wolverinetree Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I keep placing an NPC on a high platform in the GECK, and when I go in game, he's in the same spot on the floor. I even navmeshed the area where he's supposed to stand. He doesn't move. I also gave him the "default" AI package. How do I get him to stay there?

pkleiss Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 What default AI package did you use, there are many? The reason I ask is that your NPC may be moving about on his perch and falling to the main floor below. You can test this by going in game and using tcl to move the player to the perch (or otherwise getting to that spot) and then using the refID.movrto player console command to move your NPC to his perch then tcl your way back to the ground and watch what your NPC does. Take a look at Stockholm, who is perched atop megaton. he does not use any default AI packages. He uses custom ones that force him to stay put on his perch. Pay close attention to the package flags, setting some of them may result in actions that you don't want, like those listed under Enable Fallout Behavior. Aside from that, you may need to place some actual barriers around his perch (fencing, walls, stc...), if there aren't any, whose geometry prevents him from actually slipping over the edge and onto the floor below. You could also try placing a collision plane horizontally under his perch. Lastly, the perch navmesh needs to be separate from the floor navmesh. And still, I have noticed issues with my own navmeshing when placing one unconnected navmesh overtop of another. Sometimes, the game just goes bonkers with that kind of thing. In that case, if you can, try setting up his perch such that there is no other navmesh directly below his position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted1685555User Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 hm, I'm having a similar issue with an npc...I'm placing him, giving him the sitting behavior but instead of sitting, he's either missing completely, or stands there :dry:also, I change the location of the npc placement marker, but the npc keeps appearing in the same location regardless! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
