I didnt see a list in todays patch notes. It says:

[ QUOTE ]
The 'chicken tug' animation is no longer selectable for critters through the Mission Architect UI

[/ QUOTE ]

But I went in to finish an arc and it looks like Jeer is now missing. I caught this because just last nite I set all my mobs to jeer. This morning, not there.

Anything else gone missing? Bug or intended?

EDIT

I found jeering in ENEMY GROUP animations but it isnt an option for bosses anymore from what i can tell

I'm so glad I didn't fix my arc last week only to have it broken again this week.

Any more maps missing? I sent pohsyb a PM regarding last week's patch, and he's read it, but no reply yet.

And for a while things were cold,
They were scared down in their holes
The forest that once was green
Was colored black by those killing machines

Spite. Pure, unbridled spite directed at you. Specifically you.

You did this to us.

Jerk.

It's funny. The only change so far that's cheesed me off is the removal of chicken tug.

Why? WHYYYYY??

Somebody probably stayed up nights figuring out how to use the animation to get something for nothing.

Mayhap the animation was too amusing when compared to the amount of risk necessary to see it.

I [censored] you not: The animation is really long and mobs were getting "stuck" in it. So people were using it for NPC's as an exploit to keep them from being able to attack before a group could come in and wipe out a mob while they were still tugging on their chickens.

So to speak.

And then someone similar to Doc Wormwood cried foul, and thus chicken tug was ruined for all...

<sigh> Viv says its no longer "all me".

Why couldn't he just let us tug our chickens in peace? Did it really affect him? What kind of person gets upset because someone else is tugging their chickens in their own home, not bothering anyone? Just because I might enjoy tugging chickens and you think I should play some other way doesn't mean you have the right to tell me how to amuse myself.

Thank God there's no monkey spanking emote.

Seriously, farmers were doing this?

You know, if I were omnipotent, I'd lose little sleep over removing all trace of these people from history.

It's likely that chicken tug will come back, but be an interruptible emote or just have the animation cycle duration down.

Of course, we're still waiting on the return of various objects and maps that haven't come back either...

for non-custom critters, each character has its own list of animations. They don't all work with everyone.

Or maybe the genetically alter emote that turns into a squat emote....which turns into an egg emote....which turns into the chicken tug.
