Results of trial run: Battle state bug.
Details: Young Rydia saw that Gilbert was very, very low on HP during our Damycam level grind, but he managed to go into hiding before she got her command off. The borg had been sitting there furiously trying to move the cursor to Gilbert's position for a few hundred thousand frames when I came to check on it.
It surprised me that this bug hadn't come up before for Gilbert; his cowardice is almost as legendary as his impotence as a fighter. I certainly had run into a similar problem with Kain a while ago and adjusted targeting to compensate. However, after some thought I decided this really would be a rare occurrence with our current game strategy; Gilbert has a low chance of being in critical condition during the level grind, he just defends during the Antlion fight, and I think after his fateful solo fight in Kaipo he doesn't automatically hide anymore.
Solution: I already had taught the borg that anyone with the Jump flag isn't targetable (just Kain in this game). Adding Hide to that logic was pretty trivial.
