How does the Dismiss Mechanics work?

If I dismiss a character to make room for another character, where does the dismissed character go and can I call that person back should the need arise?

In the current set up they are supposed to go to Ranger Citidal BUT it does not seem to work, the only 2 characters that stayed were the drunk and the kid from the mines. Chisel was not there when I went back after getting another NPC and taking them to the citidal. [\spoiler]

If you dismiss a character, they hang out. So if you have a full party, dismiss someone to accept a brand new party member, you can immediately dismiss the new guy and pick the old guy back up again.

Anyone you dismiss (then leave the map without) heads back to HQ and waits in the cafeteria. Cause the game is 3D they might be hiding behind a corner there, so look carefully.

If you get the offer for someone to join, you do need to add them to your party at least once before leaving the map. Example: Chisel asks you to join, you have seven party members, say yes, get asked who you want to dismiss, pick Chisel to dismiss, he decides you didn't want him at all.

But, if you swap him in for someone else, then swap again, he counts that as a Yes and will hang out at HQ waiting for you.

So yeah, look for them at HQ in the eatery, don't worry about the dismiss button, it's not Fallout 3 or something where you have to chase them down again.

I'f I dismiss a character before I am allowed to enter the citidel, is the character unaccessible until I am granted permission to enter? I have so much loot and no place left to sell it that all my characters are encumbered. I want to dump all my excess loot (surplus bullets) onto one character and dismiss that character until I have access to the citidel and go on a buying spree. Do we eventually get a storage place?

Odd question, but where is the cafeteria in the Citadel? It mentioned you could get water refills there,but I never located it and I searched so I must have missed it somewhere.

DC has the same dismiss bug as Wasteland 2 did. Whereas the bug has been fixed in regular WL2, it has not been fixed for the DC. When the bug IS fixed, Ralphy will appear in the Cafeteria, at the back right corner. Scotchmo will appear on the back left corner if you ever get and then dismiss him.

One thing I noticed is that their HPs (when you hover the mouse over them) are quite low when they are waiting in the Citadel, but they return to their normal levels (what they were when they were dismissed from the party) when re-hired.
