Hey Ilya, we can still customise your NPC zombies, right?

I still want scriptable ones. They are way more fun.

Why would you want scripted NPC's. The vanilla bot AI is good enough, right..

@ Alistaire: It's terrible, you can't even adjust the speed of them.

hmm. sounds interesting.

So? You want glitchy-ass tibia npc's?

engineer can probably create better npc than the tibia ones.

The problem is, scripted npc's lag a lot more.

then it's your choice, scripted npc = lag or normal npc = limited functions.

Might I ask what's limited. I mean, the only limit is that you can't change their behaviour a lot. You /can/ 'speed them up'. This is because you can freeimage them, and spawn a new NPC some further, while just using a tween to simulate them walking from one place to another. You can hit them as a player, by adding a hitbox to the image.

You can also change their damage in some way, their health values etc.

what your speaking of right now is scripted npc.

No, it's the normal NPC, but a bit edited. He obviously tought that you were talking about making a totaly new NPC script.

I think that the NPC Scripted will be sucks like Tibia Mod's NPC.

Why? If it's scripted with the proper zombie behaviour, it's good.

@ Gajos: No. Well done NPCs are good and won't lag so much. Tibia doesn't lag so much. Scripted NPCs can be even done easier since hitzones for images hvae been added.

Agreed, you can really create non-laggy npc script easily. The only minus is that they won't be smooth for laggers.

Yes. Customizable is much better than keeping the cs2d npc's. Also I just want to see some customizable npc's just like everyone else.

Hey guys,

So I listened to your opinion and made scripted zombies. I'll make a setting that will return CS2D zombies and monsters, but scripted will be the default.

Zombies can attack, flee, roam, or a combination of those. I am also working on patrol. All properties of those behaviours are customisable - duration, damage, delays etc. They will be like CS2D NPCs in other mod regards, in that they will drop items and give you zombie kills so you could advance in rank.

I also made an epic cool video to show you how it works!

Fuck memory and lags, scripted NPCs are better.

Your NPCs looks REALLY realistic. I liked way they attack (rotating of their images I mean).

@ EngiN33R: Looks really amazing!

Hope I get to edit it to my liking soon, I am booming with ideas now.

epic is a too short word.
