Wow. That sounds creative. "haunted exploding furniture".

Did you look at the default "character" scripts? Maybe if you run those Entities through the "ENTITY CREATOR" you can tell it to act as a person. I did this for a tractor to follow waypoints. As for the explosion....

Yes, this can be done. First, you must change the entity's .fpe to include:

ischaracter = 1

Then, in the entity's properties, make sure the entity is dynamic. You may want to play with the weight and friction so it moves easily and smoothly. You'll need to leave physics on. Give the entity a health value other than zero. For the purpose of this script, 100 will do fine. Make sure to select explodable.

Then give it a script like this. The entity probably won't have a view cone like a real character, so you don't need to use that. Just use proximity.



Play with the values to tweak it for you purpose.

Best.

subhealth=x

subhealth=100

If the entity sinks into the floor it may be that physics is off. Make sure it is on. If that doesn't work for a particular entity, use raisefactor=50 (or whatever number the entity needs to be raised) in it's .fpe file.

If the entity does not explode, make sure explodable is on and that the entity's strength is not 0 (0=indestructable).

I tested the script before I posted it, and all worked fine in the latest version.

Best.

Shouldn't you use the 'destroy' command to destroy the crate/box when they get close enough.
Then just set the explodable setting to true and physics to on.

Simply destroying the entity will not make it explode, though. You would need to "kill" the entity, which can be done with the subhealth command as xplosys did.
