Title : Ooze Phagocytosis - Detach
----------------------------------------
Boogers of Tsunami,

tl;dr - Oozes can now detach themselves from Phagocytosis
targets by simply moving out of the room.

Phagocytosis has been updated to use a more modern approach
to implementing the code that allows the Ooze to "follow" its
target when the target moves. Part of the old implementation
involved magically teleporting the Ooze back into the target's
room if they somehow became separated (at least in most
circumstances). So if the Ooze moved, say, out of the room on
its own, the next round it would b transported back to the
target's room, which just doesn't make any sense.

Now if the Ooze moves itself while using Phagocytosis, it will
detach from the target. Previously there was essentially no
way to detach from a target other than the skill naturally
running out of duration, the target using some sort of escape
skill/item, or if either the Ooze of the target died. For
example, even if the Ooze had used a recall scroll to escape,
the skill would not end and the Ooze would be teleported back
to the target's room. Just odd behavior.

Cheers,
Marisil
