Grimrock

As some were asking about my progress thus far, they were also asking for a demo. Took a few days to get one, but I've got a development demo out on NexusMods.

I've be glad to hear some constructive criticism!

... I think it would be cool to discuss. Some are still around, but as near as any can tell the IP is effectively dead, for a seeming lack of interest from the developers. Very sad.:( The game still works superbly though. :) There is a Discord channel that seems more popular than the official forum...

Another possibility for forcing the monster to stay still, is in the monster's def file, add an action: { class = “MonsterAction”, name = “stayStill”, animation = “idle”, }, That uses the animation of "idle", but skips the hardcoded logic for brain:wait() and lets you return true to stop ...

You need one more "end" (without a comma). The first "end" finishes your "if elseif" statement. The second one finishes the function. - The first one has no comma, the second one does. elseif PerformAct == theraA1F then self.performAction("theraA1F") end, }, ...

You could disable turning, so it won't happen randomly - I believe brain:performAction() will still work if called from onThink(). Then the monster will walk and pause as usual, not so mechanically, and it will only turn when you tell it to. And also disable attacks for NPCs, so that no default beh...
