Siege weapon bugs in New Frontiers

[rynnor]

I wonder if anyone else has experienced any of the following (particularly the third one):

-Boiling Oil 'missing' targets in its area of effect.

-Having a Ram on a keep door that couldnt be hit by Boiling Oil.

-Excessive Linkdeads when hitting multiple targets in the area of effect of boiling oil.

-When using targetted siege weapons if your target dies and doesnt release you can continue to shoot and 'damage' them...

I have raised them all on rightnow - just wondered if anyone else has found any oddities...

That one's fun and should stay, funny to hear the dead player groan as if taking damage

Its quite handy if people are gathered around them too and you dont tend to miss dead folks much...

Its not only with siege that you can damage someone when they are dead also with arrow's I've noticed, if your arrow is in the air when the person dies and that person will get the damage after he releases at the pk (would be fun if it was a crit shot that was in the air so once the person released he got insta killed at the pk again if he was a caster or any other low hp class).

And boiling oil doesn't effect people that hit the door from the side, so basically you cant hit a tank with it who is hitting the door from the side.
Never had the ram + oil problem but I hope you know that if you are in a ram you are partially protected from oil resulting in much lower damage from boiling oil.

Yep the side thing I know about but the misses I noticed most were on non-moving objects like abandoned rams - you can hit them a number of times but occasionally you 'miss' for no reason - I suspect it happens for players too but its a bit chaotic when killing people on the door to check this in detail

On the ram one the ram was actually thru the keep door - I had killed the two ram users but the ram was still in position and freakily could not be hit by the oil. I have destroyed a fair number of rams using the oil in NF but on this occasion it didnt work...

That's happened to me many times (I think that's what it is anyway) but you get the message "You are transitioning and would have taken XXX damage" - but you don't actually lose any health - you do make the grunting noise like when you get hit which is quite strange though.
