Getting an NPC to use Force powers only, like a cultist

[kibasennin]

title says it all.

I'm trying to get Snoke to use only force powers, but when I type in WP_MELEE in the npc document, he just chases me with his fists, and when I write WP_NONE or just out nothing, he shoots me with an invisible gun.

Anyone got a clue?

One way would be to have him replace one of the actual cultist npcs, or one of the Reborn twins. These specific NPCs are hardcoded to never use primary attacks and only use force powers.

It's strange because I have seen it done before. Like, in the old Knight of the Force mod, made by that turkish dude? Emperor Palpatine from Episode 6 literally only uses Force Lightning (and Force Grip, I think). And they didn't need to replace him with one of the cultist npcs.

I made my own ancient Sith Lord NPC, with the Cultist class applied. It had a different model, no weapons and used Lightning extensively.

It's important to note, that the Class would work differently depending if other conditions are met as well: like a number of weapons (or lack of these), level of Force powers and other lines inside the *.npc file.

Just for info: in Jedi Outcast, NPC_Class wouldn't work, if the NPC file didn't have the standard class word in the name of the NPC.
For example: Jack wouldn't work in JO, but Jedi_Jack, as well as rodian_Jack would be able to act as a Jedi or as a Rodian respectively. Only for Jedi Outcast.

Npcs named 'emperor' are hardcoded to use force powers only

force power only melee is hardcoded (like a ton of damned things that make absolutely hard to deep code )  for works only with cultist_ and emperor_ NPCs, sorry guys.
