Just a quick an dirty set of custom GM commands to make controlling NPCs a bit easier:
'xwalk will cause a targeted NPC to walk to a targeted location
'xrun will cause a targeted NPC to run to a targeted location

Each time a location is targeted for either command, another cursor immediately pops up requesting another location - that way one can keep moving the same NPC without having to re-issue the command over and over.

To use, save the below script as 'xmove.js' in your UOX3/js/commands/custom/ folder, then assign the script a unique ID in the [COMMAND_SCRIPTS] section of UOX3/js/jse_fileassocations.scp. Example:

[COMMAND_SCRIPTS]
{
...
1100=commands/custom/xmove.js
}

Reload javascript engine/restart UOX3, and start controlling those NPCs!
