Detailed Description
The following definitions are for the attack_movement variable in monsters if the attack_variable movement is left out of the monster archetype, or is set to zero the standard mode of movement from previous versions of crossfire will be used. the upper four bits of movement data are not in effect when the monst er has an enemy. these should only be used for non aggressive monsters. to program a monsters movement add the attack movement numbers to the movem ment numbers example a monster that moves in a circle until attacked and then attacks from a distance: CIRCLE1 = 32 + DISTATT = 1 ------------------- attack_movement = 33
