Known issues versus reported fixes

Suggest a correction to Known issues versus reported fixes

The September 8 notes report fixes for cross-play party transfer, police pathing, residents entering escapes and several interaction prompts. These are developer-reported fixes, not independent resolution tests. A new report needs build, platform, exact symptom and repeat steps. Use party help for connection failures and NPCs for pathing reports.
