Seems like bouncers attack whenever melee damage is dealt, and not just when a fight starts as they used to... bug?

...how much coding has been does to fix those ef'n bouncers over the years.

I wrapped the entire bouncer thing into a single function a loooong time ago, and now it's a simple matter of adding that function wherever strange things happen.

n/t

And I think I reported it, but can't remember...

As Nererial, I got attacked by whoever the fort captain was. Ilvakihj, I think.

Anyway, bouncers attacked him, as you'd expect. However, every commune I did on him whilst the fight continued caused them to yell at me, and, I think, counted as a fresh attack. I think this one fight got me banned from the inn, and I didn't even start it.

To top it off, he drove me north, and the bouncers there all attacked me, because my round of strikes were the next to go through.
