Default furniture from the platform hideout should correctly disappear after the player takes over the casino.
During poker minigame, the cards dealers lay out on the table will no longer overlap.
Casino ticket will now correctly disappear from the player's inventory after completing the quest to talk to the casino security guard.
The player should now always pass the task with handing over the casino ticket to the security guard.
Guest will no longer see the casino credits a second time, after the questline is completed.
