Can't attack animals from boats

Post by Vigilance »

if the intended fix to prevent boat combat was meant to apply to animals too, how on earth is one expected to legitimately fight the deep ocean cetaceans?

Not a bug, intended. Jorb was told on Discord, it's a side effect of the boat combat change.

Fight the whale on land as jorb and loftar obviously intend.
