Hello there! This is a start of a series of Fallout 1 ANTICS ; D (movie starts at 0:30)
Many of these have been created while routing the speedruns, so they mostly happen in the starting cave, Mariposa military base and the Cathedral.
This here is an example on how to trick the game into actually staying in the combat mode, even if there's no real combat going on : ) The culprit here is the attack system, which gets stuck because of a 'failed' attack on the first rat. The rat itself dodges the shot, but doesn't detect our presence nearby, and so is not attacking us. We can go along with this and pass all the other rats on the way out, too, if we don't stand too close in front of them at the beginning of the combat round. Being behind them is mostly safe tho.
