I'd like to use caos to force my norns to drop a particular item after they've pushed it. (i.e. make it compulsary in the push script.) The CAOS help document has the promising command DROP, which is as follows:
Can anyone please show me an example of how they've used the DROP command? My TCR Norns |

How "they" as in "CL" used the drop command, but I also used it a few times. The syntax is as easy as the one of the DEAD command. In the agent idea you describe would a code like this probably be interesting for you:
 Simply TARGing and then DROP.I also used it in my Hypno Pot and the CRC. Lets play plants! Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis... |

Thanks Papriko!  I've modified the code like the following (Xes are for X-tra mystery, lol) - d'you think it'll still work like this?
Does using DROP cause the drop script (5) to trigger, if an agent has one? My TCR Norns |

Yes, the code looks fine. You can apply drop on anything that is able to carry something... creatures, vehicles, the hand... I am not sure if the drop script is executed, but probably yes. I quickly would test it with a mini-cosfile, but I am too sleepy now  (half to midnight here)In the worst case you directly MESG your agent with script 5, AFAIK is it also dropped them.

Does anyone know if this is a DS-exclusive command? My TCR Norns |

DROP is indeed a DS-only command. It throws a syntax error if you try to put it into a C3-only script. Risen Angel's Creatures Blog |

I don't know if it is because I have installed it from CIE, but my C3 solo lets me TARG NORN DROP my creatures. MANN "DROP" also works perfectly. MANN wrote: Lets play plants! Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis... Photosynthesis... |

If I gave an object a velocity in its drop script, would that make it fall away from the norn when dropped? ('escape'?)

It should, but it will do this when dropped by the hand as well. Do something like:
That will ensure that it only happens if it is dropped by a creature... I think. In theory. You'll have to test it. - Liam / K'aeloree Spellhold Studios, a Baldur's Gate II, Neverwinter Nights and Oblivion Modding Community |
