Becoming unhidden if trying to attack while still on timer (
Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008 at 11:37 pm
I've noticed (not sure if its just recently) that if I'm hidden and try to attack someone, and it asks me to wait 1 sec(or whatever), I become unhidden.

I agree that I should become unhidden if I try and attack/yawn/get stuff, but if the timer prevents me from doing the action that'd make me unhidden, then I don't think I should become unhidden :p

I'll try and post a cap asap, just that my hiding sucks at the moment.

Cheers,
Eden

Is your auto-attack on?

I don't think it's related to autoattack - I've noticed it too, but all you have to do is not attack.

Example would be:
You see: 2 lilac ladies.
: k l
You hit the lilac lady for 100 damage.
You killed the lilac lady.
: hide
You attempt to hide in the shadows.
You slip into the shadows unnoticed.
: k l
You have become unhidden.
Please wait 2.0 seconds.


You only become hidden if you have a delay on, and the mob you want to attack is there. If you were to type k l when there was no lilac lady, then you wouldn't unhide.

Autoattack is on now, yes, but it wasn't earlier, so it doens't make a difference. It happens on Eden too, which I never set autoattack.

Btw, I noticed another bug (related), but didn't think it needed a separate thread. If I'm hidden and I disarm, I'm still hidden.

You gain 5 experience for the death of the gutter rat.
(23 H 7 M 326X): disarm
That isn't here.
(23 H 7 M 326X): You didn't find anything.
(23 H 7 M 326X): You attempt to hide in the shadows.
You slip into the shadows unnoticed.
(23 H 7 M 326X): You removed a grim stiletto (+1)
(23 H 7 M 326X): sc
Kheldar the Pickpocket/Apprentice (level 2) *Hidden*
23/ 23 Hit Points 7/ 7 Magic Points Armor: 0 (0%)
674 Experience 194 Gold Pieces XP Needed: 326

Not sure whether its deliberate or not, but I don't think it should be this way(I guess).

Cheers,
Eden
