RE: Make Suitor Run

Should work perfectly. Unless I am wrong.

RE: Make Suitor Run

Ok. One more thing.
Now I'm in the editor. Which variables should i turn up if i want the suitor not the despawn no matter what, except when i tell it to?

RE: Make Suitor Run

That's intentional, AFAIK. Game design.

Though I could be wrong, though. I read in a post like that somewhere.

RE: Make Suitor Run

This was not quite what i meant.
What i mean is that i want the suitor to stand there behind the metal-door (Which you can see through), and don't disappear no matter how much distance there is between me and it, and either if i'm looking at it or not... There must be a variable for the distance-thingy

RE: Make Suitor Run

I saw a variable for the Activation Distance, but not for anything else.

Maybe look at those variables again? Maybe it's there, I dunno.

The Activation Distance works like this.

Let's say that you have a monster that is about 50 meters away from you (set to active in the Editor). The monster won't spawn until you get within range (40 meters if variable is 40). If we try the same with 100, the monster would already spawn (since act. distance is 100 meters from the player, while it's 50 meters from the player).

This is what I think that variable's for. Despawning is (I think) a game mechanic.
