Hi!

I want to use some zombies in my map. I saw that they are static until you are close to them.

How can I extend their activation area? I would want to active them far than now.

easiest and first is to rightclick and set always active.

if it doesnt change, you have to open the main-fpi they use and edit anything where "plrdistwithin=X" is used. make a copy before changing things so you save the original. one fpsc-square is 100 distance. use manual and users guide in the docs-folder to understand what you read in the fpi-script.

If you want to get really technical you could use Dark AI, and they'll seek your player out from ANYWHERE



Although, don't go in over your head. Dark AI is advanced stuff.

The zombies become static?

Hi!

Thanks, modify file fpi worked more or less. I read about waypoints. I think this is a good idea to make zombies walk around the city.

Thanks all!

I can't see my post until someone check it, so I can't modify it.

How can I do that a zombie don't follow thw waypoints and other do it? I want to put some zombies stopped but all of them follow the waypoints

simply use another mainscript without waypoint commands. THAT is the mainthing in doing games. not the same behavior for every person ingame everytime
the more you mix up, the more fun the player has. learn scripting-language to understand what the different scripts are written for.

If you want your zombies not to follow waypoints, make two copies of the MAIN zombie script. Take out the waypoint commands out of the first one, and save it. Then For zombie 1: Put the modified script so he doesn't follow the waypoint and for zombie 2: Assign the regular script and make him follow a waypoint.

A note about "plrdistwithin=300".

300= 3 segments
so 1500 would be 15 segments
