D2: If it's a bug - it's a cool bug. I'd like to see it as a feature.

I was busy laying low; waiting to waste the Theif Bot on level 2 when
it appeared.

I shot a bunch of homing missiles and sprayed some Vulcan fire at it -
and was puzzled when all I heard was the breaking glass of shot-up
lights. It was still there. Not a scratch.

I emptied my bullets and nothing happened again. It just sat there.

I cautiously went up to it - blasting away - to see if mebbe it was
just a wall pattern. It wasn't.

Then it disappeared.

The theif bot came then around the corner right then - rushing me.

I promptly backed up and pumped some concussion missiles in the
general direction. I heard the death groan as it blew up.


I realized that it was a bug - but WOW - It would be challenging to
try to fight a bot that could throw "ghost" images at you while it
came in a different direction.

(Parallax: If it's an actual feature......... cool!  If it's just a
bug..... it would make a hell of a feature...... )
