Silgrad Tower from the Ashes

This thread will be where I post updates on the AI for Ebbedin. I am planning on looking over the AI packages of various NPCs to see if I can make Ebbedin's exterior a little more lively. Ideas are welcome.<br /><br />No one person will stay outside throughout the day (unless he's a guard or he's homeless).<br /><br />Here is what I'm planning for numbers of NPC Citizens (not guards) outside at a given time of day, I put it in a table:<br />
<br />

<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0" align="center" class="tableinborder">

</table><br /><br />There will be a total of three guards, one for the morning shift, one for the day shift, and one for the evening shift. There will always be one guard on duty.

The planning looks good.

What about "the Pit"?
Perhaps the two guards that aren't on duty could train there.

That's actually a great idea! I'll do that. :yes:

[strike]The guards will live in the watchtower (the one serving as a guard outpost and an inn).[/strike]

EDIT: What am I saying? The barracks.
