Summary0010705: Grays can assist you past Frozen Grays and even Shadow Man.
DescriptionTo my horror, the other day, the Lurker that hangs out near Shadow Man at the end of Snow Hill actually hit me, sending me onto the other side of Shadow Man! Normally this would get a player one-hit-killed, but Shadow Man is actually unable to walk north and south on that narrow strip of land. I resolved the issue by placing N/E tags between Shadow Man and that Gray, though the Gray's unwillingness to walk those few tiles is indeed inelegant.

Today, I was playing the Venetian Freeze level and I was *almost* to the water bucket. Alas, a Frozen Gray stood in the way and I hadn't saved a spear for the occasion. Suddenly a Crazed Gray slammed into me, sending me past that Frozen Gray without disturbing it! I took the water barrel and went to work. ;)

We also have Golden Frozen Grays and certain places where players should not be able to reach, not even via moving Gray's assist. So I wonder -- can you make certain enemies as solid as walls, or must we simply be careful in our design practices?

Thanks!

* Shadow Man, Shadow Children, and Frozen Grays of all sorts are now able to strike the player through the flashing invincibility status.
** These supremely dangerous enemies couldn't fully perform their duties if the player was ever able to be invincible against them.

That's perfect! I'll go back and remove the no-longer-necessary N/E tags that were keeping common enemies away from these guardians.
