0000304: Inproper obituary when owned monster kills player
This is mostly for DM games.
When you have sentry or owned monster, the kills from them
account to the master. This is correct. The problem is with obituares.
Obitary show is taken from master, so if I have SSG holding and
my monster kills someone, SSG obituary is displayed.
Start a bot game w/ pclasses for example.
Join as Archvile, spawn few monsters.
You will see how they will kill bots but obitares will be incorrect.
Newest pclasses:
'ftp://node.ovh.uu3.net/home/borg/wads/pclasses-r1.wad [^]'
'ftp://node.ovh.uu3.net/home/borg/wads/pclasses-v0.35.wad [^]'
No tags attached.

Yeah.. and should be freakly easy to fix.

I just read ClientObituary() in p_interaction.cpp in ZDOOM.
easy function.

messages are taken from this:
message = attacker->GetClass()->Meta.GetMetaString (AMETA_Obituary);

So I suspect attacker=attacker->master somewhere in code..
