    Hey,

    1. The default way-point walking will have the creature retrace there path, not continue walking in the same direction.

    2. Check that the way-points all have the proper name / number for their tags. This is critical because the default system looks for way-points with tags like WP_[CREATURE TAG]_[SEQUENCE NUMBER]. The easiest way to check this, is to select the creature in the area. All the waypoints that the creature will walk should appear connected by a line.

    found memory leak, please verify
    This is a poor way to try and detect a memory leak. The memory could have easily been released back to the heap manager. However, if the heap manager doesn't release pages back to the operating system, the numbers you are seeing will not change. Even if the heap manager isn't releasing the pages, it still isn't a leak since the heap manager will use those pages for other memory allocation requests.

    monks
    While monks are not the strongest early level characters, at higher levels they have access to a large number of attacks per turn, various resistances/immunities, and have the best base saving throws of any class.
