"So why do my NPC's stand still when in game, I have Navmeshed the area and also have added AI packages but they wont interact with any of the furniture, im sure its to do with the packages but I not what.. " Have you given them a Sandbox package? Like: DefaultSandboxEditorLocation512 Sandbox packages allow NPC's to wander around freely & use chairs & idle markers. Hope this helps!

chazzee23 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Share Posted June 25, 2012 (edited) Hey Prensa, Thanks once again for ur help that seemed to work, its funny though I had made me own Sandbox package with pretty much all the same options but it never worked.Now I was wondering if u might know why my custom bartender will not use the idle bar markers, I have him linked to an xmarker heading with a sandbox package but all he does is move from one to the next marker and stand there.One more thing I have set the markers to ignored by sandbox because I would have random NPCs using them but the bartender is linked so should this affect if he uses them or not.

"Now I was wondering if u might know why my custom bartender will not use the idle bar markers, I have him linked to an xmarker heading with a sandbox package but all he does is move from one to the next marker and stand there." If you are going to link your Bartender NPC to the idles, I think you need to use a "Patrol Package" & not a Sandbox. Also, make sure the xmarkers or idles you have the NPC linked to don't have their "Patrol Data" - "Idle Time" set to 0 as this means they will not pause at the marker or peform any idles. They would just move on straight away to the next idle/Xmarker. "Patrol Data" can be accessed by double clicking on the idle/Xmarker & selecting it's tab (in the same area as the 3D data tab etc.), you'll see Idle Time in there. The GECK wiki has a good page on this: http://geck.bethsoft.com/index.php/Patrol_Package Also check out Gob at Moriarty's Saloon in GECK for another way to set up a bartender, he's set up to tend bar with idle markers. Looks like they don't link him to the idles there, he's got a special package that's triggered when he's in the bar area. "One more thing I have set the markers to ignored by sandbox because I would have random NPCs using them but the bartender is linked so should this affect if he uses them or not. " As far as I understand it "ignored by sandbox" should prevent NPC's on normal Sandbox packages from using the idle marker. NPC's directly linked should use the idle marker still. Though I've not used that setting myself. Hope this helps! Prensa Edited June 25, 2012 by prensa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
