Making enemy cres

[Kish]

Is there a tutorial anywhere on making non-joinable NPCs? I seem to have encountered a very strange problem where some of the enemies I've created crash the game when they try to spawn, and I have very little idea why.

I usually take an ingame cre of what I want to have, and give it a new script variable and dialogue file etc. - If a cre crashes, it could be the animation, or, if you changed the colors of the cre (hair, armor, etc.) "by hand", e.g. in NI, it can crash the game, too, because not all colors are suited for all instances. I usually look at other cre files in NI and only asign color numbers I see used in the game.
