Didn't see an active comprehensive bug thread... If I missed it please delete this topic.
I was very careful about my installation so I don't believe I have any conflicting mods. I noticed you could attack some of the dialog triggered improved NPCs without repercussion. They would stand there while I pound on them, drinking potions until they finally died, never turning hostile. Initiating dialog was the only way to trigger hostility. This occured with Borinall and Samia. I'd imagine this may be the case with other NPCs as well so I'll keep an eye out. |

I noticed one or two things as well, in my last game of 4.2:
The slaver wizard in the slaver's hold in athkatla has endless chain lightnings. And also, if you summon a project image with immunity: divination around firkraag, he'll get stuck casting remove magics, only he'll target the closest member of your party rather than the project image. There's also several other bugs with vanilla bg that probably warrant attention; I could send you a PM sikret, if you want. |

Confirmed and fixed for v4.3. Thanks.

Just checked his script and didn't find any such bug. Please test it, thetruth!

 Cheating is not confined to using external software or the console commands. Abusing the flaws and limitations of the game engine to do something that a human Dungeon Master would not accept or allow is cheating. |

Please test it, thetruth! leonidas, thetruth has not been online since the time I asked him to perform this test, but I found some free time to test it myself (I tested it with Abazigal though because he was nearer and uses the same tactics against clones) and I'm pretty sure that the mentioned bug does not exist in my game. The remove magic is cast directly at the clone (not on the PC) even when the pc is a closer target than the clone; and once the remove magic is cast the clone is destroyed and there is never any need to a second dispel magic. everything works as intended. Still, I ask thetruth to test it again for 100% certainty (and if Firkraag somehow mysteriously behaves different than Abazigal, he will tell me and I will fix it).

Hrm, it definitely happened, so there must be something else going on, that I haven't described to you. I'll try and replicate it. |
