Lo-Fi Games

Just was thinking it would be cool if the thieves and ninjas used sneak to infiltrate you camp and steal, kidnap, or assassinate characters.
Or if bandits, thieves, ninjas used it on the roads to waylay passers by.

Basically I'm assuming that if they are using sneak and we don't spot them they should not be showing up on the screen.

they do have sneak skills, and in some cases, very high levels
so it could be possible the Dev already has plans for it. since NPC's already have the skills.

Chris talked about giving them that ability in the past. So it was definitely in the plans at one point, no word recently though.

But they did add a "stealth stats" value somewhat recently (3-6 months ago IIRC), which serves pretty much zero purpose without them being able to stealth. So I personally think it's probably still coming, but that's just a guess based on that addition.
