    Guildleve Exchange -- Text -- Awkward Highlight and Incorrect Punctuation

    When the player goes to exchange completed levequests at one of the guildleve counters, the following text appears from the guildleve giver (Gontrant is used in the following example):

    "
    Gontrant: Ahem, yes. Well, one
    cannot deny that you have made
    an effort to assist the citizenry
    of our realm, and for that I
    suppose you deserve some sort of
    formal commendation. Here,
    please accept this leve in
    exchange for your services.
    Complete it and you shall receive
    an additional 4,000 gil).
    "

    This is incorrect for the following two reasons:
    1. It seems awkward that the entire phrase "an additional 4,000 gil" is highlighted.
    2. An extraneous ")" is appearing after gil.

    Please fix this issues by highlighting only the reward "4,000 gil" (or by removing the highlighting altogether) and by removing the ")" that appears after gil.

    The corrected text might appear as follows:

    "
    Gontrant: Ahem, yes. Well, one
    cannot deny that you have made
    an effort to assist the citizenry
    of our realm, and for that I
    suppose you deserve some sort of
    formal commendation. Here,
    please accept this leve in
    exchange for your services.
    Complete it and you shall receive
    an additional 4,000 gil.
    "

    I found it distracting at first, but am getting accustomed to it.

    I also suspect it may not be plausible to remove the highlighting from "an additional" due to macro issues and the relevant indefinite articles being included with the item names in this area's database.

    Both fixes have been made and will go live in a future patch. Thanks, Merm.

    Hey, I just wanted to chime in on this issue. I've been offered something besides "Additional xxxx gil" and noticed something...



    Should this say "an additional 400 THM marks", like it says "an additional xxxx gil"?

    The leve that popped up said it rewarded ~2,000 THM marks, so it would be 'additional'.

    Excellent catch, Raldo.
    You are 100% correct. "an additional" should be showing, no matter what the bonus.
    I've updated the file, and the fix should make it into the game by patch 1.20 at the latest.
