NPCs, if given a shape(via setshape() or showcharacter()) are considered walls via onwall().

However, this requires NPCs to block which may not be desired, and will end up emulating almost exactly what Thor is doing anyways... he could fall back on triggeraction when it hits a wall but I don't like to recommend triggeraction.

Good point... I had in mind it only being used a cheats way to make things work with the average npc character though, but yes... I was wrong to suggest such a horrid solution
