[1.6.7] Can't cancel Temporal Form prodigy abilities

#1 Post by WonderingMonster »

When using talents like Throw Bomb, talents from items etc, you see the area that will be affected or the path a projectile will follow after you click on the talent button, as you move your cursor. You can cancel using the talent by either right clicking the mouse or pressing escape. However, if you're in Temporal Form from the prodigy, the corresponding Anomaly Temporal Storm and Anomaly Flawed Design talents behave differently: right clicking or hitting escape will trigger them centered on yourself, so there's no way to cancel using them if you don't like your targeting options. That seems like a bug. I also experienced this in 1.6.6.

This is probably because the related PM ability, Induce Anomaly, can't be cancelled because you don't know anomaly you will get until you cast it, and so allowing it to be cancelled would give the player free information. I agree there is no reason that the Temporal Form anomalies need to behave this way though.

That explains it indeed. I submitted a patch: https://git.net-core.org/tome/t-engine4 ... quests/620
