Water Tornado

Greetings,
The graphic for the water tornado spell has some problems...I really like the new graphics for the spell (good work artists! :wink: ) but it has some technical problems ingame. When casted one can never tell which tile that spell is casted on. This is due to the fact that the spell graphic always appears slightly below/above/to the right/to the left of the tile it is casted on. I would appreciate it if this were fixed. Thank you!

Yes, i showed you that. It is a rather curious way to portray it, but the middle of the tornado is the tile where you are casting. It should be changed.

I have noticed that the water tornado always appears to graphically strike exactly 2 tiles down from where the spell is targeted. If this could be corrected so that the graphic agrees with the target tile shown that would be great. All that needs to be done is for the graphic to be shown two tiles up from where currently it is shown when it is casted.

this problem occurs for quite some more graphics, e.g. the insects.
i will try to find a workaround, which is ONLY temporary and which doesn't needs a recompilation of the client.

yes, please do. The flies are hard to target.

i am sorry. i tried around and it won't be that easy.
i will ask some of our programmin wizards to write a little patch, because i found out that there is no "easy" solution for that problem.

please report all misplaced graphics here.
