Trader AI

[C][G GhostTown™ 190]

Hey all,

I want to add some ambient AI around my trade zones, like guards and such.

What is the best way to go about this? Having them static and such? creating different positions?

Did you find a way for that?
I want to know that too!

You can add NPCs with animations to your initPlayerLocal.sqf.  Here's an example of a guard I have patrolling in my Klem trader city:

Spoiler

["Exile_Guard_01", ["InBaseMoves_patrolling2"], "", "WhiteHead_20", [["arifle_MX_khk_F","muzzle_snds_H_khk_F","","optic_ERCO_khk_F",["30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag",30],[],"bipod_01_F_khk"],[],[],["U_B_T_Soldier_F",[["30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag",30,3]]],["V_PlateCarrier1_tna_F",[]],["B_AssaultPack_tna_F",[]],"H_HelmetB_Enh_tna_F","G_Tactical_Black",[],["","","","","",""]], [11446.9, 11361.8, 317.241], [-0.996226, 0.0867923, 0], [0, 0, 1]]

They're not AI in that you cannot interact with them but they are animated.    And you can stack animations so they'll do them in the order you list them. All animations can be accessed via 3den or of you go back to the original developer's post on 3den in this forum, they have a section listing some animations they thought would be appropriate for traders.

Question, will the guards attack patrolling DMS/Occupation AI? Currently my patrols open whoop ass on my trader guards but they do not shoot back?
