icon Aurora Bladeseeker sprites (0)  
In Glum Clove Septence North Twice West (entrance to Smuggler's Maze)
The sprites of Aurora Bladeseeker are "soldier" sprites in stead of her own sprites

EDIT: Also 7N3W (same issue)

RabidChild made sprites for Aurora as well as the others, but we're not using them. We'd like to, but we realised that two of the rooms she appears in rely on the roaches being attracted to her, which is only possible if she's a genuine Soldier.

I know one of those rooms is The Roach Pits 1E but the only other room that might qualify is Inuaro Canyon 1N1E, where none of the monsters are attracted to her.

Anyway, I've scripted something that should solve that problem for The Roach Pits room, just give it Aurora's tiles and it should work.

Edit: I just saw the results and I have to wonder if someone tried to clean up my script. I used "Imperative Ghost Display" for a reason. If it's trying to display her "unsworded body" tiles, just make a new character with an unsworded type that uses only her body tiles.

I've also added a new NPC that will allow the use of her blue-hilted sword. Give the citizen a graphic consisting entirely of Aurora's sword tiles.

Nice fix,
I can also confirm that both Patrons and the Archivist are fixed.
And Gulric Dawnmace sprites are all super!

The True Court Lacky still is a citizen, but I think that's intentionaly, since it's not fixed.
(I'm just writing is in case it's not intentionaly)
EDIT: I just saw that some court Lacky sprites are fixed, I'll repost the rooms where it's forgotten


EDIT2: seems that Glum Cove 7N2W is forgotten
Glum Cove 7N3W is fixed
And The True Court and the Second Audience with the True Court aren't fixed, but that's the part I thought it was intentionaly.

The character in Glum Cove 7N2W is a True Court Lackey, while the one in 7N3W is a Court Lackey.

Jacob, mrimer, is this correct or a bug that needs fixing? Also, should True Court Lackeys share the Court Lackey character tiles?

EDIT: Also, the characters in True Court: Entrance, 1W and 1S1E are Court Lackeys, which seems odd. Intentional?

Upon furthur inspection, you seem to have the sword color thing fixed already. But you'll also notice that in the updated version of my demonstration, I turned down the lights in the room, and the guard doesn't have that bright square around it. I also did a quick expiriment with giving it some sprites from the TSS custom element pack and determined that the problem doesn't involve an issue with custom tiles.

I think I'll leave those scripts here for anyone to download. I'm interested in what people will create if they can get it to work on larger portions of a room.

That part's not my area so I can't say, but I'm fine with whatever looks and feels best.
