No need to mention spoilers in bugs right? Anyway, the title's probably obscure enough.

The game removes the mining helmet from inventory after the first dialog price option that Freddy accepts, and I close the dialog box and confirm the helmet is gone from inventory, and stygians went up the right amount. However I'm able to restart dialogue and have the asking price dialogue again, exactly one more time, giving the option to double the payment, and it's pretty clear it isn't intentional.

It's after the final boss, so it's not that important in this game, but if the ending implies that choices may carry over into a sequel, it might be something to look at, since it gives a possibility of an easy extra 200-1000 stygian. Also, somebody else is bound to mention it, if only to log it. Also, who knows? Maybe it's not the only dialog where this glitch takes place, depending on how dialog was implemented.

Ta-na-na na na - another bug bites the dust!

Epeli already brought that one to our attention, so it has already been fixed for the next patch. Also, other dialogs shouldn't have this problem. :)
