[@killhour]

One thing I've noticed is it seems like you might not understand how to read the minimap. Anyone who is an enforcer (has a white dot over their head) will also show up as a white dot on the minimap, so you don't need to stare at them to see if they will notice you - just check that. Black dots are NPCs who won't care about you (currently - if you take out a weapon or go somewhere restricted, they may turn into a white dot). If there is an NPC but no corresponding dot at all on the minimap, they are a crowd NPC and _have no AI_. You can literally murder someone directly in front of them and they will go into a "cower" animation but will be unable to remember you or alert guards or anything else. For instance, in the crowded bazaar in Marrakesh, if you look at the minimap you will notice that there are actually only a handful of NPCs in any given area. It's completely possible to knock out all the real NPCs and then just stab your target in the face.

Amazing detail if true

[@1_1bman]

@@jetaimemina ehh, the position is a little interesting as long as it's black to play. if it's white to play, you just take the knight and start pushin P to make a queen. if it's black to play, you have to move the knight out of the way, but then white moves the a pawn forwards out of the black king's range. from that point on, it's impossible for black to prevent at least one pawn from safely promoting: moving the knight to threaten either pawn wouldn't work; you just push that pawn. moving the king forward to threaten the a pawn wouldn't work; you just push the a pawn. moving the knight to threaten the space in front of either pawn would stop that pawn, but then you can just push the other pawn. the only potential strategy for black is to move the knight such that it threatens the space in front of the a pawn, then move the black king forward to take it. but once the black king is in range, you would just push the other pawn. if king captures, there's no way for the knight to catch up with the other pawn before it becomes a queen. the best black can do is try to get a knight vs queen endgame, which is always a win for the guy with the queen.
