doesn't occur often. see screenshot.

Ouch, just what I fea.... Oh wait you're using 2.4 right, if so, the patch I made about shooting stunned actors on the ground also addresses this, so this should be already fixed in master.
But in case you're using a recent 2.5-dev version I'd like to hear about this.

haha, no, it's 2.4 hence posted in the 2.4 bug forum
;D

of course. the corpse blocks fire but is usually lower and you shoot above it. but in this case the corpse is lying a little bit higher and thus blocks the line of fire. this is not a bug -at least not in this case
-
hmm, you're probably right. I took that shot btw, and did score a hit, so line of fire was not *entirely* blocked.
btw from recent "bleeding wounds" discussion I was under the impression that in 2.4 corpses were supposed to be "immaterial", untargettable.

Indeed, they are non-solid objects, in the server side of the game, the client side still considers them solid, but since all the action happens server-side, the seemingly blocked LoF is only a cosmetic defect, server-side the shoots will go right through the body and into whatever is across.
