How can I make NPCs walk on top of eachother?

I want to make my NPCs have the ability to walk on the same tile as one another but by default they cannot. Is there an easy way to change this?

The reason I want this is because I'm making a 2 player game in which player #1 controls NPC #1, and player #2 controls NPC #2. I intended to make a collectable item represented by NPC#3 so when the player steps on that item, the item is picked up. The game won't let me do this though since my NPC characters are unable to step on the same spot as the item NPC.

Well, "suspend obstruction" script command will let NPCs walk on each other... but that would also let the two player-controlled NPCs walk over top of each other, which I'm guessing isn't what you want to happen.

There should be a way to do this, though. One of the "scripted non-RPG game" people will probably respond with a better answer any minute now... XD

set NPC obstructs should work.

Ahh perfect. Thanks both of you. My player NPCs never come in contact but if I do end up making some NPCs that need obstruction I guess I'll use the later.
