How to Reduce Maxspeed for critter?

[DrChef]

Hello, I'm trying to create a monster that shuffles around very slowly.
I know r_char_base_maxspeed can give critters a speed boost, but not reduce their speed to the amount I want. Since this value can't be negative, how would I reduce a critter's speed?

Code: Select all

maxspeed = (40 + bonusmovespeed + deltamovespeed + getattr(STAT_AGILITY) / 4.f) * mul;

So basically, decrease agility...
Or overload them with useless items (try the F_NATURAL flag to prevent them from being picked up).
Or apply a permanent status effect that decreases their speed, easiest to do that via armour.

Great! I just created a "weight" item to slow it down. Thanks.
