Glossary

Because everyone just ASSUMES you know what all these mean…I know I didn’t when I first started!

CS – Construction Set
NPC – Non-Player Character. The people you interact with in the game.
PC – Player Character. You!
AI – Artificial Intelligence. How the NPC acts according to certain scripts included in the game engine. For example, most NPC’s have the Wander package activated, which causes them to move somewhat randomly around the point where they are placed in the CS, out to a certain radius.
Script – A “mini-program” written in the Morrowind scripting language that controls the actions of an NPC, item or any other countless things. Scripts are “attached” to objects.
