Ambush NPCs... don't make my mistake!

Hi.

 

I posted a while back about the player not being able to loot dead 'Ambush' NPCs.

 

I found the issue. It was simply an error on my part where I'd tried all sorts to get around another (totally unrelated) problem.

 

The ambush actors involved were all those linked to a trigger box, as their 'Activate Parent'. To try to get around the other problem, I experimented with setting each placed NPC to be 'Parent activate only'. I then forgot to undo this change after I corrected my first problem by other (much more satisfactory) means.

 

Doing this means that they can't be looted when dead, because that is 'activating' them and the player is not the parent.

 

Just thought I'd post this for reference... it gave me many hours of heartache and I don't want anyone else to suffer the same fate!
