bots help

Post by **Shad0wdane** » Thu Jun 30, 2005 4:16 pm

alright I'm pretty much done with my map but testing bots and stuff... and its been a WHILE since I did any mapping and I've forgotten all the bot debugging commands and stuff to test and see path finding and junk.

I compiled the AAS with -forcesidesvisable -optimize -bsp2aas

but when I ran the map and loaded some bots they didn't move just stood still at the spawn and wouldn't move until I shot at them.. once I killed them or I was killed they stood in place until engaged them again.

Help plz! thx

hmm.. not sure what I did but I fixed it! :P

I need to place some more cluster portals and bot_roam's though as they don't play it well currently.

did you compile with the -meta switch during BSP? If not, I can't recall the BSPC switch but iirc either the -forcedivisable or the -optimize is giving your the grief. Try only compiling with a default BSP and BSPC and see what happens...

And you do have weapons/items in the map right?

Only use -forcesidesvisible when you've compiled the map with -meta.

In other words, always compile with -meta in BSP and -forcesidesvisible in BSPC.

You should always use the meta switch when compiling with Q3Map2 but it results in brain-dead bots - so we use forcesidesvisible to compensate.
