A_SentinelBob

(no parameters)

Makes the object bob. This function has to be called repeatedly in a loop for a permanent effect. The effect of this function is not the same as using the FLOATBOB flag.

Examples

For an example how this works it is best to look at Strife's Sentinel:

actor Sentinel 3006
{
  health 100
  painchance 255
  speed 7
  radius 23
  height 53
  mass 300
  conversationid 91
  minmissilechance 150
  seesound "sentinel/sight"
  deathsound "sentinel/death"
  activesound "sentinel/active"
