    Title: We're too late! He's dead!

    Issue: Wounded Guard (Winslow) unresponsive to trying to start a conversation through double click, doesn't have any animation on the floor for that matter, if that's atypical for him. Hilariously though I did get a "watch yourself!" from walking over him when first entering the building. Oh, speaking of that- why is he on the floor? There's a double bunk right next to him and his fellow officers won't even pick him up and put him on one.

    Workaround: Well, as soon as I tried to let another player know in local, suddenly I was talking to the wounded guard instead in a new tab, so that happened. I suppose that changes the nature of the issue itself entirely. He's not dead, he's just really really shy.

    At the time of this report we were experiencing some server irregularities that was gunking up being able to interact appropriately with NPCs. Can you confirm if you're still experiencing this issue? Thank you for reporting.

    It took 2 attempts but it shows the 'winslow is asleep healing with the herbs you gave him' message pretty quickly.

    He's not responsive for me. I did at least a hundred clicks. I verified I can interact with other NPC's in the area. Build 376, is it? The current build.

    Is there going to be a patch this release to try to wake up Winslow? If not, I'll stop kicking him in the head and move on to other things. Which reminds me, how about a "kick" emote?

    There might be one more patch this release to fix some of the bigger issues. Winslow being asleep not likely to be one of them. Bug submitted. He is indeed seeming sleepy.

    Thanks @Attenwood for the reply.

    Thanks for this tip, I did the same. Once I typed his name in local, he replied. Then I typed *elixir* and a trade window opened so I was able to complete the quest.
