If you want to setup relationship towards a certain entity `class`, use <page>NPC:AddRelationship</page>. <note>NPCs do not see <page>NextBot</page>s by default. This can be fixed by adding the <page text="FL_OBJECT">Enums/FL</page> flag to the NextBot.</note> <bug issue="5247">The `priority` field is ignored in this functon and always set to `1`.
