SetCreatureExploresMinimap(object, int)

Note: This article documents Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition new content or changes/updates/fixes to 1.69 functions. These are all listed under the category and patches pages.

Sets whether the creature will auto-explore the minimap as it walks around.

int SetCreatureExploresMinimap(
    object creature,
    int newState
);

Parameters

creature

The creature to set the exploration state.

newState

whether auto-exploration is on (TRUE) or off (FALSE).

Description

Sets the creature to auto-explore the map as it walks around.

Keep in mind that tile exploration also controls object visibility in areas and the fog of war for interior and underground areas.

This means that if you turn off auto exploration, it falls to you to manage this through SetTileExplored(); otherwise, the player will not be able to see anything.

Does nothing for non-creatures.

Returns the previous state (or -1 if non-creature).

Version

This function was added in 1.74.8154 of NWN:EE.
