Another bug to report. An odd one at that, that I have no idea what would cause this.
Possibly more than one involved as well - not sure.
Possible Bug One:
I was afk in creative mode, first of all, and some witch hunters spawned near me. Came back, and one was shooting me, the other was just standing around. Not sure if it should work that way, actually - as far as I know, nothing should aggro you in creative at all. Regardless, arrows were sometimes bouncing off of me, which was a little odd, since I as far as I know if a skeleton hits you in creative you just don't take the damage, but they do stick in you. I did have arrows in me at the time though - so some were hitting, some were bouncing.
Definte Bug, Two:
So, just shortly after the time I came back and noticed this, someone locally accidentally knocked out the wireless so I was DCed abruptly. When I got back on, the hunter was still there, shooting away. (My base is chunkloaded) However, not only should he have stopped, because I wasnt online and thus aggro should've dropped (because of the chunkloading), he had apparently been still shooting the whole time. There was a GIANT pile of arrows stuck in the wall, like so:
Related Definitely-A-Bug:
So,. when I moved away, I noticed he was now completely ignoring me (still in creative), but just gunning away at the wall.
He's been doing this for several minutes now. (Literally as I type this, its still going.) The fire in the left side of that image is his arrow in flight.
I will now drop out of creative, and see if his aggro changes.
It did. He re-focused on me after I dropped into survival.
Possible Bug Four:
I've also noticed that there may be some odd things that summon witch hunters. That, or their spawn rate is insanely high. The wiki page talks about them being attracted by 'evil' witchery rituals, and lists things like curses, voodoo poppet usage, and a few other things. But I've not actually done any of that. In fact, about the only stuff I've been doing is Binding (Familiar), Charging (For stones), and Shifting Seasons (Magical - Ominous Woods). However, I HAVE been using Demon Hearts for my altar - I did summon maybe 4 or 5 Demons to get a few hearts. I expect that would possibly trigger a few hunts. Then again, the wiki says doing stuff like that has a CHANCE to proc them. But I've been getting non-stop witch hunters maybe every 10 minutes for the last 2-3 days (IRL). They just dont ever seem to stop. Does placing or removing a demon heart at an altar count or something? I've been changing the biome for miles around for 2 days, and I'm basically using an altar powered by 2 hearts, an egg, and maybe 1-2 trees. I just up and move it each time I redo the ritual. Or is Rite of Shifting Seasons / specific biomes considered evil or something?
(As I typed that paragraph, I got 2 more sets of witch hunter spawns, incidentally).
I mean, I'm also a vampire, and have a really awful reputation in that village with the infinite spawner I posted about, because I had to kill like 180 villagers, so I realize I should get them occassionally, but this is ridiculous.
That is simply bad luck. I know how it feels to spend eons looking for a specific biome. If you really get desperate, you could use Witchery's rite of shifting seasons to create a jungle, though (using mutandis to get a jungle sapling for the rite).
Do you have biomes of plenty? If you do, spawn in (or locate) some biome essence ore, and mine it, and make a Biome Radar. That's what I did.
Found an odd bug. We're not supposed to be able to get outside, but apparently, using a Hoe of Growth on a Greatwood sapling will cause the roof to break in the places the tree logs are in. You can then break the logs, and escape out. Of course, it teleports you back in and debuffs you, but as far as I can tell, theres no way to repair the wall, because I cant place the wall blocks in creative.
The wall blocks themselves need to be placeable. The is how RandomThings' Spectre blocks work. You cant harvest them, but IF, somehow, you accidently break one, you can at least fix it.
In related news, for some reason I cant seem to be able to conenct to the management tool that lets me update said whitelist. I'll open a ticket with my provider right away, but it means some of you may have to wait a little longer this morning.
I'm setting up a queue to whitelist several people each day. I'll send you a PM when your name comes up in it, so you'll know you've been added.
Whitelist me please! I'm a creative builder and good miner. I would post some pics but idk how :sad.gif:
You can take screenshots with F2 ingame, and use a place like imageshack or photobucket to upload images. Theyll then provide you an IMG code you can past into forums and such.
