I can't starve my Avatar to death!

Post by Peter Olafson »

Been working on the walkthrough's food and feeding section lately and thought I'd ask after a glitch that occurs in all Exult versions I've seen (both 1.2 and snapshots): The Avatar should suffer from not being fed after his food stat zeroes out, but doesn't. He complains ... but that's it. Is this slated for fixing? Thanks!

Thanks for pointing this out. I'll take a look. It's supposed to work like you've said.

As an interesting tidbit, you couldn't starve NPCs to death in the originals: they would get weaker and weaker, to the point of passing out repeatedly, but they would never actually die.

Looks like I broke the penalty for starving about 6 years ago. It should be fixed now, but I didn't have time to do much testing.
