If an NPC with the imperative “pushable by body” or “pushable by both” is placed on top of a wall, the player is still able to push the NPC off the wall using his body, landing the player on top of the wall. This only happens when there's nothing blocking the NPC in the direction you're trying to push it.

The bug also occurs if the NPC is placed on top of tarstuff, bombs, obstacles, relay stations, and red, green, blue and black doors, but not when placed on fluff, briar, seeding becons, yellow doors, orbs, water and pits.

As far as I can tell, mimics and temporal projections don't have this problem, and are always blocked by the obstacles.

I'm running DROD 5.1.0.6505, non-steam version.

A belated "thank you!" for the report.

Hyperme has implemented a fix and functional testing for this in 5.1.1.
