Help, My NPC isn't Eating!

Post » Thu Jun 21, 2012 4:36 am

I have created an 'Eat' package at the top of my NPC's package stack. When it runs (on schedule) the NPC moves to the nearest piece of furniture and uses it for an hour. Sounds good, right? Unfortunately, the closest furniture is not always a place to sit! So instead of munching on some bread, she (for example) picks up and drops wood at a woodpile for an hour straight. :confused:

How do I make sure she only goes to chairs/tables/benches to eat?

Sorry to bump... I was really hoping for a solution tonight :confused:

Do those settings look right? Are my expectations about AI behavior wrong?

NPCs can eat standing up, so the problem isn't the EAT command, but the Eat-Location.

Unless you are 100% certain that your packages will be run in a location that includes furniture to sit on, then you would need to just use EAT (and they will eat a breadroll, standing up).

(always beats me why Beth didn't make a fortune more, flogging in-game ad-space to subway? ;))
