On your ai you want to patrol, make sure you don't use "Does Patrol" True. Name the ai you want to patrol, like Dave, Peter, ect.

In your drop down conversation menu:

Use the drop down menu:"Add/remove meta-property"

Add
M-DoesPatrol
Dave

If you wan't to see how LGS did it, look at miss5.mis around to the right of where Garrett begins. Back by the wall, two women are having a conversation. IRRC, it is named WomenConv.

A unit or so from the well, create a marker, and name it like "Well" make sure the marker is only a unit or so from the ground.
Using your conversation drop down menu:"GoTo"

1.Well

2.Dave

(The third argument would be for speed, so if you don't need it, skip it.)

Edit: Instead creating a new marker, the ai will stop at the trolpt if it is named like the above.


Using your drop down menu again: Add/remove metaproperty
1.Remove
2.M-DoesPatrol
3.Dave

The ai goes to the marker, and it would be easier if he were to face the well without turning around to do so, so if you need more markers, say around obstacles, it is fine to use as many as you need. Once the ai reaches the marker then the M-DoesPatrol is removed, and the guard will just stand there. If you don't want him to return to his origin:Return to origin:false

This could be a conflict in commands.

Double check your patrolling ai, and look at his properties:Make sure nothing under "patrol" shows. Ability Settings>DoesPatrol:False (If this is showing delete it)

He should stop at the goto marker, or another way is to have him goto the marker first, and skip the Add>M-doespatrol, until after he waits at the well for awhile, then add>M-DoesPatrol, so he will continue to walk from trolpt to trolpt.

In this case:

GoTo:
1.Well
2.Dave

Wait:
1.30000
2.IdleGesture 0

Add/Remove Metaproperty:
1.Add
2.M-DoesPatrol
3.Dave
