Summary

If you add an editable to a NPC Character Definition file, you should be able to set them in the NPC Definition window but no matter how you select a value for them there, it stays as “none”. Whereas if you have use the “NPC Behavior Script Override” and set the definition file in there compared to doing it in the Character Definition window then it allows you to set the device that is an editable in the verse script file
