M Team If I understand you correctly, you want to use one of the scripts with the "follow waypoints"
in the "people" folder. The "follow.fpi" is a basic waypoint script to start with. You'll want to expand
with that script though. As for your npc getting stuck in walls that's a different problem.
You may need to explain your situation a little more if this is not what your after ?
My games never have bugs. They just develop random features..
Lots and lots of random features...

Dark AI is the only way to use automatic pathfinding. All of the stock scripts just run straight for the player, even through walls.
You could script your own to fake it.
I'm working on a general character script that uses a raycast to see if it's hit a wall and then turns in a random direction to walk again before going back to the player direction.
That's how the doom engine did it and it works okay for dumb monster AI.
If something compiles on the first try. Something is terribly wrong.

Nice to see some still using this. I used a lot of raycast on some scripts with sort of limited success.
I hope your turns out better
