Known Issues

When arriving at a waypoint that has the variable X2_L_WAYPOINT_SETFACING set to 1 on it, the creature will either face east or, if the waypoint is a POST waypoint, do a step (dance) every heartbeat. This is caused by a minor bug in the WalkWayPoints function and can be fixed by replacing lines 414-421 with following block of code:

  // *Bugfix - prevent NPCs from facing east or twitching on each HB at POST_/etc. waypoints
  if (GetDistanceToObject(oWay) > 1.5 || GetArea(oWay)!= GetArea(OBJECT_SELF))
     ActionMoveToObject(oWay, nRun);
  if (GetLocalInt(oWay,"X2_L_WAYPOINT_SETFACING") == 1 && fabs(GetFacing(oWay) - GetFacing(OBJECT_SELF)) > 20.0)
     ActionDoCommand(SetFacing(GetFacing(oWay)));

Alternatively, this block of code can be used (it addresses the issue above as well as the issue where, after a conversation, the creature continues facing wherever the PC was). Insert this block of code beginning at line 387:

  //Bugfix - if I'm already at my POST, I should not continue walking waypoints
  object oPostWP = GetNearestObjectByTag("POST_" + GetTag(OBJECT_SELF));
  if (GetDistanceToObject(oPostWP) < 1.5)
  {
      //Bugfix - if I'm not using the correct facing, reset my facing
      if (GetLocalInt(oPostWP, "X2_L_WAYPOINT_SETFACING") == 1 && (GetFacing(OBJECT_SELF) != (GetFacing(oPostWP))) )
      {
          SetFacing(GetFacing(oPostWP));
      }
      return;
  }

NOTE: Use one fix OR the other, NOT both.
