Arrows with Tracers

If you set the tracer chance to anything but 0 for projectiles fired from bows (even if you set type Missile) the arrow will actually fly in from far over your right shoulder, and just tumble through the air like it's aerodynamically challenged. --Darkconsole (talk) 2014-11-24T20:20:26 (EST)

Bug with beams getting stuck

Sometimes, if you fire a beam spell rapidly, one of the beams will get stuck -- it won't be deleted when it's supposed to, and in fact it is often possible to select the leftover beam in the console. From that point forward, all successive attempts at firing the spell will reuse that leftover beam and its hit position, and this problem will be baked into the save. There's a reliable solution for the end user: pass through a loading screen and into another space, and then cast the spell again. However, there appears to be no way to stop the bug from happening; this is an engine-level bug.

Based on when I've seen it happening in my tests, I suspect the problem stems from the beam spell being fired too rapidly at a small area: it seems as if the problem might happen if one beam hits another beam of the same type. DavidJCobb (talk) 2016-08-27T00:16:30 (EDT)
