lol, a kamakazii thing would be extremly funny to see... but that would be good for breakthrough so the bot can just cook off a grenade as he runs up to you lol

Hello jv, how are you? Any progress with ze bots?

Post by **jv_map** » Sat Aug 28, 2004 8:56 am

Well yes I unleashed them in V2 and they now climb ladders etc but I'm not very happy with them yet regardless because they usually act stupid and kill themselves with the nades

Hey jv, are the bots doing any better? The fact that we've stopped spamming you with bot requests doesn't mean we've lost interest. Just thought you should know

question: is it possible to modify the sp AI through scripting?

anything that improves your other bots would be cool as there top banana!
how about that they dont just spawn as us and german? they use pistols etc when they RUN out of ammo , use smoke nades etc.

Didn't they climb ladders in the previous version as well?

Yes they did but now they can actually find paths across ladders

what i'm doing in Euro is kinda liek this, tweaking performance to make them unpredictable throguh mostly a trigger system, but not really.
you have to update the programming, and JV said that the anim code and all that is so fu**ed up that even the devs got confused. my bet's on it was Mackey's Fault...

Hey Jv, do the new bots still fire their weapons while they're throwing a grenade? I'll be finishing exams in two weeks time so a new beta around that time would be nice

What's Euro? Could you give me a link?

No, definately not

they now use a 'bot state machine' script which is basically a compiled version of mike_legs.st and mike_torso.st translated to .scr... this means they'll never be able to fire 2 weapons simultaneously, no matter how stupid the actual AI logic is

I'll be finishing exams in two weeks time so a new beta around that time would be nice

hmmm.... busy busy busy
