Special_Abilities on the fly in Perl?

[Hateborne]

Afternoon ladies/gents/trolls,

I'm curious on how one might modify npc special_abilities on the fly through perl? I'm having issues with $npc->NPCSpecialAttacks as two comma delimited bits would trainwreck and it does not accept the special_abilities as a string:

$npc->NPCSpecialAttacks("12,1^13,1^14,1", 0);

I then tried the bit below, no luck.

$npc->ModifyNPCStat("special_abilities", "12,1^13,1^14,1");
$npc->ModifyNPCStat("special_attacks", "12,1^13,1^14,1");

Is there a way to edit these on the fly? What I'm trying to accomplish is to get a mob to ignore combat and charge at another NPC. If there are other ways to accomplish this, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. Also, if a way to handle these on-the-fly is possible, that would be incredibly helpful too.


Thank You!
