broken BATTLE

Zaggeh · Post by **Zaggeh** » Sat Mar 17, 2012 6:03 am

Notice several things. First, how long it took to kick in. Seconds, how the raven did not attempt to attack me at all before I started fighting it, and third, the "Attack what?" in the middle of the battle before the raven was defeated.

I added some approximate times to help clarify how long it actually took. Not sure if they're 100% accurate or not, but definitely is not working right.

Graveyard, Dead End] (OutFrDt)
The graveyard pathway ends here bordered by thick deadwood trees to the north and a bluff to the south and west. A few graves have been dug here, leaving holes and piles of loose dirt strewn about the area.
The area is mostly quiet.
Also here: a rotting black raven.
Obvious paths: southeast.

ooc I'm not engaging... and actually, the thing I'm fighting, which is normally aggro, isn't trying to engage me either.

This was me too. Rias has a PM about it.

I'm still getting occasional "Attack what?" in the middle of a battle before the hostile I'm fighting is dead. I think that might be another, unrelated, bug.

Yep,

I'm getting it too after a while with the new cocky warriors.

This happens to me when auto-carving, so it's probably something to do with the automated commands in general,not just battle. Every now and then I'll get "Invalid product specified" but then I'll continue on the next second and it works again.
