addition:
not all NPC actions can be done by all bodytypes.
If an action doesn't work despite all conditions being met, try assigning a fighting bodytpye (e.g. reg male, reg female) to the character in question using proedit
addition:
some npc actions (e.g. action 8, running, or action 3 opening closest door, or action 150 teleporting) are used in conjunction with movement (see earlier the explanations on movement)
teleporting needs no path from one grid to the other.
the activation of these actions may slightly differ from script to script and according to which programme you use.
addition:
Dual-use scripts:
The scripts 160-196 are used for deidranna-elliot cut scenes:
Elliot Record Deidranna Record
Event: Omerta 180 160
Event: Drassen 181 161 15
Event: Cambria 182 162
Event: Alma 183 163
Event: Grumm 184 164
Event: Chitzena 185 165
Event: NW sam site 186 166
Event: NE sam site 187 167
Event: Central sam site 188 168 57
Event: Sent Flowers 189 169
Event: Won back a town 190 170 70
Event: Interrogation 191 171 73
Event: lose support scifi 192 172 101
Event: Skyrider 193 173 109
Event: Madlab Quest 194 174 113
Event: approach meduna 195 175
Event: Balime 196 176
however, current prof.dat's go up to slot 169. (Mods like Demise of Man may have even more slots, but demise of man also has the possibility to use "alternate npc scripts" so these slots don't conflict in DoM)
This means, for example, that your script for character 163's npc interaction is the same script that is used for deidranna during the "alma" cut scene. So you're not supposed to carelessly overwrite it in order to change slot 163's behaviour. Rather "add" your records for slot 163 after the records needed for the cut scene. According to my observations, these records ARE used and not, as we coudl suspect, be ignored.
Remark to this example: slot 163 might be used for vehicles or other "invisible" profiles. Handle with care times two...
