Legs and Louie

Ever since the Valentine's update I've got trouble with the one hour Job of L&L (interrogating a traitor).
If I give one of them the job, they start it. Then - a couple of minutes later - the other one appears in my character list (the one in the upper left corner) again, and the job has been aborted. Sometimes they will stick to it when I repeat the procedure, sometimes it takes four and more tries.

Has anyone else got this issue?

1. It's interrogate a squealer
2. I have had this problem the first time I ever did the task, after a while it begins to stop.
  • This happen a while back too when you started moving stuff or collecting they would abort the task.
    Try doing nothin with the game and see if that works if not its a more serious bug :/

    I had the same issue for a while and as Subii says just leave them on the task for the hour and come back when they done.

    Although in the past if i remember correctly i think people said they also stopped doing there task when people left the game :?
  • From my experience with this bug (assuming you're encountering the same one I've had forever) editing roads, rivers or boardwalk tiles is what will cancel the task. Pavement used to be an issue as well but since the last update it no longer takes them off the task for me. So we're 1/4 of the way to a solution! :lol:

    This has always been my experience, ever since obtaining Legs and Louie.

    I hadn't noticed the fix to the pavement, but that's because, to avoid knocking them outta sorts, I'm used to only editing my roads and such when they are on a longer task or have yet to be assigned their one-hour duties. :P

    What can I say? Im a risk taker, I'll boldly try to move some trees and such while they interrogate away! Sure I'll inevitably abort the task from time to time and have to send them to the slammer, but this is the price of glory. :lol: :lol:

    Actually I'm still not one hundred percent on the pavement fix, I did accidentally tap some pavement while moving....something....the other day and immediately exited out of editing mode to reset the task only to find them still at it.
  • Thanks for all the information.
    I will try not to lay pavement, tiles etc. while they are on the one hour job.

    Since I have to play the game in German, I simply made a literal translation. I'm sorry, if it was not the correct one. The mistakes in the German Version could fill several threads...
    But you did understand me, didn't you?

    First time poster here, but long time lurker. Have been playing since late July, 2012.

    I too have recently had this issue with Legs and Louie, though have not tried for awhile since I seldom do 1 hr tasks anymore (Frink flying is an exception).

    One addition along the lines of Legs and Louie I would love to see added is the the third person in their goon squad trio, Lips. Add Fat Tony's yacht to Squid Port options with Lips as a character, then have quests involving them dunking guys overboard off the boat, taking girls (Mindy?) our for a ride, ect. Just a long time thought. I will post more in upcoming weeks.

    Just wanted to say hello. Feel free to check out my town and post comments. My user ID is: Theleftboot

    Welcome to the Boards!! Hope to see you posting more in the future!!

    I, too, would like to see Lips added as a character. We'll see what happens in the future.

    Yes, we understood your posts. I'm sure that all of the tasks can translate differently from language to language. I don't know how many different languages the game is available in now, but I am always marveling at the forum members from other nations and especially those that speak multiple languages. Of course, a forum message board can be a difficult place to express or understand people's emotions sometimes. I don't think itchem was necessarily trying to be mean, but I can see how it may have come off that way.

    I have had that same problem before, but haven't attempted the task recently. And I also have ran into the same problem on all joint tasks as well. I hope it is fixed completely soon.
