Yea I like this idea. Maybe the same kind of mechanism for extinguished lights causing an alert to a guard. (which I saw earlier in this thread)

Wouldn't a good thief always remember to close doors behind him? I generally close doors if for no other reason so that the guard can't see me in there.

ooh got it...thanks for the clarification It's interesting because looking at the code it looks like there's a lot of interesting AI going on, but the results are that sometimes the AI doesn't seem too smart. I wonder part of it is these flags are not being used enough. But maybe there's still some refining of the AI to do to make it start looking good. But the foundation is there I believe.

I'm confused why this doesn't happen because I was looking at the source today and I see where there is AI to make the guards notice an opened door that's not supposed to be open: [/size] // Is it supposed to be closed? if (!stimSource->spawnArgs.GetBool(AIUSE_SHOULDBECLOSED_KEY)) { // door is not supposed to be closed, ignore return; } // Is it open? if (!door->IsOpen()) { // ignore closed doors return; } // Vocalize that see something out of place memory.lastTimeVisualStimBark = gameLocal.time; owner->commSubsystem->AddCommTask( CommunicationTaskPtr(new SingleBarkTask("snd_foundOpenDoor")) ); gameLocal.Printf("That door isn't supposed to be open!\n"); [size=2]
