Heh...

I just use this code for my walking and attacking:

mob/Monster/New()
AI_MOVE(5,80,1,1)
AI_ATTACK(world.view,13,19,1,1)
AI_LIFESPAN(rand(300,500),1,1)

I provide a fix for this problem in the Deadron library. It has a dd_step_rand() function that provides intelligent randomness, so that mobs seem like they are going somewhere. You can even set how random they are.
