Just an FYI... No SLEEP Teraforming.
Unfortunately this comes from recent experience.
Moon Dance may be Wonky for awhile

yes I think so. The massive instruction note card should tell you how it works.
I think you have to rez a peg/way point/marker thingy, then rez another, then you have to touch them in the correct order to join them. You keep adding and joining until you end up building a kind of web of points that have particles joining the allowable paths between all the markers you placed. At some points in the process you can type a name to label a marker. if setup correctly you can tell the NPC to go to any of the marker names and it will work out the best path to take to get there. It should generate a note card with all the markers listed so you can edit the names in there.
It is a little confusing, but when it is setup properly it works quite well. I has been about a year since i mapped out my sim with it, so i have probably not explained it properly, but hopefully you get the idea.

Thank you so much :) I am learning by trial and error. I have found that I can take some of the animesh and change or add to their scripts with some thing I have in i nventory. That works OK but a bit limited. I want to be able to make NPC from Avitars and be able to have them Do different things . Say Belly dance but it is several of the animations rather than one. As I said so far it has been all trial and error. I do like the idea of being able to control them. I have a Genie bottle that I can create a copy of my Avi and rezz her but Can't do anything else' She "Breathes " but that is about it. I picked up the Action NPC thing yesterday and the NPC appearance card maker. I THOUGHT I had it all figured out but back to square 1 *sighs

The other system I mentioned which is just a bunch of scripts from outworldz will allow you to generate the appearance from your avatar, then using the inbuilt recorder you can make it walk from where it spawns to a location then play animations or sit on objects. You can program it to say things, and change its outfit if you made more then one appearance note card.
You could make it walk into a changing room, then change into a new outfit, then walk back out and do something else.
When you have recorded a list if things for it to do, I will put the list in a note card and you can then see how the commands work, and add some more without having to rerecord the whole thing. All the commands were on the website i linked to.
in the end I found it easier to just write out the note card manually if it didn't involve making a path to walk along.
I ultimately ended up using the chat command script to listen for commands, and made a script say things to control the NPC. I made a script with a sensor to detect when an avatar was nearby and the script would say a bunch of commands to make the NPC do stuff.
NPC's are frustrating to figure out, but its quite satisfying when you finally get them to do things in a convincing manor.

It is all so very interesting. I love learning new things. This that you are speaking of now sounds like what I am looking for. I need several NPC's all different But that is just my Avi changing. Different themes, Holidays and what have you.
Thank you so much :)
