Can you script an NPC to attack funcbreakables?

[OCD2]

Hello,

Was wondering if you can can you script an NPC to target and attack funcbreakables when the NPC comes in proximity to the funcbreakable in a map?

Or would that be a coding mod?

It might be possible to have an invisible and invincible NPC that your NPC wants to attack, with the func_breakable being "collateral damage."

Other than that, I think it might be possible with scripting? I'm not all that experienced with that sort of thing, so I don't know for sure.

Ah, I see your line of thinking.   That seems like it could produce the effect im trying to achieve.

Could the invisible invincible NPC then be connected to the funcbreakable somehow, so that when the funcbreakable is destroyed, the invisible invincible NPC "disappears"/dies?

I think (but I'm not 100% sure) that you can set a deathscript to the func_breakable to remove (through script) the NPC:

//(BHVD)
remove ( "NPC targetname" );

I'll have to give that a try, thank you.

If the deathscript doesn't work you can target a scriptrunner from the func_breakable and use that to run the script when it is broken.
