Do you mean absolutely stay put? To glue him or her to a spot, set memory cell 0 to either 2 (never move ever) or 1 (move if a target appears) [page 39 of Editor manual].

There's also the nullmonst script in the VoDT folder. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

First, check the description at the top of the script. Frequently, there is a value you can give to a memory cell to make the monster immobile. For example, in the guard.txt script, setting memory cell 0 to 1 or 2 gives various flavors of immobility. Second, the set_mobility call can stop any monster in its tracks permanently. Third, you can make any monster never move by never giving it any calls that might make it move. This includes do_attack, by the way. If you want the monster to use regular attacks, you'll need to use set_mobility. -------------------- Official Board Admin spidweb@spiderwebsoftware.com Posts: 960 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |
