Can I assign logics to custom, unique NPCs which I spawned via .script without touching the all.spawn? And if so, how?

Thanks for reading.
---END QUOTATION---

Yes, i assume you have a spawn section... right?

---QUOTATION---

[npc_section_whatever]:stalker
$spawn = "respawn\npc_section_whatever"
character_profile = npc_section_whatever_profile_name
spec_rank = veteran
community = stalker
custom_data = scripts\mod\npc_section_whatever_logic.ltx

---END QUOTATION---

So... assuming you have a spawn section... you just need:

1 - Change the sections to be used with correct names

2 - Create in 'config\scripts\mod\' a file with the 'custom data' line reference... in this case 'npc_section_whatever_logic.ltx'

And this 'npc_section_whatever_logic.ltx' is where you put the logic for the npc.

Have fun.

Hello, thanks for explaining how to do this

I'm gonna have so much fun messing around with the logics of the ai.

I edited my spawn_sections.ltx so the custom data reference is:
config/scripts/mod/esc_army_trader_rookie.ltx

In the esc_army_trader_rookie.ltx, I have this:

---QUOTATION---
[logic]
active = walker
on_hit = hit
on_death = death

[walker]

path_walk = esc_wounded_fox_walk
path_look = esc_wounded_fox_look
---END QUOTATION---

This should make my NPC walk to where fox should be.. However, my character wandered around one of the houses in the rookie village and then he started making his way to the military outpost base in cordon...

Also, my character sometimes doesn't spawn. I have the spawn.script in my script folder and it works but I must start a new game and quit the current game once or twice in order for him to spawn. Any idea why?

Cheers

Where did you spawn him ? It's imporant because if he is too far the engine takes care of the npc until it reaches his waypoint and he can detour a lot.
Also did you add the

 
[smart_terrains]
none = true

section ? If not he could be captured by a gulag.

Also that logic you've posted misses the hit and death sections.

Most likely you need the add a danger_condition section so the npc ignores the mutants that are close.

Lijenstina, everything you said is correct... But the 'smart_terrains = true' is not always effective... in special if created by script. I recall several examples of sections created by me to be used in agroprom (killers) and Darkvalley (bandits) and it was bad... it was like for each 10 npcs... 70% left the logic and were assumed by a smart terrain in the momment they spawned. I tested the killer's example a lot... and the 'smart terrains/none = true' was there. Now imagine the same scenario in pripyat with monolith stalkers... aha... good luck with that. I mean, you are spawning him by script and zap... and the guy is already flying... his objective? Well see that rooftop 'right there'? That's his objective. And you are like... 'What the hell is that? Superman?'. And Mister GSC says 'NO, it's the pri_monolith smartie'. Aha.

Btw, in my 'Global Action Mod' (not released yet)... the 'pri_monolith' smart is present ONLY if Charon is NOT DEAD. You kill the bastard, and the smart is gone.

I just put in the smart terrains part... I remember once I traveled for a bit because he didn't spawn outside sid's bunker and I found him as a corpse next to that tunnel with the 19xmm ammo box and the energy drink and campfire

Tested it with smart terrains and he is a part of the rookie village

I think the rookie village is esc_lager?

Here is my logic .ltx:

http://pastebin.com/86L5izY3

It has the no smart terrains and the hit n death parts... I am trying to make him walk where Fox walks (guy you save from the mutant dogs "phew.. we're done with these mutants..."

Thanks a lot for taking time to write this and explaining everything very well

I lolled at the wpn_vintorez;LOL.. I can just imagine "Yuri The Drunk Russian" assaulting the Freedom base by himself lol.

I have made the appropriate modifications to the logic. However, When I start a game, I got some kind of crash. The error log was something along the lines off.... "Failed to callback game engine" or something... It was fixed as soon as I un-commented line 20 in _g.script

Needles to say, the logic did not work.. Probably because I need to comment line 20. Are you sure its line 20?

Here's the new logic: http://pastebin.com/55D2QAvG
I kept the comments and the names in case I forget how to do something, all I gotta do is look at this tutorial

Here is the new logic:

You have errors in the sections names
The logic fails and the engine picks up the NPC in the gulag.
