Hi there (again)!
I have 2 questions about scripting:
1. How can I make an NPC, who is invulnerable to sword, and vulnerable to bombs and hot tiles?
2. How can I make an NPC, who, if stabbed (not killed!), turns into a thing like ash or rock? I know how can I make this rock and ash, but, how can I make a script like: 'wait for player to stab me'?

I hope that it is a good thread...

Imperative: Invulnerable should do the trick. I think that it would also be killed by briars, adders, platforms, and fegundoes.
Wait for player to stab me would be like this:
If...
Wait for player(coordinates)
If...
Wait for player to face (direction)
GoTo (Label name)
If End
If End

Put that in a loop, with one for each direction.

Imperative Invulnerable also makes the character immune to hot tiles and bombs.

Making the character based off of a wubba will nicely cause the character to be immune to swords, but will still make it vulnerable to hot tiles and bombs (if I remember correctly).

'Wait for player' - do you mean 'Wait for entity player' or 'Wait for player to move'?

Remember, that NPC will go to player and kill him, this is script:
Label 'x'
Move to player
Wait 1 turns (because zombies are slow )
Go to 'x'

Any ideas?

EDIT: 2 minutes ago I discovered strange thing: The NPC, who is Wubba doesn't be like Wubba - it's invulnerable to bombs and hot tiles...

Yes, I meant wait for entity player. In that case, put the player finding script in another character (in the script database), and copy the same script into notepad (or any other text editor with find and replace capabilities). Then, find and replace 'Player' with 'Self'. Put that in the zombie's script, and then compare the variables, doing pretty much the same thing. That should work better.
