Can´t get this to work...

Im trying to get zombies to actually hunt me down and kill me. Ive tried with all kinds of flags on and off (using npc_zombie), nodes etc, but he wont attack me.

So, how exactly do you make NPC attack other players in HL2DM?

Note: My map is about survinig zombies, if that helps (if yo have an idea that is).

Thanks.

Here is what I did for having Striders actually walk around the map and stomp on people (yet I can't get them to actually fire anything):

I created an ai_relationships entity next to the zombies. Subject would be npc_strider (in your case, npc_zombie) and the target is player.

Now, what you have to do is get some sort of breakable item, like a prop_physics box or something. In the outputs tab in the object properties, make a new thing that has OnBreak, ApplyRelationship to npc_zombie. Either put the box next to the player and have the player break it, or have the box free fall from 100 ft in the air (this is what I did, and I made sure it was out of the player's view so it looks completely transparant). Bingo, the AI should work in HL2DM.

haha.. that's what i call a cool walkaround.. *g*
why don't u just trigger the event with.. erm.. a trigger?
(never made a sp-map for hl2.. just mp.. so i don't know exactly what i am talking about.. but it SHOULD work with a trigger... hehe)
