I havn't read any previous posts on the rerolling issue so if this is already common knowledge I do apologize.? In the same room as a monster and another user I rerolled my character only to find the combat text still scrolling.? By this I mean the orc rogue was still attacking me in, Main menu, character name selection, race selection, class, stats.? It would bleed over the text and by only hitting enter would it refresh the right screen.? This is half the issue, the other half is now that I have rerolled I am in the login room(N,S,E,W,NE,SE,NW,SW,U,D) and the combat text of the monster and another player is still being displayed, still scrolling as if I was standing in a room with a creature and player fighting.? I am also taking damage from this creature and dying from this creature while in a different room.? However the combat text does not scroll through the account login if I RE-log, just Menu selection(Gmud/Password/Logoff) and so on.

Further tinkering resulted in the combat text scrolling even if I move to a different room.? I cannot interact with the other player nor the creature that is being shown in the combat text, however even after dying it continues to scroll and issue damage.

Even more tinkering resulted in me going back into the room of which the original combat text derived from and the results are that the combat text is being doubled.? 10 swings from the user, 2-4 from the monster.? Obviously the swings are still at 5 and the monsters at 1-2, however for me it is doubling the displayed text.

Finally I just wanted to make sure the issue was rerolling in the middle of combat text, whether attacking or standing in the room, so I rerolled again only to find out There are now 2x the displayed messages.? I am not sure if this is an easy fix or not, but you have what I tested and I hope it helps.



Thanks for the detailed explanation.  This should be fixed now.

Just noticed, that once rerolled your hitpoints don't change if you are dropped.? I double checked to see if hitpoints were affected by the health stat and they were not.? Minor detail as far as adjusting which class gets what for hitpoints and which race gets bonuses, but at 50 health and 90 health my dwarf ranger started at 20 hitpoints.

*edit* The hit point click seems to be working, whether it is accurate or not is up to you.  At a high health stat I click 8 hitpoints with 90 health when at 50 health I was clicking 3.
