[Bug] Torchbearer Auto-attack

from Demigod Forums

 

On several ocassions I had trouble autoattacking with my Torchbearer (Happened only in Ice Form). And it only occured when targeting towers or an enemy Rook. I would right click and it would either not respond or just face the target and stare at it for eternity.

Wow, that's odd. Put your dxdiag info up, because I don't think it's on the bug roundup, and they need the computer information before they can do much else if they don't know that. Also, try to make it repeat and see what causes it.

I believe that bug occurs when you are attacking from just outside of range. I've noticed Crossbowman do that too.

Well I made sure I was in his face at times and clicked to attack.

 

xthetenth this can't be an issue on my end? How would my computer specs make a difference?

It's probably an issue on your end. And the computer specs probably don't make a difference, but if they do it would make the devs' job much easier and makes them much more likely to look at the bug because they have a lot, so the better documented ones would be the first to get attention. Getting it to repeat is the most important part, though. Does it seem to be random, constant or happen in specific conditions?

It's random but it was always during Ice Form.. Never happened in fire form.

i've noticed this too, but only when the target is just outside the torchbearers range, i'm pretty sure i only noticed it in Ice form as well, but as soon as i moved him closer he attacked, so its most likely not really a bug, maybe the just need to add a TrackingRadius to the TB's Iceform weapon, not sure.

I am getting this also, it is definately not a single user problem

I have noticed some anomalies with his auto-attack, its not entirely consistent but I can't really single out any reproducable actions to get it to occur it just happens randomly.
