📑MonsterAIAutomata

State machine that determines when a monster changes behavior (e.g., from "idle" to "chasing," from "chasing" to "attacking," or from "attacking" to "fleeing"). Used by MonsterAIUnit.txt.

Column	Accepted Values	Description
Number	Number, one per state machine	Identifies this state machine. Referenced by the Automata column in MonsterAIUnit.txt.
Name	Text enclosed in quotes	Description of the transition (e.g., "General -> Go"), used for identification only.
Priority	Number, in sequence (0, 1, 2...)	Order in which this transition rule is evaluated within the same current state.
CurrentState	Number	The state the monster must currently be in for this rule to apply.
NextState	Number	The state the monster transitions to if the rule is triggered.
TransitionType	Number (fixed code)	Condition that triggers the state change (e.g., always, time-based, health-based, distance-based).
TransitionRate	Number (%)	Chance that the transition actually occurs when the condition is met.
TransitionValueType	Number, or *	Determines how TransitionValue is interpreted. * = not used.
TransitionValue	Number, or *	Value used by the condition (e.g., distance, time, health percentage). * = not used.
DelayTime	Number, in milliseconds	Minimum interval before this transition can be evaluated again.

Notes

• The states (CurrentState/NextState) are fixed internal server values (e.g., idle, chase, attack, flee)—the same numbering scheme is used across all state machines in the file.

• A single CurrentState may have multiple entries with different Priority values—the server evaluates the lowest Priority first.
