Task

A Task is a logical step in a schedule, it can be seen as a sequential set of steps the NPC must take in order to accomplish a schedule.

custom tasks may be added to your NPC by first declaring a new enum.

enum 
{
	TASK_JUMP = LAST_SHARED_TASK,
        TASK_FIND_DODGE_DIRECTION,
 
};

Then you would need to add the tasks in your custom schedule in the order you wish them to execute, notice TASK_FIND_DODGE_DIRECTION has been given a value of 200, you can pass data through with your tasks and use them when the task logic is executed.
