GetAI()

You can cast it to smartai if that’s what you need, granted they use sai there won’t be issues

sorry, let me give some context. i'm trying to have this stupid bat have the `npc_batrider` script assigned in the database, but if i detect that it's not a boss summon i want it to use the SAI entries in the DB. the way i'm attemping to go about this is with `me->SetAI()` inside the script, but I have to construct the AI I'm assigning and then determine how to activate it correctly. so far... it is not done yet.

the AI is resisting being replaced. I tried doing SmartAI in the DB and then replacing it with `SetAI()` and my `npc_batrider` AI I created, but the scheduling doesn't work correctly when I do it that way.

```c++
// enable SmartAI for the creature, replacing this script
me->SetAI(new SmartAI(me));
```
was my first attempt, but that ends up with a bat that doesn't run any of its SAI action.

Yeah no you can’t replace AI during run time
