Champion orientation and making potions, v0.21

Post by Gambit37 »

Here's a weird one. If you're champion has turned to face an enemy, and casts a potion into a flask, he turns to face forward!

I realise this is probably connected to the fact that champions automtically turn around when casting offensive spells, but it doesn't make sense for a potion surely?

I think turning spellcasters automatically is not a good idea. I remember as I was surrounded by monsters and my spellcasters was turned back (facing a group of monsters) and I used my front-line fighters to smash enemies in the front by the weapons and my "turned" spellcasters to slay monsters on the back.

How it worked in DM though

Ok, this is more a suggestion, but once again the ability to lock characters would be fantastic - i was playing normal DM in a monster flood and not knowing where i was hitting half the time was annoyign beyond belief
Was unable to (permenantly) kill off ian_scho (Haynuus), Ameena, oh_brother (Westian), money (Falkor), raixel (Petal) and Lord_Bones (Aurek) in the DM D&D game Time's Champions!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE WHO MADE THE GAME WHAT IT WAS - GREAT!
