    1. Title: POT Banker moves around and bankbox doesn't open
    2. Reproduction Rate: 100% depending on where he's standing
    3. Blocker? No
    4. Details: Depending on where the banker is standing when I enter the POT bank, when I double-click him, he walks around behind the banker cage and the bankbox doesn't open.
    5. Steps to Reproduce: Enter POT bank. If banker is on the left side of the banker cage and I'm on the right side, if I double click him, he will walk around behind the cage. The dialog box comes up. When I click "bank", he continues walking around and the bankbox does not open.
    6. User Specs: PC Windows 7 Pro 64 bit AMD Radeon R9 200 w/4gb

    This is somewhat expected behavior for how our POT NPC behaviors work, as compared to the static NPCs that we set up to be leashed to their spot in front of the bank window in NPC scenes. We may revisit this in the future to make this operate better.

    Then perhaps the rude NPC should tell me why he's ignoring my request to open my bankbox. :p

    They are stuck trying to path to you, which blocks their ability to open the window. The bug submitted should address these concerns. Or else half our NPCs will start messaging "Hold on a sec, let me get about a foot away from you before I'm useful." ;)

    I figured since it's a POT, our citizens are paying their salaries and therefore, they should do what we want them to do!

    Regardless, thanks for quickly addressing this issue, which is my FIRST EVER bug report on the Q&A server!
