The Pain Elemental has "clean hands?"

[Maes]

Well, I never intended to report bugs myself, only to stimulate the interest of whoever is "in charge" of doing so on a regular basis (and I believe there are DW members that do just that). If none else has, I'll gladly report what I have found so far. What makes it confusing is the divergence between early ZDoom/ZDoomGL and later GZDoom: it's not clear which is supposed the be the buggy and which one the correct behavior, with regards to the PE.

To sum up: older ZDoom/ZDoomGL -> Lost souls from a dying PE don't target the archvile.

Latest ZDoom and GZDoom -> they do.

BTW since we are on the PE subject, have you ever seen one shooting blanks!

In Vanilla Doom, the lost soul limit is 21. If there are more than 21 lost souls in the level, the PE "shoots blanks".

I think this is actually used on purpose in a megawad, can't remember the name of it. grrr
