My gang member Doug Walker is assigned to my Marley, and now I can't unnassign him. He is stuck in the car apparently. I hit the exit button but nothing happens. This wouldn't be too bad, but he is my best driver and I would like to enter him in some vehicle supplied races too.

Assigning drivers to cars in that way has no effect on whether they're in the events. Event entries are entirely controlled through the event page (where you select driver and gunner).

Is the car in an event right now? You won;t be able to add or remove characters while car is in event.

The car isnt in an event. Doug isnt shown in any of my character lists, not the pull down menus for picking drivers for events, not the list for putting someone in training or the hospital, the only place i see him is in the car. I havent entered any events with the car since I put him there, so I am not sure if it will make him the driver automatically. :o

Actually I have a theory (but too late to check it now). I think your gang money might have been below zero this morning at the weekly update, and Doug left you. I forgot to remove him from the car in the 'character leaving gang' code..

You should have been sent a farewell email from Doug?

ROFLMAO yeah thats it, I checked my email just before coming in here. Doug, the only gang member with driving skill left me for lack of funds. That might teach me to lose so many events while having so many members.

Thanks for the help.

No prob B)

What I'll do soon is make a 'recent news' section on your 'my gang' page, where stuff like this will be listed.

Perhaps it should come in as a private message. Also it would be nice if private messages causes an alert to appear in a div over any page that you're looking at (so you don't have to be in the forum to realise you have a message)

Jim:

Yeah, good one.. creating private messages from the game system was something I considered a while back too. It is a nice way to deliver info..

Hmm.. there was something else I was going to alert people to this way also, can't recall what it was now..
