    You probably stood to close. If they "see" you do it, they attack.

    Ah, that's why. Usually I do that while thier back is turned, or I am very very far away, but within the screen, possibly even facing the other way.

    I see. So that's why they turn hostile. :/

    They should have included an option for dynamite to detonate instantly if a fire spell was cast on it. A line of dynamite and Fire Wall would have been nice. Of course, there's the magick/technology conflict to pay attention to.

    Of course, if they did that, you’d run the risk of exploding every time you took fire damage and there was dynamite in your inventory. That would be interesting.

    I still think I should be ale to throw the nitro glycerin bottles and have them explode.

    Or shoot explosives and have them go off.

    That's a cool idea. So I take it that it's not possible, huh? :???:

    heh, I remember setting real time instead of turn based on that one. Then I saved, took the time on the dynamite (11secs), loaded, and then placed the dymamite between the two tents and pulled the doc and the other guards there just before it exploded. Took a few tries but it worked.
