How do I get a Dilophosaurus to bite?

Post by glitchhunter09 »

This might be pretty dumb of me to ask, but I can't get the normal Dilo (the one that's not programmed to spit, the one that bites) to bite. When I put it into a level, it just walks around and looks at me. How do I fix this? Would it be bite target distance and act bite? I tried this once and it didn't do anything iirc. I've looked at the T-Script of the one on TC Isle and I'm not really sure if there's anything out of the oridinary there. Also looked at the one in JPDS test level and couldn't find anything either.

I've wondered what that was, too. I don't think I've ever seen one attack me, either. Anyone knows how and when they bite? :?:

Well in the JPDS test stage, a couple of the Contest level entries, and TC Isle, they bite instead of spit. Setting up a spitting Dilo's even more complicated than a biting one, which is why I'm asking what I need. Also, the Compy doesn't attack me either....

I just played TC-isle, and found that the dilophosaurus only attacked me 30 seconds or so after I first saw it. Apparently it stays passive for a while before attacking ( like what happened to Nedry in the first movie).

Although I couldn't tell you how to set up anything in TresEd, simply because I don't have much experience with it :? As I said before (sadly), someone else probably has an answer.

I figured it out. It's the ActBite and Bite Target Distance commands that control it. Thanfully, the Dilo and Compy in the old contestlev (which I'm using as a base for my stage btw. Well actually two different stages.) have the bitetargetdistance command filled in, you just have to manually add ActBite to the T-script for them.
