Damn, they really should fix this then

It's as the name suggests. Whenever Gen and Eri sleeps the thief in the bandit ambush encounter. The game basically just perma-softlocks and requires you to alt+f4 and restart the encounter.

It's not that hard to work around, just oneshot the thief before gen and eri can dart them.

Do you know the specific actions that happened RIGHT BEFORE they took their action? Like what actions did the party did before that?

similar problem with gen and eri's sleep bomb; they threw a sleep bomb after the following party interaction (hard mode on)
edit: remembered that it might be important to mention that i have modded bug fables with the asset redirector (dualshock gui) and have the FPS unlocker, rich presence and mod list mods by themooskyfish

turn 1 leif and vi spied the burglar and the wasp scout, then kabbu used heavy strike on the burglar
gen and eri throw poison dart at the burglar
turn 2
1. icefall on thief and wasp scout
2. kabbu's dash through
3. turn relay vi --> kabbu
4. heavy strike on burglar
burglar dies; thief and wasp scout remain (grounded state)
gen and eri throw sleep bomb; game sofltocks with the thief and the scout still in their hurt animation (the scout seems to lack an animation so it's just his hurt sprite) after proccing for sleep (the sound effect played)
addendum: i've seen turn 1 sleep bomb and sleep dart work as intended (sleep bomb only hit the thief and the burglar, not the wasp scout for some reason)
i've also seen turn 3 sleep dart on a thief work, but it didn't sleep them
i do not know if the thief slept on the other times where it worked
(corrected names of enemies)
