Flares thrown from derailed carriage do not scare wolves

[toddajstewart]

I was searching in the derailed carriage and a wolf appeared outside and proceeded to prowl around the carriage.

I threw 2 lit flares at the wolf when I saw it and they landed just outside carriage near the wolf. These thrown flares had no 'scare' effect on the wolf. In the end I had to take damage and fight the wolf off to escape from the carriage.

Flares have a "chance" to hold back or scare off a wolf, unless the wolf is within the Fight or Flight radius, or if they are already in charge/attack mode - in which case flares won't affect them
