Game Mechanics: You brokeded charm!

[Jete]

Haynar: Added charm fading, for gate/evac to same zone and death, to aid in preventing faction wars.

I believe this is what caused the issue-

To be more specific, while using charm in a group or raid setting every 2-3 seconds the charmed mob will try to hit the nearest character instead of the intended target or nearest actual threat. I'm making a youtube video as we speak to show this.

this was actually happening before the patch (as in since the server came back up. Dunno if this helps.

[Jete]

Probably will actually I was trying to help the devs figure out what code broke it.. you remember what day specifically by chance?

The changes I made only trigger on the owner dying or gating. So if you are having problems with mobs hitting nearest character, right after the owner gates or dies, then yep, its my fault.

Otherwise, I am not sure what is causing the issue. More details would be helpful, if you can figure out the conditions that they occur.

Somehow we had a faction war go on in Hate last night and the only enchanter there says he didn't charm anything. There was a bard there, but I can't imagine he did anything either. Monk's were trying to pull/getting fear'd and all of a sudden mobs were all over each other.

It was actually happening before the server went down, too.
Not as much, though.

Speaking of charmed pets. Never use to be able to target them with F8 when they where charmed. Now they on p99 you can target them, they are not being treated as a non npc mob when charmed.

Can't remember but i don't think you can F1 twice to target them either. Again this would be because it's not recognising them as a pet.
