[96] Non-friendly monsters still target NOTARGET friendly's

A non-friendly monster is getting hit by a friendly monsters with the +NOTARGET flag applied to it, yet the non-friendly tries to attack it.

That's intended behavior. Friendliness overrides +NOTARGET.

Any possible way around this?

What exactly do you need?

Well I have a gun turret which I want to attack any non friendly monsters but I don't want the non friendlies to attack back at them. That's right, I want them either sit there and take the damage or run after another target (Don't worry I have reasons).

For .96 you can't do anything at all.
For .96x I added an additional check that prevents monsters from targetting non-shootable things (because monsters in Heretic attacked the volcanoes.) If that gets added to the official version you can just specify '-SHOOTABLE'.

.....Would you kill me if I wanted players to be able to destroy them?

Heh I knew that was coming. It's okay I can live without it. Thanks.

Use a second invisible thing and ACS. When the thing is destroyed, destory the turret. The invisible thing won't be targeted by the monsters.
