Odd DB behavior

Perhaps I just did not pay attention in the past, so I had a quick question. I've noticed that since the last update, if my bot is in one of the cinematic screens, it is still running around as of it is not. I'm not sure if this is a DB function, or GilesTrinity plugin. I'm just interested as the DB development team said they were monitoring packets going to and from Blizzard when they were testing. Did you notice it reporting differently if it was running during cinematics?

Has anyone else noticed this?
 
Yes it will run even though cinematics are displayed. I'm not sure if this is sent to Blizzard, guess it's only client-side else the DB team would've fixed it already.

Is it Client Side? When I cancel a cinematic, it cancels it for my group too, lol. At some point is has to go server side.
 
Good point. Hope one of the devs see this!

I'm not really being paranoid parrot, I just never noticed it before. I'm sure that they have already looked into it before, but it doesn't hurt to ask :).
 
going from act3 to act4 you can get to the 2nd boss before the cinematic(s) end

Yeah sure I've always thought it was kinda strange to see it being way into the next act even though the cinematics havent even stopped. Thought it was client-side but as you said - it will quit the video for your party-members when you stop it for yourself. So at least when you are in a party it sends information to the server.
 
As someone said in another thread regarding this,

Can't verify if it's true or not right now, but I imagine those options being available.

Yeah, they exit out. That's the plugin I use. I just find it strange that this has never been implemented into the core, considering bots don't really need cinematics anyways lol.
