I was wondering how you use these commands, some are self-explanitory, but some aren't.

sp_attack_wait()
sp_base_attack()
sp_base_death()
sp_brain()
sp_distance()
sp_exp()
sp_range()
sp_target()
sp_touch_damage()

What I mean is, what do you put in the (), do you put &whatever, 16 (Example for the brain) or the setting first and then the spite's name? Also, how do you measure the distance for sp_range() and sp_distance()?

thanks!

Thanks!

But one thing, it isn't quite clear on the sp_distance()

*EDIT*

I guess sp_distance() isn't that important,

Too late! I'm acknowledging it!

sp_range() controls how close a monster with a base_attack will get before it attacks. sp_distance(), controls how far the attack actually reaches. So if you used sp_range(100) and sp_distance(50), the poor monster would always be attacking before Dink is close enough.

It's realleasy to mix these two up.
