Allow NPCs to walk through Chests

well i dont think this should go in the bug section as changing the way it works will benefit in other ways.

So, your on a mission and you notice a certain NPC has fallen behind... (damn togo)

you run back and see:



Now I just dont get why you cant walk through chests.. i mean obviously big chests like chest of woe etc. should work like that but stupid chests like that just jeopardize missions. Its happened ever since the release of prophecies and its not even been looked at (to my knowledge)

So my proposal is:

Make small chests passable, or just make NPC's able to walk through them.

I honestly cant see any downside to making them passable, except if somebody wants to stand in one making it harder for other players to use but i doubt that would happen.

Fix soon please

ps. i am aware that the mission i am on, you do not need togo to follow as there is a cutscene near the end...Before anybody mentions that :P lol and yes, i got my masters reward =D

Edited by Celestial Beaver: Changed thread title to something more relevant.

That's no ordinary chest. That's the Impassable-NPC-Chest-of-DooM. Pops up now and then, it's a pain in the rear, actually.

/signed though for making normal chests passable.

/signed a thousand times over

Also make NPCs not get stuck at shrine priests too.

Best suggestion I've heard....EVER. Bug fixes = win in my book any day.

Well I guess it's not really a bug, more of a huuuuuge AI problem where Togo is as smart as a newborn baby...which he, in fact, is less intellegent than a turnip. GG Togo, Alesia, Kormir, Sister Tai and ever other NPC/Hench I've had problems with.

/signed, I have had this happen to me and it is annoying as hell.

Also had one of my heroes get stuck in a bush once and couldn't get him out of it.

/signed Togo and idiot mhenlo costed me masters a couple of times by getting stuck on the chest of doom in cantha -_-

LOL I just thought of like, a Million jokes to go with that. But I'll let it pass.

They looked scart...oO
/signed!!!!!
And the shrines..omg...NPC stuck party at the shrines!!
And my Moa..he sticks there too...><

/signed x 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 99

These 2 mongoloids cost me masters several times too!

This will only make the game easier for players so there is no reason not to add this.

I agree.

I've had it happen to me while doing the Abaddon's Mouth mission bonus, after having cleared the whole way for her in hard mode.

Nothing like having to restart missions you don't like doing in the first place.

/signed, annoying as all hell.

(waits for someone to Ursan flame Gilburt)

If they can make enemies and allies not-bodyblocking between themselves but bodyblocking with the other faction, they can do this too.

they made a improvement in NF missions so that chests don't spawn during missions, but that didn't fix the root of things

/signed

also, if they do that, make NF missions spawn chest too

/signed
no further explanation needed
this bug is a well known mission failer

Going to go ahead and /sign this. You should not fail a mission because an NPC got stuck on a damn chest. >.>

/signed
nothing like killing freezie only to find koris way back at the start.

/signed

I tried party wipe twice on this to get him unstuck, nothing was working.

/signed, happens to me all the time

/signed. Been screwed over many times.
