Making guards attack.. ideas please, please..

[RangerDown]

First, you need to change the npc_faction_entries record that has npc_faction=7 and faction_id=7. The npc_value needs to be 1, not negative 1. You want the guards assisting each other, not fighting among themselves.

You need to make the guards responsible for doing their duty and watching for animals to kill, instead of waiting for an animal to run up and bite them before they spring into action. The npc_faction_id field in npc_faction_entries refers to the mob that will be evaluating a faction. The faction_id is the target faction the mob will evaluate. Change the npc_value fields appropriately on the record that has npc_faction_id=7/faction_id=2.

Terrific!

Remember, the qeynos guards have their duty so ingrained into them that I bet 500 years from now they'll be walking around Qeynos saying "Duty above all else citizen, except honor" to random passers by.

You think so? :P

In around 500 years, MY guards are going to be walking around saying.."Hey Dad, have we ever attacked a Gnoll?"..
"Nah, Son.. nice, friendly, furry things Gnolls.. we just let Ole' Fippy run in when he wants".

My hopes of the guards attacking are dashed, and I'm going to sit here quietly and watch Fippy murder all the good citizens in Qeynos.

Sorry, Rangerdown.. I tried what you said, and it didn't work!!!.. I don't know why cos' I can't SEE any reason why not.

Thanks for the effort, and it was nice of you to try.
