This information is not adjustable:
HP - Shows the current and maximum Hit Points of
the NPC.
Skill - This is the best non-combat skill that the
NPC knows.
Carrying - The current and maximum weight that this
NPC can carry.
Melee Dam - The current Melee Damage bonus for this NPC.
APs - How many Action Points this NPC has.
You can press the following buttons:
Use Best Weapon - This will force the NPC to stop
using their current weapon and use the best weapon
in their inventory. The choice of the best weapon
depends on the Weapon Preference of the NPC,
something that is part of their Disposition (see
below.) Unlike the player character, NPCs cannot
use all weapon types. Individual NPCs will be
trained in the use of different weapons. The newly
selected weapon will be displayed.
Use Best Armor - This will force the NPC to stop
wearing their current armor and use the best armor
in their inventory (which could be the armor they
are currently wearing.) Unlike the player
character, their image will not change when they
wear new armor. Trust us, they are wearing the new
duds, but you just can’t see it. The display will
show what armor the NPC is wearing and they will
get the benefit of the armor’s Armor Class, Damage
Threshold and Damage Resistance.
Disposition - This controls the way the party member
acts in combat. Some NPCs do not allow particular
dispositions to be set. If a really butch combat
guy joins your party, he may just say no if you try
and set him to the Coward disposition. Press one
