[1.0.4] Can't target enemies with spells across holes

#1 Post by theodicy »

Noticed in the Maze that I can't target an enemy with a spell across one of the holes in the floor.

Holes also break auto-explore. It gets stuck moving into the hole when there's still stuff to explore on the level.

There's also an issue of targetting enemies in darkness near obstructions. The projectile path becomes a straight line (reasonable), but if the (incorrect) path intersects a barrier, the game won't let you actually execute many ranged skills because the path is blocked. It can be literally impossible to attack enemies just 2 or 3 tiles away even with a clear path to the target.

Seconded. I totally forgot about this. Incredibly annoying.
