npc respawn [f?]

Post by Madison »

I looked for another bug thread about this but couldn't find it.

roughly every other time Madison kills a Fadebeast, it respawns in the same location. This has happened 4 times today.

Its not just fadebeasts. Its apprentice sorcerers, thieves, blood thieves, vampires and government agents as well. (tested)

I'd say there's at least a 1 in 4 chance of *any* NPC having a double respawn in the same square.

Noticed this as well, and like Ripper said it seems to be able to happen with any npc type. This stuff used to happen on the old grid system but with nowhere near the same frequency. Since coming back, Quoth's record is seven respawns in the same square.

With fadebeasts and the amount of open squares for it to respawn in, I don't feel it should be happening at the frequency it is. Which is why I reported it.

Sorry lost track of this, not sure if my post came off this way or not, but I wasn't trying to imply that it wasn't a bug. Just trying to add supporting evidence.

Okay I *think* this is fixed now. Please post here again if it happens an irregular amount (statistically, it should still happen once in like a 100-1000 battles).

NPC's respawning in the same square has happened to Madison 4 times in the last 2 days in less than 50 battles. (fadebeasts, thieves and NPC vampires)
