| Author | control of NPC in MQ! |
|---|
just out of a mercenary quest "defend our friends"-style.
The more i play this kind of quests, the more i feel the urge to control those stupid npc that i am supposed to protect ^^':
So, i would like:
- the magi not to shoot my own units :p
- the ranged units not to retaliate if an enemy gets close to them :O
- the same ranged units to shoot where they need, instead of wasting 1 arrow for a single poisoned unit that will die as soon as its turn comes..
- farmers to defend instead of waiting :\
and so on..
All in all, i wish to be my own partner instead of depending from the AI, wich i suspect to be partial :D.
Dunno if the idea was already proposed, but since every hero can have monks in his/her troops, notwithstanding his race, i think everything is already implemented on the tecnical side.. it is just a matter of settings, so... O_O |
| It is the point of vanguards your ally is making stupid mistakes. |
the ranged units not to retaliate if an enemy gets close to them
read:
the ranged units not to [quote ]*HIT* if an enemy gets close to them (so that they don't take the retail) |
| +1 i always see that people lose vanguard cuz of these stuff |
| agreed, a very good idea :) |
| The difficulty of the quest include the stupidity of the NPC. If they knew what to do, they wouldn't need you saving them... |
for Takesister:
your point is good,but how do you feel if you are almost to win a vanguard of wizard batel and a garg is standing right next to the archer and he attacks the gargs and die
or when you are about to spell the vampirs and win and the magi killes his protecters by his shot and the vamps kill it
huh? |
for LWM_Dante:
Thats why you have to -DEFEND- The archers.
Kill the vamps with your archers and have a good defense around the magi so if it shoots it wont kill you. Take out apps with everything else |
for LWM_Dante:
Happens lots of time. So plan to expect such actions from them.
When the other Vanguards (Elf, Demon, Barb) come, it will be worse in my opinion. I had seen a Shrew (the one being protected) run out of the defensive wall, attack and stay outside to get killed in a Vang of Barb. it's scary... |
| they are supposed to be NPC right? |
^^ Yeah right, if could add more NPC unit at 1 quest :D
The difficulty of the quest include the stupidity of the NPC
^^ Not really stupid, just blatantly stubborn :p |

| +1 its really annoying to see the npc suiciding or falling in your back (Magi) |
for Decrous:
magi haven`t made me lose once but i`m saying that he wil do one time
for Takesister:
see that is my point |
| i almoust won a vanguard of necros(3) or 2 but magi killed my mino and appariton killed him |
to Takesister
yep happend to me lots of time i left a hole.i thought the shrew would, wait and when they komm to us, attack then and i would cover the hole with my mino but she just rann to the middle of the battlefield and suicided |
