These zombies dead animation repeated itself. I assume it's because of the script. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

The problem with the old style AI scripts is that GG changed such that when an entities health goes below 0 the scripts _main function no longer gets executed, you either need to change them to use to newer AI scripts (not sure if they will be compatible though) or change the existing scripts to set the initial health to some large value and trigger death when it goes below that value instead of on 0.

For example if you set the initial health to 1000 + the entities health and change the triggering of death as when health < 1000.

I just added a new script to my previous post. Try that out and see if it's better.

I had to set the health to 100000!

Btw I just did some experimenting and the advanced weapons hand grenade, when right next to an entity when it explodes, does over 40,000 health points of damage!

I'd call that a bit of overkill.

Wow that might explain why I was having some issues with enemies of which I was intentionally making their health 10,000 so that when they "due" they don't right away ragdoll till I want them to. Guess i need to up that to 100,000 too due to that 40,000 explosion damage lol

Yeah I had a lot of scripts setting initial health to 1000, that used to work fine. Now I'm using 1,000,000 just to be on the safe side.

Funny thing is exploding barrels no longer give any damage!

Why oh why do they keep breaking things that worked fine?

I have tried it, it does not always happen anymore, but this problem still occurs
