Hello,

There are 5 basic types of AI's that I'd like for my attackable NPCs:

1. Mobile & aggressive (currently exists; case 3)
2. Mobile & non-aggressive (walks around, but doesn't attack until attacked)
3. Immobile & aggressive (doesn't walk around, but attacks if you get close enough)
4. Immobile & non-aggressive (doesn't walk around, and doesn't attack until attacked)
5. Coward (doesn't attack and runs away unless it's fighting. this could be case 4 if I removed the "attack" code, right?)

Can anyone tell me where there is a tutorial for editing or making your own NPC AIs?

If not, I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me how here.

Thanks in advance,

Joe

Yes, thank you. I've been reading that, trying to understand it all.

Ok, I can see that if I set "Hostile" to 0 and the AI to 2, the NPCs walk around and don't attack me.

However, when I attack them they don't do anything. They just sit there and let me hit them. What would I add to case 2 to make them fight back after being attacked?

Is there a general command that I can put in there so that all AIs will fight back upon being attacked?

I'm guessing it would look similar to this line:



but I'm not sure yet how to detect an attack on the player's part?
