[LE] Actor Won't Attack Player

[Aykani]

Been having some issues recently where the actors that I create will not attack the player.

 

Quick facts here:

• The actors are in a faction that is set to an enemy of the player.
  
• The actors are spawned via the PlaceActorAtMe (also tried just PlaceAtMe)
  
• The actors use a leveled character list as a base.
  
• The actors will attack the player with ranged weapons and magic, but never melee weapons.
  
• The actors engage the player and circle around him/her, but never swings their weapon.
  
• StartCombat didn't force the actor to hit the player.
  

 

Any ideas?

Hmmm did you set him to be agressive or very agresive? Frenzy would make him atack anyone even allies

 

Also wouldnt hurt setting his relationship for player to be enemy

 

Im not sure did you had this problem but sometimes also Skyrim wont add player to player faction. I have this prolem with newest version so try this

 

press ` and select player and then type this

I set it to very aggressive, but I will double check to verify if the player made it into the player faction. I'll also try the relationship update as well

 

-EDIT-

 

Doesn't seem to be a faction issue. They want to attack me because they circle around me with their weapons drawn as if they are going to swing, but they never do. They even taunt me so they are definitely marked as enemy. They seem to attack other NPCs within my faction, just not the player in particular.

I fixed the issue I was having. It seems that, when using a leveled actor list as the actor base, the actors don't quite get their AI Data set up properly, but by making an actor dummy in between the level list and the real actor, it worked.

I am having the same issue! navmesh complete and all! i dont understand what you mean by "making an actor dummy in between the level list and the real actor." Can someone please explain!?

 

 

*edit,

 

I placed them thru the creation kit using the LVLBANDITMELEE1H, I would like to use this to spawn in leveled creatures and bandits and such given the proper item.
