Wizard NPC - Caster Only? - Chukwuemeka - 05-19-2017 03:58 AM
Hi!
I'm trying to create a wizard NPC that will attack only with spells.
Obvious problem is the usual behavior for him is punch everyone with the spellbook.
I tried looking around here for NPC AI scripts and tried canceling his <ACTION> but no luck so far.
Is there a simple way I can avoid all that punching that and make him only a caster?
Thanks once again.

Hmm that's weird, actually NPCs spams a lot of spell, does the wizard's spellbook contain any spell?

He cast spells, that is not a problem, but also I would like to avoid him running towards players trying to punch them.
Is there a way to make him NOT use wrestling at all?

Had no luck with this yet. Any tips?

try with the @npcactfight trigger
see:
Code:
17-05-2015, XuN
Updated @NPCActFight:
Added - local.skill // Setting this to any skill will make the NPC begin this skill
Added - local.spell // For magic skills this will be the casted spell
Added - ACT // This will refer to the target, must be set since the trigger is using SRC for the first enemy
Added - return 2 // The code above will only work when return = 2
Removed NPC_AI_STRICTCAST and all the invented casts from npcs.This can be reverted applying a trigger for npcs like this:
ON=@NPCActFight
if (<magery> > 0)
local.spell=<r1,64>
while (<local.spell> < 64)
if (<CanCast <local.spell>>)
local.skill=magery
return 2
else
local.spell ++
endif
endwhile
endif //same for the other magic skills.https://wiki.spherecommunity.net/index.php?title=@NPCActFight
