This isn't a bug, if Noober is taken into combat, he will sometimes not side with a PC due to alignment differences.

I figured that was the case code-wise, but it seems counter intuitive to his "Noober and <PC> are best friends!" being shouted to the heavens. Perhaps he should a non-combatant party instead?

We can refer it to the builder for his review, but if Noober is simpleton enough to befriend one on the basis of listening to him for a few minutes then it stands to reason that he might not be the most loyal friend...
