Just saw this scroll past, and wondered wtf was going on.? Thought I might have been getting heaps of swings per round, but alas no.? Instead, monsters sometimes aren't attacking.? Can't work out why.

Then while I was trying to test this out, I attacked (well, Mega did it for me), *Combat Engaged*... and waited... and waited.... must've been 15 seconds or so before either party started swinging.? I could hit enter and refresh the room, but neither of us would swing.? I know that during that time Locke hung, so maybe he (or someone) did something nasty to the board.

That explains why the shaman wasn't swinging (and probably why he had so many swings seemingly in a row), but regarding the second part of Ian's story, he should've been swinging.  Hmm...  Will have to keep an eye on this one.

Nice pickup.  Would've taken me ages to trace that one back.

Yeah, that was weird, and I can't see any way to reproduce it.  Best guess is that something unrelated happened to the server (as I said, Locke hung so something might have happened) and it affected combat rounds.  Hopefully we will (or already have) fixed that other bug and this was just a side-effect.

Answer me this one then DC:

[HP=149]: (Resting) a wyvern
*Combat Engaged*
[HP=149]:
Darkwood Forest, Lair
Also here: wyvern, wyvern.
Obvious exits: east, southwest
You hurl your shuriken and strike wyvern for 5 damage!
You hurl your shuriken and strike wyvern for 2 damage!
You critically hurl your shuriken and strike wyvern for 35 damage!
You hurl your shuriken and strike wyvern for 4 damage!
You hurl your shuriken and strike wyvern for 14 damage!
The wyvern swoops down and grips you in its claws!
The wyvern lunges at you with its stinger, but misses!
[HP=143]:

The wyvern swoops down and grips you in its claws!
This seems to damage me, without displaying a decent descriptive message.? After checking mmud explorer, I assume the wyvern is then supposed to "drop" me.

Looks like hit spells aren't implemented yet? [??] I'm also curious how you only took 6 damage (should be 12-30).

[Ian]

It's cos I rule!

I might have suggested that round coincided with a hp regen tick, but I saw them take 6 off other times also.  So I can't really help you, I don't know enough mud maths.  I've got 20/1 and I'm a HOG ninja  ;D

I improperly coded mres.? Going to fix that now. ;)

Or that could be DR?
