I can't kill dream seeds at all because of this bug. When I would damage them, I get this error in the log:

LOG]	Dream seed's mind suffers #YELLOW#1 psi#LAST# damage from the attack.
[LOG]	The damage shield reflects 1 damage back to Dream seed!

(I have mindslayer shields/auras on, if it's relevant)

Add: MORE nasty bugs upon getting Dreamscaped...apparently Mindslayers and dreams don't play well together

This is actually a damage shield bug. One I believe darkgod already fixed in trunk.

Did you have the same errors in the dreamscape?

Posted: **Sun Aug 26, 2012 1:26 am**

I did have lots of errors, fairly likely some were indeed damage shield related.

More specifically...

/mod/class/Actor.lua

attempt to compare nil with number
stack traceback:
/mod/class/Actor.lua

in function 'onTakeHit'

Is the damage shield bug. Everything else in that traceback is just explaining how the stack got to that point.

You swung at it with your TK weapon, that triggered backlash, you didn't have a shield up but for some reason the game thought you did (the bug), you took a hit from backlash, the take hit function tried to compare your non-existent shield to a number, Lua errors ensued

Were the dreamscape errors more Actor 1612 errors? I'm guessing the logs gone but if it's not and they're a different error I'd like to see them
