In other IRE games, beckon doesn't work if you're prone, or if someone is blocking the exit, but here it seems prettymuch unblockable. What does and doesn't stop it?

Ok, after some testing and talking to nihilists beckon is apparently bugged. Though now that I think on it, I think I bugged this months ago. If it's supposed to not be blocked by shield, being prone or a blocked exit (no idea how they wander off through such things), then the message for it should be changed. If it is supposed to be blocked by what blocks it in other games, it's been months, fix it already, sheesh.

siting down will stop it, someone who is blocking the exit will stop it.

Room beckon never was stopped by shield.
The bug is:
- You can be beckoned when prone/off equilibrium.
- You can't beckon from a room in city/commune defences.
I think this is caused by some coder changing beckon to stop it working from city/commune defences, by turning it into a sort of one-room-summon.
In my opinion it should be the same as it was in Achaea:
- You can only beckon people if they're able to move normally.
- Room beckon beckons everyone in adjacent rooms, not just enemies, and ignores shields (targeted beckon stopped by shield).
- You can beckon people in blocked rooms if you beckon the blockers also.

Your idea is fine Amaru, that is how it should work. However, a doubleblock should stop the blockers from being summoned.

Yeah, I have to agree having beckon myself..double block should stop it as well as sitting down and icewalls.

And being off equilibrium.

You are paralysed and unable to do that.

Your state of paralysis prevents you from doing that.

You feel yourself compelled to leave the room, beckoned by the will of a
celestial archangel.
