Scripts
Scripts control the behaviour of your characters when the Artificial Intelligence (AI) is turned on. The game ships with numerous scripts (see picture) that can be assigned to the character by selecting them from a list accessible on the character sheet. The default is "None". You can also create your own scripts using a text editor or some of the third party editors designed to simplify the process. How to write scripts is described in the AICompile document present on CD1. Once the script is written, it must be compiled so that Baldur's Gate can use it. The final version of the compiler should be downloaded as the one that shipped with the game was not functional without two additional .dll files (these can be downloaded here if desired).
