Game Mechanics: Archery target switch

Jimjam · #1 05-26-2015, 07:07 AM

Just found a problem with the new delay on archery...

If I target a mob, hit range attack but then switch target before the arrow hits the arrow will hit whatever I currently have on target rather than whatever I shot at.

Arrows now have collision detection. So if you shoot at target A, and target B intercepts the arrow projectile, target B takes the damage. Could this explain your issue?

He never said the 2nd target was directly in line of his first target.

He never say it wasn't, hence the clarifying question.

Target was across, so I think Thulack has a valid point, but I will experiment with this further just to check out this collision stuff isn't causing the problem.

Good suggestion Worch!
