simplen00b 97 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Not really a screenshot but a mish mash of nonsense I took out of my speedrun-ish videos. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKLR2eexC4QThat really shouldn't have made me laugh but it did. Particularly liked (i) the technique of continuing to hit AI even after they were KO'd; (ii) the sweet ickle spider (at 4.45). It looked like it was begging! While you were clubbing it to death. Re the two AI from the first sequence (Score to Settle) - I guess they weren't on the same team - or something??? Seemed odd that they didn't both gang up on him at once.

Springheel 4613 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 It looks like there were some pathfinding problems in that section of the street. There were small spots where the AI acted like they couldn't reach the player, but take one step forward and then they could.

RJFerret 270 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Overzealous monsterclipping typically. There are a few other FMs players can exploit like in that one. Lack of providing monsterclip terrain is another possible reason (if not near decorative objects). The solution is to limit monsterclip to the size of the objects, and not run it to the sky when not appropriate. That part is easy to see. The harder part is realizing if ground patchwork got too high over the underlying brushes and requires a supporting step of monsterclip underneath, since lowering a vertex in one spot might raise surfaces in another. The only way I know is to test heavily by running around with an AI chasing you all over, coming from each direction and watching to see if they stop to pull out a rock to throw at you or run around something you expected them to follow straight over.

simplen00b 97 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I had something similar at one point playing nuThief. Got spotted by a guard, so I ran and cowered in a corner - the guard saw me, came right up to me with his sword drawn, and then (for no reason I could see) suddenly backed off and started throwing stones at me. He did this a few times, then on the third or fourth approach decided he could thwack me after all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Sotha 1908 Posted May 16, 2014 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Looks like grayman has done some tactical AI improvements recently: "Tango down.""Squad, protect the VIP.""Storm the front! Flashbang the room, then assault! Go Go Go!" This was very lifelike situation I encountered when I tested AI getting up from sleep by fleeing AI. I bashed the nobleman dead, let the noblewoman find the body. She freaked out, ran away and came back with these boys. They gathered tactically at the door before going in. I was utterly amazed, but was able to get a screenshot of it. They cannot see me because of notarget. 6 Quote Clipper-The mapper's best friend. Link to post Share on other sites

Xarg 173 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 That may be true, but it also seems they aren't filled with anything, look at that thing flopping around like a ragdoll (pun not intended, but I'm totally going with it), like it weighs nothing. Perhaps their mass is broken?

Springheel 4613 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 How much would you expect a zombie to weigh? They're mostly skin and bones.

Xarg 173 Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 After a quick googling, the skeleton plus the skin, I'd expect 15-20kg, plus a few more for whatever muscle remained. Call it 25kg?.. and having worked a job where that was a unit of weight I hefted around regularly, I wouldn't expect to flip it around like a large, rotting sock puppet. Especially at the distance it was being held, which would exert a fair amount of torque on the spine and arms of the person swingin' them around. Buut fantasy is as fantasy does, it just seems a little odd that the zombie was that easily moveable.

Sotha 1908 Posted April 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Sometimes, when you put two AI on the same RIT network they can do surprising things. That's the main idea of the RIT: increase unpredictability. I was noclipping around my map, looking for errors and testing stuff when I saw these two AI getting all cuddly. Prolly they thought they had some privacy from their creator and had a soft moment. Even an AI needs some love, right? 2 Quote Clipper-The mapper's best friend. Link to post Share on other sites
