Monster attacking entity !? - stonecutter - 03-26-2012

Is where a way that a monster can be told to attack an entity ? I just mean that the monster runs towards the entity ( therefore i can use the pathnotes ) and the attack animation starts ? Is where a script command for starting an animation ? found nothing in the wiki !

THX Smile


Ah can someone move the topic ? posted it in the wrong subforum ! SRY

when you script a pathnode for a monster, you can choose to play an animation for that enemy at that pathnode. Let him play the attack animation and script damage to whatever entity it is.

If an object is breakable and its in the way of the monster with no way around it, the monster may start attacking it.

Yeah i know that ... but i want the penumbra dog to attack a "dead corpse" entity that is lying on the ground.
So i will try this with the pathnotes and animation at a pathnote.
