    This happened to me when I already had a bounty slip in my inventory. My question is should you be able to obtain multiple slips?

    You can only have one bounty slip at a time. You can't get a second slip even if you run into a second bounty hunter.

    Once you turn in the first slip and compete the quest, it's possible for you to get a new slip the next time you run into a bounty hunter.

    @Sannio Perhaps the dialog can be adjusted in this case - something where if the bounty hunter shows up, instead of the usual dialog, reminds the player that he/she has a bounty slip to turn in - and the player can question them about the locations, like in the original dialog?

    Good idea. I probably won't be able to make that change with the upcoming release, but I'll add it to my task list for next month.

    To expand on this further, you must use the keywords after you complete this (when this quest becomes re-repeatable). Typing in what the keyword says may not work for you.
    We have verified this is working correctly at this time. Thanks to Sannio for being on top of this.

    Very true! There are a few rare conversations where you need to follow the "keyword chain" and don't immediately type the last keyword that gave you the reward the previous time.

    In other words, it might be the case that the "hello" response would include keyword #1, and that response includes keyword #2, which has its own response. Skipping the keyword #1 response by typing in keyword #2 might cause you to miss getting a critical "quest flag" with the #1 response that will change the conversation results!
