ANY spell? Does this include minor Clerical/Innate spells like Cure Light wounds? I doubt Firkraag would throw a fit if he were to see Aerie cast this upon herself. A little over the top, IMO.

Still, excellent work overall, KR. I've downloaded every single one of your AI improvements (dragons, liches, beholders etc.) and have been impressed by the quality of your work. You've made a great game even better. Keep up the good job!

Well wound't you get little bit agitated if someone started waving their hands and mumbling some words in front of you? (in RPG naturally)

would you take their word for it, that it's just a heal spell not imprisonment etc.?

I managed to kill a dragon (dont remember which one) 1 time, but the tactic hasn't worked since. This is how i did it: first i casted 3 pierce magics at the same time (with Imoen Haerdalis and my cleric/mage) since Imoen finished her spell i let her cast time stop, by the time she finished that one Qeturah and Haerdy already were casting a few magic missile flam arrow etc. Imoen improved alicracy in her time stop and then so many magic missiles i couldn't count them. When the time stop ended i just had to sit back and enjoy the fireworks
dunno if he was totally finished or nearly dead, in that case i would have send Valygar speeding in to chop him up (he's soooo good in that

@KensaiRyu:

The dragon turning hostile when seeing dragon scale armor can cause some problems in the underdark: Andalon turns hostile if you wear the Red/Shadow Dragon Scale.

The improved dragon AI is just great! I have just one comment:

An approach that would be more realistic to me (but would also involve "some" modding):

-Wielding dragon-slaying equipment:
*Good party, good dragon: Dragon asks what PC intends; but casts a few buff spells just in case. Attacking/laying traps/... turns the dragon hostile. (perhaps only for silver dragons, as they are know to be more benevolent towards the lesser races)
*Evil dragon: Attack wielders

-Wearing Dragon armor:
*Good party, good dragon: Dragon thanks PCs for killing an evil dragon, but warns them not to try to do .the same thing to him.
*Evil party, evil dragon: Dragon lets the PCs go away just because they gave him the opportunity to expand its territory without any combat. Dragon will attack if PC don't leave fast enough.
*Good party, evil dragon / evil party, good dragon: attack on sight

Anybody agree?

Download the AI now, it's certainly worth it!!
