So, I made a Techsmith..

...And I want to like my Gondsman, but he does some pretty stupid stuff sometimes. For example running past mobs as he charges them, or even does nothing and just stands there! I'm guessing this is just a fault of the game's AI? Is it something that can be fixed?

Also, it'd be nice if the Gondsman's model was redone. As it is now, it's a stretched model and slow moving as in it's movements don't match it's pacing as it walks/runs.

Anyway, these are just my concerns. Anyone else agree? Disagree? Want to complain about my "complaining" lol? Apparently criticism or just plain observations are considered complaining nowadays.

Fiddle with your AI settings in the character window. The default settings are apparently rubbish.

Any recommendations? I've tried guard near and follow near, guard far and follow near. Any other settings I'm missing?

You can also add the "attack", "hold position" and "follow" commands into your hotbar. It makes it easier to control summons and other AI controlled creatures.

So I played with Techsmith Also. Once I even saw my Gondsman using acid breath. Never saw him using it again. Upgrading is bugged, sometimes I pass the DC and he does not receive what he should and it says that hes already full on enchants. His reactions...he can sometimes stand and not attack even on guard me or attack nearest command. He seems to have rare case of Brain Delay

I'll at least say thanks for the upgrade in visuals! The golem actually has a face now! Awesome!

Now if only his model wasn't stretched.

Yeah, I started doing this. It works well. Too bad people get annoyed by my char's voice happening every time a command is sent heh.

Nevermind.. Seems that texture is a bug.

When I use displacement on my gondsman and then let it run out, he seems to get that default golem texture. If I change areas or map, his default gondsman texture comes back.
