Greydwarfs Don't Circle
This mod makes a small change to the behavior of Greydwarfs, Greylings, Greydwarf Brutes, and Greydwarf Shammans.
Features
Removes circling behavior from Greydwarfs, Greylings, Greydwarf Brutes, and Greydwarf Shammans
Explanation
During combat, enemies will sometimes run around the player. The game refers to this behavior as 'circling'. The enemy does this for a few seconds and at a certain distance from the player. As I fought more Greydwarfs, Greylings, etc... I noticed this behavior would result in me chacing them around attempting to kill them. A classic fight with a Greydwarf / Greyling usually involved: I melee them, they melee me, they run away (completing their 'circling' behavior) and I chase them attempting to melee again. Once they stop running I finish them with a melee attack. I created this mod to make Greydwarfs (etc..) less of an annoyance to fight while using melee. Do note, I assume this mod will cause these monsters to surround you more often since they will always be approaching you. Some may find this more challenging.
Note
Should work on dedicated servers if you add it to both client and server.
Optional
Optional feature to remove circling behavior from Deathsquitos. Enabled via configuration menu. If enabled the Deathsquitos will not circle and instead just follow along the player.
