Wheel of Time MUD

I had not engaged this patty previously, definitely not since reboot but it aggro'd me immediately

* R HP:Wounded MV:Tiring > Thick Forest
Large, old trees grow close together here. Oaks, elms and ashes abound. To
make progress harder, the ground between the trees is covered in thick
vines and neck-high grass. A small hovel, with a hole in its northern wall
can be seen in the south, and strange, broad leafed trees grow in the east.

You are warranted Seanchan. QG mobs will aggro you.


The Captain of the patrol performed his duties admirably. Well done Sir.

Seems to be working as intended.

I did some testing with Arston and... maybe not?

I warranted him and he went into QG CTF and they did not attack.

So.. maybe a bug maybe not.

Either way as I told Arston "you gonna have a hard time convincing me that a QG patrol that aggro a warranted cross race char is a bug." IF it is a bug... no need to fix it IMO lol.

Yeah, the thing is the behavior is not consistent patty to patty. If that's intended cool. Arston asked me to post it, I'm not complaining about a ls mob aggroing ss if that is the intended behavior.

Right if thats what's intended thats fine. but that CTF along with every other one i have seen

1) doesnt aggro cross race characters.
2) doesnt aggro warranted characters.

They all assist their side in combat but this is the first case I have ever seen where they have actively aggroed. Even when flee stabbing them, you can land a stab on a cross race patrol, melee them all for a bit, flee off, reenter the room and they still wont attack you unless there is another player from their side attacking you (counting their *side* as either DS/LS/SS or if its a clan mob then from their clan)

Unless just being in the room causes them to attack? I have not tested this because any time I am in a room with a cross race side on a CTF I've been trying to kill them and then they assist their side.

Only a few of the LS patrols were set to aggro Seanchan -- it was applied pretty inconsistently (and not in a way that made RP sense either). I updated the rest of them to also aggro Seanchan.

The change will take effect for each CTF the next time it's flipped or on next reboot, whichever comes first for each CTF.
