Description

In NWN2, when a PC is in combat the opponent don't chase him between zones.

With this script, creatures can chase PC across zones.

Place it in the "On enter" of your transition trigger.

I update my script for transition door too.

For transition door, place the script on the "onclick" event.

8.50 = Excellent, Recommended to any module author who wishes to allow NPC's to persue players through transitions.

Excellent, just what a Persistent World needs. Without it, too much foul play is involved. Thank you for this contribution!

Yours sincerely,

Cool idea

I just update my script to allow transition on door.
I saw that GetEnteringObject work too with "onclick event" from a door.

So you can use the same script for transition and door transition.

For standard transition, put it on "on enter" event, for door transition, put it on "on click event".

To make it compatible with Doors and Trans. Trigger, you need to use OnClick Event script (but you will have to rewrite transition code if it is a door).

ex : "object oPC=GetClickingObject();"

if ((GetObjectType(OBJECT_SELF) == OBJECT_TYPE_DOOR) && (GetIsObjectValid(destination)))
{
AssignCommand(oPC,ActionJumpToObject(destination));
}

s_harrington to avoid that you can delete the clearallaction and do the ActionJumpToObject without the delay command

I really like the idea, but before I vote on this, I would like to know how it handles multiplayer servers. What stops one pc from hopping thru the transition and issuing a ClearAllActions to everything, in the meantime his buddies that didn't go thru the transition get a free round of combat?

pretty easy to use script. Just put it on the area and it works :)
