    I have the advanced AI on for everyone. The only problem I'm having is Imoen. She wont do ANYTHING on her own. No spells, attacks or detecting traps. She just stands there in combat and I have to make her find traps. I had Nalia for a while and she worked perfectly fine so it shouldn't be a bug with the class??
    I have her with:

    attack enemies
    use special abilities
    use offensive spells
    use defensive spells
    find traps

    Is there something I'm missing? She wont do anything on her own like everyone else.

    That's wierd - Imoen works fine with advanced AI for me. (At least in chateau Irenicus, i don't have a save in/after spellhold to test.)
    I assume she isn't wearing any armor that would prevent her from casting spells ? though even if she were, i'd assume an 'advanced' ai to notice so and go on to melee/ranged attacks.

    Try to set the script to 'None' then back to 'Advanced AI' again, to see if that makes it trigger/work again.

    If that doesn't work, you could try setting the script to 'Thief Controlled' - if automatically finding traps works with that script, at least you know that it's an issue with the advanced AI specifically, and not scripts in general.

    I switched it to Thief Controlled and she immediately started detecting traps. I then switched it back to the advanced AI and forced her to stop detecting traps and then she started back again. So I decided to try her in combat and she seems to be working fine now. I tried switching her script off totally before and then
    re-enabling the "Advanced AI" but it did nothing.
    All seems well now though. Thanks xosmi!

    I never bother with any scripting or AI during the IE games. The level of micro-management required in those games wasn't so bad back then.

    I almost never actually used my spells. I always said "I'll wait for a bigger fight" and thus cast very few spells. This advanced AI works really well for me.
