider them placeholders till then. I'll edit the post, if so).

For modders:
The GridNo he is moving to for ending up in front of entrance is 8537
That's hardcoded in one of his npc-actions (in InterfaceDialogue.cpp) and is getting triggered in Fatimas .npc-file (101), not his own.
Same for the npc-action that actualy puts him into basement, also triggered in Fatimas .npc-file.
Be vary to change Pacos npc-record nr. 20, that one is used in code to prevent boxing happening to early (before deliver letter quest is done), so don't change its content (or adjust code, in Overhead.cpp).

Colt .45 Peacemaker wrote on Mon, 11 August 2025 17:27 So if don't have the JA2_113-v2-37-g9ff8476-Gb8faLa10d version, Pacos will not follow us to the basement and the quest will fail ? Is there a link to download it somewhere ? Please advise.
No quest will fail, don't worry.
Before this change, when we followed Fatima to the rebel basement to deliver the letter, Pacos simply staid outside.
So when you use an version before this change, the only thing that will happen is just that, Pacos stays outside.
He's handing out gifts only for the duration of the food quest. But that won't interfere with the quest. That quest will start automaticaly after the initial dialogue by Miguel and Carlos i rebel basement. When we talk to Father Walker in Drassen, he will propmise to send food the next day, and 24h after that the quest will considered to be ended. Once that quest is done, Pacos will simply reply with his standard answers, but no longer gives those small gifts.
Link to latest 1.13, which will contain the change.
This change was made to 1.13 at 2025-08-08. so any version after that date will have it.
