I have indeed seen my alter-ego and spent waaaaaaay too long online on sunday just in case he vanished, never to return! It was just like looking in a mirror, although I do wear more clothes at this time of year and my ears aren't quite that pointy. I assume that Roddybug starts off in the tavern - I've been in EfU since sunday and he's usually in the party already.

I don't know if it's brilliant scripting or a bug but we had problems on lvl 9 with two henchmen Roddybug and Moric the ranger. Neither would port within the level as the PCs have to, although eventually Moric phased in. Roddybug remained solidly at the entrance to lvl 10 (we were going back up). It was probably just a monster spawning in next to him.

The other thing was a blank journal entry regarding henchmen. I think it was to do with the boss and henchman both being dead at the same time (and losing control of him) and I'm pretty sure that it happened when I was on lvl 12 although there were people on other levels at the time. I would've posted these as bug reports but I think that the porting issue is a game thing, I didn't notice the Journal entry immediately and I haven't followed the format.

Thanks Z, I'm flattered and I'm sure I'll be playing with myself in Undermountain soon. Er, perhaps I should rephrase that....?

Heheh! Glad ya like! He starts out on level 1 near Bump the Ettin. [img]smile.gif[/img] Yeah, I've seen that weird bug with the henchmen, and what I found out is odd: they will usually go through notmal doors fine, but will not enter teleporters usually or triggered transitions. but, if say he is stuck on level 4, and you enter level 5, he should appear at the normal door entrance to level 5. Very weird, so it's gotta be a bug.

I noticed when in battle, he'll keep casting one spell over and over sometimes, I don't know what spell it is though. I'll look into both though, and see what I can do to fix it. I'd like to add loads more options to them.

I soon plan to have a Henchmen on every level. BTW, I started out a new character on level 1, and you saved my butt until I got to a level 7 character! I think the henchmen will really help out new low level players joining--as well as high! :D
