	Reactions from behaviour scripts are only active if at least one player character is "nearby" (currently: within 30 meters). This routine can be used to force '''_Character''''s reactions to remain active even if no player ~~character~~ are nearby, by passing '''1''' as '''_Bool'''. Once the character's behaviours no longer need to remain permanently active, you can make its activity status again depend on the nearness of a player character by calling it with '''0''' as '''_Bool'''.
