I'm wondering what everyone thinks of mobs that do acts, or
skills 0 ms after you enter a room. Personally I think this is
wrong. Actually cheating on mobs part, and poor form on a
builders part. I think it tends to make people not go to an
area if stuff like this happens, I would think builders would
want to avoid that. The specific mob I'm referring too
are pilots in indust. In the area which is called Somme I think
always get the names confused.

Yes and I noticed that most of the HOL mobs.. Sansaria for example have be
en changed.. Sansaria now kicks you upon entering the room while agg..
and he does it immediately.. Dew does his special immediately as well.

It's very easy to make mobs "cheat" -- particularly on accident.
You should point them out to the area's builder, and see what
they have to say.

Well actually it looked more like a bug to me. Err every mob that
does an act upon your entrance into the room. I think if you try
youll find this to be the case. Big Jim is one if I remember right.
Kordan has been like this for a looong time, but since its hol mob
I never really considered it cheating. Aren't these all using the
same acts, or code? It would be nice if a small wait was added
to simulate them noticing you entering. Fast enough that you needed
to type fairly quickly, but not so fast it was impossible.
On these type mobs its actually worse if they start fleeing.
Please look at it. Ill also bug report it.
