[435] Fog of War and Dialogue issues

[Sensuki]

 

Expected Result: Sevis should initiate dialogue with me as soon as I can see him. I think the player currently has a larger line of sight than enemies do, which is a bit unfair. I also think that the fog of war edge should be much harder (as in, closer to the black rim), than the current soft edge where characters are obscured by grey fog but still visible.

Just need a slight extension of NPC view range.  Not sure there is any ability in game you can actually use as an opener that would have enough range to be used without getting close enough that the dialog starts anyway.

You can fire any ranged weapon and hit Sevis first. The BB Rogue can hit him from where she's standing in the video.

Are you sure?  I could swear I tested this once with a arquebus and found myself always needing to move just a tad bit closer.  Maybe it has a shorter range than other ranged weapons.  Weapon range should definitely be shorter than the fog of war for obvious reasons, or at best exactly equal to it.

Yeah I'll record it for ya. I think the current range is fine tbh, it's just that the enemies can't see you at the same time as you see them.
