Title: Some monster special abilities...
Post by: Dark_Ansem on May 23, 2012, 06:32:53 AM

is there any way to use the prc to make those creature abilities:

Dragon Breath
Beholder Rays
Illithid mind blasts

more similar to their PnP counterparts?

Pretty sure there are scripts on the NWVault for this.

but they would be incompatible with the PrC. I'd like instead those to be merged in the main file, in order to keep "mod count" to a minimum and therefore avoid incompatibilities,

That is absolutely not true.  The PRC has very little to do with AI as of right now.  I use Mindflayer & Beholder scripts for the Astral / Gray areas in Athas Reborn.

can you post links of said modified monster scripts on the vault?

besides, being those abilities more similar to the PnP counterparts, could not they be merged?

Beholder AI & Rays (http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Scripts.Detail&id=3417)

I was wrong about the illithids, I'm actually using the special BioWare AI for Mind Flayers that comes with HotU.

thank you. I still think they should be merged, since they are a PnP addition.

I wonder if there's something similar for Dragon Breaths?
