Monsters vs. Monsters

Here's the code:

float() FindTarget =
{
local entity client;
local float r;
local vector dist;
dist = self.enemy.origin - self.origin;

// if the first spawnflag bit is set, the monster will only wake up on
// really seeing the player, not another monster getting angry

// spawnflags & 3 is a big hack, because zombie crucified used the first
// spawn flag prior to the ambush flag, and I forgot about it, so the second
// spawn flag works as well


if (sight_entity_time >= time - 0.1 && !(self.spawnflags & 3) )
{
client = sight_entity;
if (client.enemy == self.enemy)
return;
}
else
{
client = checkclient ();
if (!client)
return FALSE; // current check entity isn't in PVS
}


if (client == self.enemy)
return FALSE;

if (client.flags & FL_NOTARGET)
return FALSE;
if (client.items & IT_INVISIBILITY)
return FALSE;

r = range (client);
if (r == RANGE_FAR)
return FALSE;

if (!visible (client))
return FALSE;

if (r == RANGE_NEAR)
{
if (client.show_hostile < time && !infront (client))
return FALSE;
}
else if (r == RANGE_MID)
{
if ( /* client.show_hostile < time || */ !infront (client))
return FALSE;
}

self.enemy = client;
if (self.enemy.classname != "player")
{
self.enemy = self.enemy.enemy;
if (self.enemy.classname != "player")
{
self.enemy = world;
return FALSE;
}
}

FoundTarget ();

if (self.health <= 35) // make the blood
Bleeding1(self);

return TRUE;

if (self.watertype == CONTENT_LAVA) // do lava damage
T_Damage (self, world, world, 10*self.waterlevel);

if (self.watertype == CONTENT_SLIME) // do slime damage
T_Damage (self, world, world, 6*self.waterlevel);

if (self.watertype == CONTENT_WATER) // do water damage
T_Damage (self, world, world, 3*self.waterlevel);
};[code]

I'm an average coder, this seemingly simple task is driving me nutz!
I've tried numerous code changes to no avail.
Can someone please point me in the right direction. Thanks.
