Operators get me every time. I am trying to grasp them though, have cheat sheets and keep rereading website info. Thank you.
I am gonna call this script solved and it is posted below for the future folks. If anyone does come up with a better solution or wishes to expand this script to new levels PLEASE do so. I love improvements. Thank you Huppy and cConcrete! It is hard to explain how very important this subject is to me. Makes a world of difference when I play.
Code:
#//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
# Created on 25 May 2019
# I will not take credit for this script. I had an idea and did the typing.
# Huppy did most of the structure and graciously provided the @Swimmers data.
# cOncrete and Huppy provided advice and were my instructors. This script
# has solved an issue that has always affected my personal immersion and
# memories of EverQuest.
#

#//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
# All NPCs seem to default to Flymode=3.
# This script when placed in a global_npc.pl will enable the ground NPCs to
# make walking sounds while the swimmers maintain...well...swimming.
#
# If you desire to add or remove NPCs look at the "@Swimmers" and add/delete
# the desired NPC ID. Note you can do a block of IDs "####..####".
#
# Flymode=0 grounded mode
# Flymode=1 flying mode
# Flymode=2 levitating mode
# Flymode=3 in water mode
#
# /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
# global_npc.pl Executes once when the NPC is spawned. Lower CPU usage this way.
