Actor Won't Attack Player

Post » Sun Nov 18, 2012 7:57 pm

Been having some issues recently where the actors that I create will not attack the player.

Quick facts here:
  • The actors are in a faction that is set to an enemy of the player.
  • The actors are spawned via the PlaceActorAtMe (also tried just PlaceAtMe)
  • The actors use a leveled character list as a base.
  • The actors will attack the player with ranged weapons and magic, but never melee weapons.
  • The actors engage the player and circle around him/her, but never swings their weapon.
  • StartCombat didn't force the actor to hit the player.
Any ideas?

I fixed the issue I was having. It seems that, when using a leveled actor list as the actor base, the actors don't quite get their AI Data set up properly, but by making an actor dummy in between the level list and the real actor, it worked.

Glad you got it sorted :)
