[0.9.9.7|G|Win7] Targeting bug

(1/1)

Orvus:


I took a Tracking Map at the Military Base and was trying to target a goon outside of my FOV using the mouse.



As long as the cursor is 1 tile away from him, everything works fine. But when it's ON him...



...he appears to be protected by a mysterious space-time singularity. Also, when I move it past him (as long as I keep him in the line of fire)...



This happens.

I fired at him and missed. Maybe the bullet did follow the trajectory shown on screen (i.e. it avoided the sergeant and hit a wall) but it's also possible that it just missed. I was able to hit and kill the guy after he got 1 tile closer (still outside my FOV).

In case it's relevant, I have Intuition(2).

EDIT: Apparently it had nothing to do with the monster. The targeting feature just does that. Was I the only one who never noticed it?

Klear:
Yeah, this is known. If you shot aiming as in picture 2, you'd probably hit him. The weird thing in picutres 3 and 4 is a bug, though in this case you must have hit the wall well before it was relevant.

LuckyDee:
Good call. Happens under WinXP as well. Wonder why I never reported this...

Evilpotatoe:
Lines of sight and targeting are alas completely buggy, and I think they have always been like this.
To me, it should be current n°1 priority. just look at this example...   the way shotgun and cornershooting work, or enemies randomly attacking you from out-of-sight tiles isn't really better.
