I'm trying to make some raider NPCs for a Fallout RP server I'm on.
So far I have the NPC part down.

It's not enough though. They make combine sounds upon death and use combine animations. I'd like them to use citizen animations but still be hostile. In addition I've ripped a bunch of taunts from Fallout 3. I want to use them on the raiders so they randomly say some threatening one-liners, say some things when they're engaged with an enemy, and make proper death sounds.
Plus I want them to be able to function on a map without nodes. I know it sounds dumb. However I don't give a shit if the NPC decides to rambo it's way into combat head on. I mean, it's a raider. That's what they do.
I have no idea what I'm doing, and I can't find an understandable guide to SNPCs. I checked the Gmod wiki page on SNPCs, but it's useless on account of not telling me HOW to code for MYSELF.
[url]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/?title=Basic_Scripted_NPC[/url] <- That's the wiki page.
Now mind you I have no experience with LUA coding. Zero. So if you care to explain how to make an SNPC, make sure it's absolutely retard proof.
[b]Edit:[/b] Realized I posted this in the wrong forum a split second after posting. Would a mod be so kind as to move it? I can't figure out how to delete it. "Go Advanced" isn't working on my browser.
Basically everything in cl_init.lua and shared.lua can be copied and pasted. The init.lua is where you do your own tasks, which are pretty straight forward. It even includes an example of one task.

Is that so? Well ok, now what about where I actually put these files?
For sake of reference I still want to know what everything does.
Download a random NPC off garrysmod.org and see how they did it. (you will soon see all the little mistakes they have in them)

[b]S[/b]NPC.
The S stands for Scripted. I already made a crappy random NPC. See video.
