hah, whoops. Good catch.

I'm writing my own AI script now anyway, so it doesn't even matter anymore. Since I'm rewriting all my Mobs 1 by 1 as I add them to the world, I'm also giving them all special events and what not for AI flags.

So now;

Code:

[EVENTS e_AI_Guard]

ON=@NPCLookAtChar

    IF (<SRC.TEVENTS> == e_AI_Hostile)

ATTACK 

ENDIF

But, now all my mobs in the entire game will have event flags setup for the AI, allowing certain types to fight each other. For example, e_AI_Carnivore will attack e_AI_Small_Animals, and e_AI_Hostile will always attack any e_AI_Friendly, etc.

It's also setup so each base event can have abilities.. so it'll be a very simple and easy to expand AI system, pretty much based on Anarch's ideas it's just my spin on it. I'm just not using any tags at all. I just have NPCs/Mobs attack/defend/react to each other based on what events they have. Any advanced AI can be written into the event itself for each event type.

Basic idea os what I have now (Hardly done at all, I'm just setting up)

Code:

[EVENTS e_AI_Guard]

ON=@NPCLookAtChar

    IF (<SRC.TEVENTS> == e_AI_Hostile)

ATTACK 

ENDIF

[EVENTS e_AI_Vendor]

[EVENTS e_AI_Undead] //Incomplete

ON=@Hit

   IF (<SRC.ACT.RESTEST i_mem_undead_acid>)

      SRC.ACT.CONSUME 100 i_mem_undead_acid

   ENDIF

   IF (<SRC.ACT.RESTEST i_mem_undead_acid_2>)

      SRC.ACT.CONSUME 100 i_mem_undead_acid_2

   ENDIF

   LINK.CONSUME 100 i_mem_undead_acid

   LINK.UPDATE

   REMOVE

   RETURN 1

[EVENTS e_AI_Friendly] //Friendly NPCs

[EVENTS e_AI_Neutral] //Animals
