controlling a myrk that's in rage

[killerking]

Hey guys,

Yesterday I was able to control a myrkridia that should've been in rage. Actually it was, but it fought with another myrk that was in rage. After that one died, he no longer was in rage. I think this isn't really clear the way I tell it, so I'll provide a replay. It happens a few moments after sudden death starts, at the northeast flag.

p.s. Can't you stop the warlock automatic attacks with some kind of preference???

A berserk myrk will go back to normal if there are no other units around.

[killerking]

Really? Are they supposed to do so?
I can remember situations where they didn't go back to normal for sure.

[Myrd]

I think they are supposed to - at least it's not some weird bug that they do - the code specifically intends this to happen, but it might be a bug if it doesn't happen all the time..

I know for certain that this has always been the case since 1.3. It's just rare in a melee battle that there wont be any friendly or enemy units around after its killed something in lust mode.

I remember a case (terries trow too) in which a rage myrk was the only unit of the team left (it did a 1vs1 with an enemy myrk for the last flag) and it was uncontrollable.

Another interesting thing about Krid rage: if you space-bar a Krid before he goes crazy, he'll just stand there and refuse to attack anything. I'm not sure if that trick still works.

That was fixed in 1.7.1, so if it still happens then it is a bug.
