AIsetfiretarget(thing, enemy)...

...doesn't work. Any ideas?
(all the enemies work as normal)

Hmmmmm.....could be that:

Your hypodermical spherical neminestimeral obitular reman-a-tron has quadraplated its munomulator to the power of 78^3 while in doing so manipulating the feedback from the quasmi-nomical biodualtor in the reverse cycloptic motion in which the cereb-o-matic fuses its cy-chim-a-trons to the fourth, second and third mes-ma-matic with the completion of seperating Volume III quasmatic fluid with the over-reactive radiation produced from the bowels of the shielded sysmatic biogenetically reproduced wamatriculator fonton-ma-tron.

thanx Aglar. Xizor was so nasty *sniff* I just can't take it anymore!
Anyhoo, heres the code:


#friendly.cog
#By the Chimera
Symbols
message startup
thing friendly
thing enemy
end
#------------------------------------
startup:
AISetFireTarget(friendly, enemy);
end

[Rogue15]

that cog didn't work 4 me either. the aisettarget thing that you're supossed to place in the .ai file.

[Aglar]

..no
AISetFireTarget is a cog verb, it belongs no where near an ai file..
Do you have the cog properly inserted?

definitely

AISetFireTarget() doesn't work on it's own, for some reason. You need a few other functions.

AIClearMode(attacker, 0x3844);
AISetMode(attacker, 0x63B);
AISetInterest(attacker, target); // optional; only in MotS, I believe
AISetFireTarget(attacker, target);
AISetLookPos(attacker, GetThingPos(target)); // optional as well, but I'm not sure

Just play around with adding and removing some of these lines till it works.

[Fardreamer]

Oh, and you forgot a "Return;" at the end of the startup message right before the "END" command. http://216.105.160.32/html/wink.gif That's the main reason it doesn't work.

[Jipe]

And you forgot the code line after the end of the symbols http://216.105.160.32/html/smile.gif
