simple.bs script

I used to have a really nice (and simple) script, that I thought was
called "Simple.bs"

The two features I remember it having (that I liked) were that thieves
would "always" search for traps, if they weren't in combat, and it
would base attacks on what order weapons were in inventory slots (so if
you had a bow in the first slot a character would do ranged attacks by
default).

Generally it was a small and lightweight script and it was meant to
take care of micro-managing, not be a "do-everything" script. It may
have had some other small features, but, those are the two I remember.

I found a copy at this site:

http://www.fortunecity.com/boozers/winelodge/79/

I tagged it to Imoen. However, she's _not_ searching for traps
automatically. Which leads me to wonder if I'm using the wrong script.

I extracted 'simple.bs' to the scripts/ directory.
I made sure Imoen was using simple.bs (not simple.bcs or simple.txt).
I made sure Imoen does have the simple script assigned to her.

Any suggestions on getting it to work (or getting the correct script?)

Do you have AI turned on? Sometimes I turn it off to micro manage,
forget to turn it back on, and think my scripts have stopped working
once I'm done with whatever encounter I wanted to micro manage.

I have scripts which base attacks by weapon slots, and a thief script
which does what you need. It may have been one of my scripts...I will
send it to you if you like.

Is she wearing anything that prevents her from using her thieving skills?

I tested it, and finding traps turns on automatically for Imoen. As others
have suggested, ensure that AI is on. Can you manually turn on detect
traps? You are playing BG2 right? This script won't work with BG1.

That sounds like something I could use. I'm terrible at this. Would you
mind sending me a copy?

Thanks.

Except that they don't, as many in this group have confirmed in the
past. I suggest you pass on them. It'll make your life a lot easier if
you get a virtual restraining order against any of his scripts.
