I working for friendly ai cog, based on cog downloaded from massassi temple, but those cog have simple bug: Actors with that cog attack other friendly actors... So i wrote something like this:

Code:

symbols

message	startup
message	touched
message	killed
message	pulse

thing		friendly0		mask=0x408
thing		friendly1		mask=0x408
thing		friendly2		mask=0x408
thing		friendly3		mask=0x408
thing		friendly4		mask=0x408
thing		friendly5		mask=0x408
thing		friendly6		mask=0x408
thing		friendly7		mask=0x408
thing		friendly8		mask=0x408
thing		friendly9		mask=0x408
thing		friendly10		mask=0x408
thing		friendly11		mask=0x408

thing		player		local
thing		enemy			local

ai		passive_ai=pednarsh.ai
ai		angry_ai

int            i              local

end

# ========================================================================================

code

startup:
	player = GetLocalPlayerThing();

For(i=0; i<11; i=i+1)
{
	AISetClass(friendly, passive_ai);
}
	return;

touched:
	if(GetSourceRef() != player) return;

	SetPulse(1.0);
	return;

killed:

	SetPulse(0.0);
	return;

pulse:

For(i=0; i<11; i=i+1)
{
	enemy = FirstThingInView(friendly0, 170, 12, 0x4);

	if((enemy == friendly0) || (enemy == friendly1) || (enemy == friendly2) || (enemy == friendly3) ||  (enemy == friendly4) || (enemy == friendly5) || (enemy == friendly6) ||  (enemy == friendly7) || (enemy == friendly8) || (enemy == friendly9) || (enemy == friendly10) || (enemy == friendly11) || (enemy == player) || (!enemy))
	{
		AISetClass(friendly, passive_ai);
		return;
	}

	AISetClass(friendly, angry_ai);		
	AISetFireTarget(friendly, enemy);
	AISetMoveThing(friendly, GetThingPos(enemy));
	AISetLookPos(friendly, GetThingPos(enemy));
	AISetMode(friendly, 0x202);
	AIClearMode(friendly, 0x1000);
}
	return;

end

but its bugged, when level starts game break to windows..

Also i will need battle cog - ie enemies attack friendly actors and vice versa. It will not work on this cog and that downloaded from massassi - enemies dont attack frendly, so this cog is unusefoul.. help need

Your arrays were screwed. Try this one:

Code:

symbols

message startup
message touched
message killed
message pulse

thing friendly0 mask=0x408
thing friendly1 mask=0x408
thing friendly2 mask=0x408
thing friendly3 mask=0x408
thing friendly4 mask=0x408
thing friendly5 mask=0x408
thing friendly6 mask=0x408
thing friendly7 mask=0x408
thing friendly8 mask=0x408
thing friendly9 mask=0x408
thing friendly10 mask=0x408
thing friendly11 mask=0x408

thing player local
thing enemy local

ai passive_ai=pednarsh.ai
ai angry_ai

int i local

end

# ========================================================================================

code

startup:
player = GetLocalPlayerThing();

For(i=0; i<=11; i=i+1) ISetClass(friendly0, passive_ai);

return;

touched:
if(GetSourceRef() != player) return;

SetPulse(1.0);
return;

killed:

SetPulse(0.0);
return;

pulse:

For(i=0; i<=11; i=i+1)
{
enemy = FirstThingInView(friendly0, 170, 12, 0x4);

if((enemy == friendly0) || (enemy == friendly1) || (enemy == friendly2) || (enemy == friendly3) || (enemy == friendly4) || (enemy == friendly5) || (enemy == friendly6) || (enemy == friendly7) || (enemy == friendly8) || (enemy == friendly9) || (enemy == friendly10) || (enemy == friendly11) || (enemy == player) || (!enemy))
{
AISetClass(friendly0, passive_ai);
return;
}

AISetClass(friendly0, angry_ai);
AISetFireTarget(friendly0, enemy);
AISetMoveThing(friendly0, enemy);
AISetLookPos(friendly0, GetThingPos(enemy));
AISetMode(friendly0, 0x202);
AIClearMode(friendly0, 0x1000);
}
return;

end

Okay, my class cogs work just as well, um I mean better.

Code:

# Jedi Knight COG Script
#
# ACTOR_FRIEND2.COG
#
# A cog for a friendly actor.
# Kinda like Max, just better.
# Class Cog - Guard/Stationary version.
#
# [DP]
#

symbols

thing		friend				local
thing		player		nolink	local
thing		target				local
int		count=0				local

message	created
message	killed
message	pulse

end

# ========================================================================================

code

Created:
	player = GetLocalPlayerThing();
	SetThingPulse(GetSenderRef(), 1);
	AIClearMode(GetSenderRef(), 0x1206);
	Return;

# ........................................................................................

Killed:
	If(GetThingClassCog(GetSenderRef()) != GetSelfCog()) Return;
	SetThingPulse(GetSenderRef(), 0);
	AIClearMode(GetSenderRef(), 0x1206);
	AISetMode(GetSenderRef(), 0x1);
	Return;

# ........................................................................................

Pulse:
      count = 0;
	friend = GetSenderRef();
	// Search for baddie to attack us
	target = FirstThingInView(friend, 360, 12, 0x4);
	If((GetThingClassCog(target) == GetSelfCog())||(target == player)) target = -1;
	While(count < GetThingCount())
	{
		If(AIGetMode(target) == 0x202) Return;		// So it keeps on the same target
		If(target != -1)
		{
			CaptureThing(target);
			AISetFireTarget(target, friend);
			AISetMoveThing(target, friend);
			AISetLookPos(target, GetThingPos(friend));
			AISetMode(target, 0x202);
			AIClearMode(target, 0x1000);
		}
		target = NextThingInView();
		count = count + 1;		// Incase there isn't anything in view
	}
	// Search for friendly to attack something
      count = 0;
	If(AIGetMode(friend) == 0x202) Return;		// So it keeps on the same target
	target = FirstThingInView(friend, 170, 12, 0x4);
	If((GetThingClassCog(target) == GetSelfCog())||(target == player)) target = -1;
	While((target == -1)&&(count < GetThingCount()))
	{
		target = NextThingInView();
		If(count == GetThingCount()) target = -1;
		If((GetThingClassCog(target) == GetSelfCog())||(target == player)) target = -1;
		count = count + 1;		// Incase there isn't anything in view
	}
	If(target != -1)		// If there's a target
	{
		CaptureThing(target);
		AISetFireTarget(friend, target);
		AISetMoveThing(friend, target);
		AISetLookPos(friend, GetThingPos(target));
		AISetMode(friend, 0x202);
		AIClearMode(friend, 0x1000);
	}
	Else AIClearMode(friend, 0x1206);
	Return;

end

The baddie attack part is untested, but it should work. Credit me in the readme (when it works if it doesn't right now [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]
