ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

a whole lot of kinds of this happen. yet they never get angry at each other either.

auras do this. why stand next to the dude who is freezing your skin off?

projectiles do this. someone spits acid, hits all his buddies, they are liek, no prob dude it happens, we just all need to kill this random person here, go ahead and keep spitting acid on us, its for the greater good!

Can we just blame it on the two main bad guys and call it a day?

No. We can't.

Because it's not just enemies. AI allies with a few specifically coded exceptions also do not attempt to avoid friendly fire. Most of the complaints are made about skeleton mages, but temporal explorer escorts also routinely shoot the person they asked to defend them in the back.

Friendly fire code already does exist because hydras use it so this shouldn't be a difficult problem.

snow giant thunderers in a vault now just electrocuting one another with lightning bolts for like 80dam each per turn. they should be able to control their magic enough not to do that to each other.

has this issue been fixed?

i dont want to ask that on every issue i once reported but how would i know. if i decide to play again id want to know ahead of time about things that i used to have issues with. wish there was some indicator on the threads.

Have you checked the change lists?

i've seen them but looking at the many pages of reported bugs and ideas, average players like me wouldnt know what here was actually fixed or acted on. its so much easier for normal player to know if something is fixed if the subject here noted so. otherwise its just pages and pages from people and then looking through many change lists that often aren't very understandable to an average player.
