Monster Features: AI EXTENSION: Features

[Vorspire]

NOTE: Installing this WILL REQUIRE script modifications, including the De/Serialize methods and other methods within the script...

FIRST: BACKUP YOUR CURRENT WORLD-SAVES AND BASECREATURE.CS!

This AI modification will enable you to chose multiple features for any monsters, or mobile based on BaseCreature...

They include fire area attacks, displacing damage on hit, revealing players while talking (2 different versions) making an NPC seem stoned (on weed, Based on the MaryJane system for Players) and much more...

Install this script, at your own risk...

If you DO NOT KNOW how to edit the SERIALIZE and DESERIALIZE methods, then DO NOT install this script by yourself!

OK, here we go...

1> Download and install 'MobileFeatures.cs', found at the bottom of this page.. 'Scripts\Mobiles\' will do...

2> Open your 'BaseCreature.cs' in 'Scripts\Engines\AI\Creature\'...

3> Find the following code in your script:

public bool IsStabled
  {
   get{ return m_IsStabled; }
   set{ m_IsStabled = value; }
  }

4> Just under that code, insert this:

//BEGIN MOBILE FEATURES
 
  private bool e_AntiArchery = false;
  private bool e_AntiEscape = false;
  private bool e_FireAreaAttack = false;
  private bool e_WaterAreaAttack = false;
  private bool e_AirAreaAttack = false;
  private bool e_RobotRevealer = false;
  private bool e_HumanRevealer = false;
  private bool e_Bomber = false;
  private bool e_MassPeace = false;
  private bool e_MassProvoke = false;
  private bool e_DrainStam = false;
  private bool e_DrainMana = false;
  private bool e_DrainHits = false;
  private bool e_TakesDrugs = false;
  private bool e_Displacer = false;
 
  //END MOBILE FEATURES

5> Now to add how the features are called... If you want to mess around with the chances of the feature being activated, go ahead...

6> Hit 'CTRL + F' and search for 'OnGotMeleeAttack'. - This method will be used to call a couple of the features.. remember, you can fiddle with the NUMBERS...

7> Just before the very last '}' insert the following code:

if(MF_AntiArchery)
   {
    if ( 0.5 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
    Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoAntiArchery(this, attacker);
   }
   if (MF_MassProvoke)
   {
    if ( 0.7 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
    Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoMassProvoke(this, attacker);
   }
   if (MF_FireAreaAttack)
   {
    if ( 0.6 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoFireAreaAttack(this, attacker);
   }
   if (MF_WaterAreaAttack)
   {
    if ( 0.6 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoWaterAreaAttack(this, attacker);
   }
   if (MF_AirAreaAttack)
   {
    if ( 0.6 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoAirAreaAttack(this, attacker);
   }
   if (MF_Displacer)
   {
    if ( 0.8 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoDisplace(this, attacker);
   }

8> Now, hit 'CTRL + F' again and search for 'OnGaveMeleeAttack'... before the very last '}' for this method, add this code:

if (MF_MassPeace)
   {
    if ( 0.5 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
    Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoMassPeace(this, defender);
   }
   if (MF_FireAreaAttack)
   {
    if ( 0.5 >= Utility.RandomDouble() )
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoFireAreaAttack(this, defender);
   }

9> We're nearly done..

10> Once again, use 'CTRL + F' and search for 'OnMovement'... Before the very last '}' add this code:

if(MF_RobotRevealer)
    {
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoRobotReveal(this);
    }
    if(MF_HumanRevealer)
    {
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoHumanReveal(this);
    }
    if(MF_DrainHits)
    {
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoHitsDrainAttack(this);
    }
    if(MF_DrainStam)
    {
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoStamDrainAttack(this);
    }
    if(MF_DrainMana)
    {
     Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoManaDrainAttack(this);
    }
    if(MF_TakesDrugs)
    {
     if(0.5 >= Utility.RandomDouble())
      Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.ActStoned(this);
    }

11> Now for the last method edit.. 'CTRL + F' - search for 'OnActionCombat'... then before the last '}' add the following code:

if (MF_Bomber)
   {
    BaseCreature mobile = this;
    Mobile player = this.Combatant;
    Server.Mobiles.MobileFeatures.DoBomber(mobile, player);
   }

12> Now ALL of the method edits are done, and by now you should have followed these instructions perfectly... If you KNOW how to edit the De/Serialize methods, then read step 13... if you DONT KNOW HOW to edit De/Serialize methods, then >>>READ THIS<<< then come back here to complete the steps!!! (I will not support questions about De/Serialization, so if you didn't pay attention.. tough!)

13> Serialization codes:

writer.Write( (bool) e_AntiEscape );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_AirAreaAttack );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_AntiArchery );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_Bomber );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_Displacer );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_DrainHits );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_DrainMana );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_DrainStam );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_FireAreaAttack );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_WaterAreaAttack );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_RobotRevealer );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_HumanRevealer );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_TakesDrugs );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_MassProvoke );
   writer.Write( (bool) e_MassPeace );

14> DeSerialization codes:

e_AntiEscape = reader.ReadBool();
    e_AirAreaAttack = reader.ReadBool();
    e_AntiArchery = reader.ReadBool();
    e_Bomber = reader.ReadBool();
    e_Displacer = reader.ReadBool();
    e_DrainHits = reader.ReadBool();
    e_DrainMana = reader.ReadBool();
    e_DrainStam = reader.ReadBool();
    e_FireAreaAttack = reader.ReadBool();
    e_WaterAreaAttack = reader.ReadBool();
    e_RobotRevealer = reader.ReadBool();
    e_HumanRevealer = reader.ReadBool();
    e_TakesDrugs = reader.ReadBool();
    e_MassProvoke = reader.ReadBool();
    e_MassPeace = reader.ReadBool();

15> Now Save your edits, and restart your server...

Thank you for reading this, and possibly installing my script! Much work and effort was put into this... If you want to add/modify anything in the script, please do so and leave any credit where it is needed..

This script was meant to be an AI Extension System...

Nice one vorspire going to give this a crack later today, certantly gives me some more things to throw at the players *insert evil laugh here*

[ASayre]

Interesting, one suggestion I have is to, instead of a hundred bools, is to use and int & Flags :-)

[Vorspire]

then they wont be settable ingame ? i wrote this a while ago so it could possibly be improved on

[Tobbe371]

i followed all steps, but at the de/serialasation link i stoped, cuz it seems to be broken or something, it just brings me to the main page.

they will need to redo the link cause it prolly linked to somewhere else on the website. Awhile back when they redid the RunUO site, then alot of the links to forum posts don't seem to work properly.
