Breedmaster Spire walls not blocking LoS.

Post by Kalthariam »

In the last big area where the boss of the Breedmaster Spire is, the walls there do not block line of sight, enemy spell casters can cast Offensive Spells, Dispels, and Conjure undead through walls while people are traveling through the area.

Obviously this is not intended behavior, for some reason the walls are not classifying as walls and enemy spellcasters can cast straight through them without any issues.

It's an issue with that tileset's path nodes, which were not assigned by its original creator. Can it be fixed on our end? Yes, but this tileset has 668 tiles. It would be a huge effort, so I'm not sure when it'll happen.

It just really sucks going through that area and getting blasted through walls with dispels that's really the biggest frustration especially since the boss can do it too and she's got high level dispelling that often rips 5+ buffs off a character of level in a single cast (And she has many)

I get it'd be a big issue, I just wasn't sure if it was known or not, so I figured I'd report it.

a lot of tilesets have bad path nodes, even the vanilla ones

but they're really gruesome to fix

Honestly it just needs a different tileset entirely. That tileset is problematic for a few reasons.

I updated the tileset a bit. Would you be willing to try out the dungeon again?
