Relationships are what NPC characters use to know whether they should attack or not. the entity "ai_relationship" will adjust an NPC character's relations with the Player (referred to as !Player in Hammer)or another NPC character.


The entity has quite a number of settings built into it, these though are probably the most important ones:


Subject(s) - The NPC receiving the relationship change (!Player will work also).

Target(s) - The target the picked NPC will change relationships with (!Player also works).

Disposition - Type of relationship, Hate / Neutral / Like / Fear.

Reciprocal - If true it will mirror the relationship to the Target, basically turning the Target's relationship with the Subject to whatever has been set.


Other settings:


Name - Essential if you plan to turn this on / off during game.

Radius for Subject - ????

Start Active - Whether the relationship should start active or not. (default FALSE)
