Abusement of bad game mechanics
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Me and Frutti were in Sewers to get some money (and xp) cause I was almost naked  |
| (had halberd, fgc, buckler). So we heard mobs yelling orc in Tharbad and ran outa |
| Sewers. I tracked and found out he in bakery, door locked. Couldn't open cause    |
| south gate guards were standing there, aggressive to everyone. That what happened |
| next was a total nightmare.                                                       |
|                                                                                   |

Both n and s gateguards are aggressive, when drawn out of their normal positions.

There are zillions of strange and stupid bugs in muddle, some of them are getting fixed, but too slow it seems. Justice system on puke side is priority nr.1 to fix imho, but it seemes management thinks otherwise...
Deor2000-11-11 20:35:00
There is a mudller specifically assigned to fix small mudlle bugs like this and he is overworked :P The lack of quality people with coding experience at management level is a problem, but most decent coders have too much rl responsibility anyway. It's an unwritten rule that says once you get promoted to mudller you automatically get promoted to some ungodly job with an ungodly salary in rl which takes you away from the game. It's a curse :P
Rackhir2000-11-11 21:13:32
You should have bash dis guard and hitted orc but still think you would have died

Lemme guess, orcie was Gretna? :O)
Comforts to Gildur :O(
Zeveron2000-11-12 00:08:14
Think I wrote about that bug some year ago on "bug"
But apparently Gods prefer to change/hide and or downgrade some things be4
fixing bugs

Mobs hit 1.player if you agg. Orc left room, and came back, so you became 1. player, meaning they hitted you.
