I put a skeever pen in my dungeon as I have see in others and I open the gate but the one I have listed to attack will only attack once or twice and then just stand there and look at me. The Orc Bandit Boss does the same thing. Anybody have an idea why?

What did you put in their factions tab?

The Skeever is in 3 (Creature, Prey, Skeever), the Bandit is in 1 (bandit).
After testing the area 30 times, I found that the bandit will continue to attack when the sword I gave him loads correctly and I stand there doing nothing, if I move away or after I attack a couple times he stands there again, and after 3 attacks my arrows pass right through him doing no damage.
However when I stand there and let him kill me and it reloads his sword doesn't flame and his attacks do no damage to me, my arrows also pass through him as if he weren't there. . I used the encBanditOrcboss because I could augment his stats and items.
The only things I changed was his default size, armor, inventory, made him angry, and some of his stats.

I think this may help:
