Not sure about the carnival of death bit ? Maybe download a patch ?

About Tin Can Bill... You need to have spoken to atleast one tramp to find out infomation about him (there is one opposite Confession in downtown and should be standing near a fire). You then need to go past the warehouse opposite the last round and you should see a chain link fence with a dumpster behind it, behind that dumpster will be Tin can bill.

If there is a truck obstructing the alley, chances are you need to talk to some tramps for info on T.C.B

Hope this helps

Once you're stuck, no. Not even the noclip command will get you free. Here's what you can do to avoid it, though:

When you enter the building, walk around the bum and try to position yourself so that when you talk to him, you're facing the door you came in through. When the dialogue is over, you'll still move, but you should be in a position that doesn't get you stuck.

The problem is that if you have the exit to your back when the dialogue ends, the bum leaves the building and pushes you aside. You end up getting stuck in the wall, or between the wall and some debri.

poppolulu is correct about Tin Can Bill. You just need to find a bum in the streets to talk to and tell you where he's at. Then the truck in his alley will clear out and you'll be able to reach him.

Btw

the guy with the tape that Isaac asks you to speak to has the same problem - if you stand in the wrong place, when it turns to the cut-scene, he runs into you and cannot get past. ever.

Neither problem is a biggie. With the bum in the warehouse, you don't have to get behind him - just get as far right as you can before you initiate dialog, because he's going to his right.

Same with the tape guy. Run around until you're standing directly in front of him before initiating dialog, because he's going to his left.
