Description

In HeXen, Reivers have jittery movement in melee due to the games movement code trying to move the bad guy up and down at the same time; the Reivers up/down motion while moving and the auto raise/lower to target conflict with each other.

This is more noticeable in Dday than the original game, due to Dday interpolating (turning off the interpolation makes it less noticeable).

It’s probably not really worth the effort to do anything for such a trivial and specific thing and it may not even be possible to do anything without altering the Reivers behaviour, which is of course a no no. But I figure I might as well post an RFE so that something might be done about it someday.

I must say that during my recent playthrough of Hexen, I did not notice this at all and thus I wonder if it is very beneficial to spend time on it.
