time does change but it has no effect my guess its that the distance overtime can sometimes flow into the negatives causing the game to bug out and the boss to flee

pretty sure it does still have the time effects, blood moons and solar eclipses still happen

This was not the result of a time change or anything that simple, yeah. I think we deduced it was due to the game like dividing by zero when the distance between you and the boss is zero, happens with prime too. Thanks for submitting the report.

Just happened with me lol, makes it tough for facetanking testing

This is probably the bug present in many AIs in the game where enemies divide by zero when their center is on top of the player's, which is very rare but does happen. This also has been reported like 2 years ago and not been fixed.
