Summary0012663: Can't shoot thiefbot
DescriptionThis is weird. Seems like a bug although can never be too sure with all the bots' crazy abilities.

Basically I'm shooting at this Thiefbot but my shot keeps going askew. I can't kill him until he starts walking around.

There is a RadarBot in the Fog of War, to the right of the ThiefBot. Switch to Science, and you ought be able to see it.

That does bring up a valuable change, though: it would make more sense for the RadarBot to only affect Exos when it is alerted. It might also be a good idea for every three hits to 'connect' (basically, a player version of the bot that causes enemies to miss every few shots). Otherwise the only effective way to deal with RadarBots is AoE, which isn't always feasible.

Ah, I see. I like the sound of your improvements.

The other way to deal with radarbots is to shoot next to them with non-AOE, and you'll have a 25% chance of hitting them. I definitely don't want to alter them to just be a percentage, because I think figuring out this is part of the fun.

Thanks!

* RadarBots no longer affect player shots unless they are actually activated.
