Character

Player character

NPCs

AI

  • people
    • attack when attacked
    • chit-chat with other NPCs
    • firing weapons/kicking causes some to cower, run away, scream, and/or shoot back
    • face/look at player when he breaks glass
    • peeing on causes comments, some to barf, shoot player, and/or cough and wipe pee off face
    • running into causes comments
  • cats: attracted to catnip, run away when approached too quickly (sometimes) or if peed on or something thrown at
  • dogs: attack cats (sometimes), some growl and/or attack when approached, most will befriend (and attack enemies of) player if given a dog biscuit, pee on dead bodies, retrieve thrown objects (except food which they eat), sometimes take a crap after eating (I've seen the turds appear but haven't actually seen a dog leave one yet)
