While those are rather humurous scenarios, Nick ...


Glad you like them. :)

If that is what he is trying to do, how about simply using the "on time interval" mob prog (whatever its name is, I'm not at my PC right now), and if it is in appropriate room, and sees an appropriate player, moves?

It may not be where things are leading in this thread now, but the mpsleep code is available from http://www.mudbytes.net/index.php?a=files&s=viewfile&fid=509 which includes the bugfix for it as well. I've never used it on a mob that is supposed to wander around, so the results might not be desirable, but this will provide the ability to delay commands in a prog.

instead of the mobiles....

I am thinking about the following code:
look
if inroom($i) == 9902
mpdelay 3
south
look
if inroom($i) == 9904
mpdelay 3
west
look
if inroom($i) == 9903
mpdelay 3
northwest
look
if inroom($i) == 9901
mpdelay 3
south
look
if inroom($i) == 9900
mpdelay 3
east
look at $n
endif
endif
endif
endif
endif
:would it work ? If not how can I change it ?

I might need to use mpsleep instead of mpdelay, and/or put the current code in a loop....
But I'm not sure....

Would I need to mark an option that keeps her from wandering off her designated path, if so how would I do that ?

The sentinel flag prevents a mob from moving unless a program moves it around, so it sounds like that's what you want.
