*'''[[Aggression]]:''' If the actor's disposition toward another actor falls below this level, it will initiate combat (Though in the case of 0 confidence actors, they will flee instead.)
==AI-Attributes==
AI-Attributes are parameters of a general impact on the behaviour of the character.  


*'''[[Aggression]]:''' This value controls whether or not a NPC enters combat. If the NPC's disposition toward another actor (or PC) falls below this level, it will initiate combat. The higher this value is set the more likely the NPC is to fight.


A setting of 5 or below means an actor will fight when it or its companions are in combat. A setting of zero means it will only engage in combat if directly attacked, even if its companions are in danger.
A setting of 5 or below means it will not initiate combat by itself, but will enter combat if directly attacked or to protect a member of the same faction.


A setting of zero means it will refuse combat even if attacked or a fellow faction member is attacked.


*'''[[Confidence]]:''' A measure of how likely the actor is to attack or flee in combat. It is not a die roll, but a threshold for a complicated, deterministic calculation. A setting of 100 guarantees the actor will never flee, while 0 means it will always flee.

*'''Energy Level:''' Is a measure for the agility of an actor. Determines frequency and speed of moves to new locations when executing Wander packages, and may or may not modify the distance it will allow to accumulate between itself and the actor it is following.


*'''Energy Level:''' Determines how often the actor moves to a new location when executing Wander packages, and may or may not modify the distance it will allow to accumulate between itself and the actor it is following.
*'''[[Responsibility]]:''' Determines how willing the actor is to commit a crime and whether or not it will report crimes. Settings below 30 means the actor will commit a crime (i.e. steal food if given an eat package). A setting of 100 means the actor can report crimes directly without a guard being present.  


Ironically, creatures also report crimes if they have low responsibility levels, though when they attack an NPC, it is not considered committing a crime. Horses, if given responsibility levels, will report that they've been stolen if it saw you when you mounted it, and remove you from guilds if you attacked it.

==Services==
 
 
If creatures did commit crimes, it would mean they would have to be arrested, although because the majority of creatures are either daedric beings or wild animals, arresting these actors would make no sense.

*'''Buys/Sells:''' Only meaningful for NPCs. The NPC will buy or sell these classes of items. If one wishes for a creature merchant to exist, scripting is required for such to happen.
