Bug with beast fight.

[Hayagriva]

In combat mode, the “Beasts” cannot go under village claim. They begin to flee.
Additional info. Ants can get through

not a bug, new feature to stop bug mechanics.

Problem: animals use to be able to break peoples stuff when dragged thought claims, problematic at the start of a world or newbies claims where a boar would simply break thought a gate and then a player with theft could get in without needing vandalism.
fix: make animals unable to break stuff unless the aggroed player had vandalism on the claim
exploit: remove vandalism from friends and give them all other perms, allowing them to make "traps" because animals could not break stuff anymore
fix: disallow animals to enter claims at all while aggroed, this does not include critters (ants are either considered a critter or have no hitbox)

A “Village” claim isn't the kind you can just make. Second, I'm absolutely certain this is something new, because I often cite animals and didn't have any problems with the claim at least two weeks ago.

you are correct, this was sneakily shadow patched by Jorbtar during the last update!

Its yet another anti cheese mechanic that got added.

And you can use this anti cheese mechanic to cheese animals

this guy doesn't know animals that are in combat with someone that does not have vandalism permissions can't break things on the claim unless they're also aggroed by someone with vandal perms, and it's been like this since at least world 11 afaik (that's when I started playing, idk if it was added before)
