the thing is that in this game the numbers are so small that often you don't notice it. The calculations probably were off, as I said after 321089 gazillion tweaks I did, so tomorrow I'll remove all references to AOE and change them to "hit 3 targets".
Obviously no time to do any other tweaks, also considering most people will play it on Easy or as VN Mode :lol:

No it's the same, they use same identical code, but in practice internally starts with 50% damage on sides, then somehow the damage becomes higher and close to 100%. Will look and see if is possible to keep the AOE and do 50% damage for real (as expected) or not.

OK I managed to implement AOE correctly:

I'll need to test a bit since I have changed the damage calculations, so need to make sure the other skills work as intended, but so far so good :)

OK made the update, it's another important one since the AOE change will impact the game quite a bit. It's obviously harder, since now AOE is a "real AOE". Before was bugged since in practice you could hit 3 characters and do almost 100% damage on all of them :lol:
Of course the change also impact AI, so even the AOE attacks of the computer will be "weaker" (but in reality just "as should always have been"!).
I kept Joanne Sparks damage as it was though, didn't nerf it :)

MakeCombat sounds like an important core functionality.... (first combat in a new game, merchant house, ex-merc noticed that PC wanted to steal the key)

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

and the crash surfaced another bug ; )

the auto save was the first level up (assigning skill points) - on the tab "skills" I see the point left but the portraits don't have the overlay text
