My fix was similar, but I did the check at the top of the function that I
wrote called hunt_victim(). hunt_victim() is called from mobile activity.
If the mob isn't hunting anyone, or isn't standing, then the function
returns right away. If there's someone to hunt and the mob is standing it
goes on and tries to track down the player. Even goes so far as to open
doors that are in the way if the mob's intel is high enough. *grin*
