So, I have an NPC ive made and it has a trigger under it's chardef that is supposed to make it decide what item to equip during what circumstance
Here's the chunk of code that makes it decide what to do

Code:

on=@NPCActFight

if <argn1> <=2

  findid.i_axe.equip

  elseif <argn1> > 2 

  findid.i_pumpkin_launcher.equip

endif

so what happens is that it actually equips the item on the player he is attacking. first it equips the bow on the player because he's typically more then 2 tiles away, then since he doesnt have anything in his hands he charges at the player, then when he's within 2 tiles it equips the axe onto the player.

am i using findid wrong? have I been away too long and lost my goddamn mind?

here's the whole thing chardef included

Code:

You have to do:

Code:

on=@NPCActFight

if <argn1> <=2

  equip <findid.i_axe>

elseif <argn1> > 2

  equip <findid.i_pumpkin_launcher>

endif

Using findid.i_axe.equip will cause the SRC to try to equip the weapon, and in @NpcActfight SRC is the player being attacked.
