I'm trying to set up an event in a small city area: when the player walks into a certain area (roombrush) AI should come out from a small room (most preferably from behind a locked door) and start patrolling the street.

I've used PatrolTrap in T2, but it seems there's no such trap in T1. So, what would be a good way to set up an event where the player gets in a certain room (TrigRoomPlayer) and then AI starts patrolling the street?

I've already used TeleportTrap but it doesn't seem to work properly for this event. I wanted the AI to start the patrol when it teleports into the street, but the AI won't patrol.

You can also have the AI just standing behind the door but without the patrol property. Then you set up a conversation to be triggered when the player enters a certain area (most likely via a concrete room brush with TrigRoomPlayer script on it).

In the conversation (let's assume the AI is named Dave), you would put the following operations:

Add/Remove Metaproperty
Add
M-DoesPatrol
Dave

Assuming Dave is standing on a TrolPt that's linked to other points as usual, he should start patrolling at that point. Don't forget to give Dave a key to the locked door....
