That's odd... I tested this a little bit with the default bonca, and while it does miss a lot, it hits Dink pretty regularly too. After giving it 50 distance and 50 range, it hits Dink every time from straight directions. It does miss when you're standing diagonally away from it, but the bonca doesn't do that so often that you could just stand still.


The diagonally away thing is exactly what's going on all the time. I walk up to a screen with a bonca on it and stop moving. The bonca moves to me and stops diagonally away from me (My direction is 8), swipes its tail and misses me. Then the attack_wait triggers and so the bonca moves towards me and deals touch damage. Now two things can happen: 1) it hits me next time because during its attack_wait it accidently moved into a good position or 2) he swipes into thin air again from some other location.

This is just really frustrating and I don't remember it being so... dumb.
