NPC Conditions

[Ainz Ooal Gown]

Ive been messing around with the NPCs Conditions to make a guard based on an alignment system. But for some reason when I set the conditions for "Player Friend/Protector" (even just say its set to player level => 0 to test) and an NPC attacks the player the guard NPC just flashes between "Green" and "Red" title and does not come to the players rescue

 

Aggressive is not ticked.

Tried multiple different conditions with same outcome (flashes between "Green" and "Red" title).

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction, it has to be something stupid I'm missing / doing lol

Try checking the NPC vs NPC enabled box on the grunt.  If that doesn't work try also including the guard on it's list.  I'm sorta guessing right now, I can't recall all of the logic off the top of my head.

In the Npc vs Npc box is the guard allowed to fight whatever is hurting the player?

Ah so I have to put all NPCs that the Guard NPC is allowed to fight back against? I will give that a try now!

 

Knew it would of been something stupid I was doing

 

Thanks for swift reply as per JC

Hmm still dont seem to work for me for some reason.

 

What I have done:

1. NPC Guard created with basic stats
2. Added Condition:
   1. Player Friend/Protector = Player Level => 0
3. Set NPC vs NPC Combat/Hostility:
   1. Added a test bad guy NPC

Still guard NPC flashes and does not attack hostile.

 

Will it make a difference if the NPC was spawned in via an event?

Shoudln't make a difference.

 

Can you post screenshots of the configs of both npcs? I'll see if anything sticks out, or if I need to try to recreate and classify this as a bug.

Thanks Buddy

Here is the Guard (Defender):

Guards Hostility:

Both the Orc Grunts are separate NPCs just named the same, but different sprites. But the Guard doesn't defend against any of the above NPCs

 

 

This is the NPC (Aggressor)

That was it!! Nice one mate! Didn't think about that!

 

Setting NPC vs NPC on the aggressor NPC allowed the Guard to attack it. 

 

Thanks again buddy
