Thanks for the good info!!mister_prophet wrote: ↑Sat Apr 10, 2021 12:06 amThat's an actor from Unreal that just happens to be included with the UT codebase. It was intended for if the player shot a friendly Nali in the campaign. If you accidently (or intentionally) hurt a Nali, ALL the Nali in a single map would be frightened of you. Presumably triggering one of those would revert them to normal. Not that I've actually seen too many people use it outside of those strict conditions. As for Bots being hostile to Nali, there could be some design methods to help prevent that. I'm not sure what your level looks like or how you did the event, but perhaps there is a way to "block" the bots from actually seeing the Nali themselves. It's been awhile since I made a UT99 map and I don't know what pawn changes were made in 469 yet, but maybe an ICH? Don't quite remember if bots can see through them.
I tried to get it to work but that actor never seemed to do anything.
When I planned the idea out I used Nali because they seemed like the obvious choice, maybe they were the friendliest creature to use since they didn't attack you on site. I never played the original unreal until much later and that was a long time ago so I don't know much about the monsters and that first game. I just thought it would be a cool idea to rescue a nali from a prison, and then during the rescue you yourself were captured, so the mission was to free yourself and then find and rescue the nali. I get that the monster hunt gametype had a lot to do with bots attacking any creatures. I just never thought of the nali as anything that needed attacking, like a cow or a rabbit. So I was a bit surprised when the bots attacked the nali as soon as he was released from his cell. lol I was like, okay, that's fresh.
Your avatar is scaring me. lol
Anyway, if you are interested in saving the nali map it's development thread is here the map:

And the no nali map is here where you just escape yourself and teammates.:

Not sure if the downloads are still there or not. If you want to try it out and they are expired, let me know and I can reupload the zip file somewhere.
