Oh wow, AI NPCs

Post by Fifty » Mon Oct 10, 2005 1:10 pm

Okay, obviously it is not true AI, but this bit sounds amazing...

Code: Select all

Some of them are more complex than others. For example: it was not hard to make the drunk mumble things at you and it is not highly detailed. The Noble on the other hand is actually three personalities in one. The noble will examine the VALUE of the clothing you are wearing and will treat you as a peasant, middle class, or upper class person when speaking to you. Remember, these “intelligences” are simply to add a more life like flavor to the NPCs. The keywords you give them will override these intelligences. The intelligence is there to fill the holes left in whatever keywords you use.

I thought it said Al NPCs, and wondered why Avlis needed more than one Al :D

Pretty cool. There are a few similar things scattered about Avlis, if you know where to look, and what to say :wink:
