Thread: possible fix for the out of range at 5 meters problem.

we all know how annoying it is to take on long (like snakes) or large (torturs etc.) creatures as teras kasi. you have to run up, get maybe 2 hits in and then run up again and repeat 8 million times. from a coding standpoint it seems to me that this problem would stem from attacking distance being determined from the center of the creature. thats why when you fight humanoids hand to had you can hit but anything that has a even one extra meter between its center and its front is going to be out of range.


now don't get me wrong i'm not saying that this would be necessarily an easy fix. i'm not sure why attack distance is determined from the center but i bet if they changed it from the center to the front of the creature (or perhaps front or back depending on which was closer so you could back attack) we would see an end to the 4-5m out of range messages




SHAZAM! (heh if you've played with me you know)

I have to agree. That becomes annoying after a few fights. I try not tofight those types of monsters if I can avoid it.
